The sequel to a fairly amusing anime, it had potential. Of course, now that I've seen it, that potential is mostly gone. The first portion of the series was successful because it had a story and theme which made sense. It allowed the viewer to empathize and join the journey of the main characters. The second portion tries to piggy back on this while making stretches to fill in plot gaps that are pretty unacceptable.
When watching anime, it is unfair to ask the writers to give us something believable, because that's not what anime is about. But all we can ask for is that if we are given incredible situations, that they be resolved appropriately. I won't give any spoilers, but the ending is particularly disappointing in this regard.
Overall, my grade for this is a C-
Here's the breakdown
Animation: 8
Story: 5
Music: 8
Char. Models: 7
X Factor: 0
Score: 7.0
Note: X Factor rating is a bonus of sorts. It's added to those anime's who do something new or have that "Je ne sais Quoi" factor.
