I actually enjoyed the episodic nature of this season, because we got to see some good character development. That's why I like S2 more than S1, but if there were to be a S3 (and I really hope so!), I'd like to see it follow a plot. S2's plentiful character development sets the stage well for a S3, so let's cross our fingers and hope for a third season!

And that's what happens when you mess with a member of Libra and Klaus gets angry.
Overall i liked this season better. The first one had a messy plot, so i like how instead they decided to focus on the members of libra since each of them is a very interesting character. I hope S3 follows the same formula and we get to see them in more over the top situations.

Season 3 please ! :( this season was really more like an episodic anime
the same as season 1 but season 1 more had more plots
and this season had an actual plot only in the lastest 2 episodes
of course the rest of the epiosdes were fun and we knew a lot about other characters and enjoyed seeing K.K and her family episode
but this way , this anime should be at least a 50 episodes anime , at least give us 2 cours in 1 go , not 12 episodes every 2 years .... but as long as there is another season , I'll wait

Outstanding season of Kekkai Sensen. So odd to see so many negative reviews on the front page. Yes, maybe the first season had more of a "plot" but the writing for said plot was definitely lacking in a few areas. I remember the final episode not being too great. And it didn't help that we had to wait 25 years for it too.

Again, what made this season so great was the constant focus on the side and minor characters. Chain and K.K. won big time this season. I love them. And behind it all, there was the plot with Leo and his sister, and the season ended on that note. Reminds me of Cowboy Bebop, in a way.

Trigun, Gungrave, and now Kekkai Sensen. Yasuhiro Nightow's a fucking legend.

Can someone tell me, what's the meaning of Leo message to Klaus when he trying to say that there is monster around his sister? the one "10-33" word.

Finally the the protagonist gets his moment in the finale as expected. Leo was almost a side character in the middle of the series and he sometimes not even enough screen time. I must say the first season was better than this one but I loved this one because it focused to side characters more. Although I felt it neglected its objective, was so fast paced you sometime don't keep up and it felt like specials put to together or like filler episodes.

I don't know, I am stuck between an 8 and a 7. Be biased because of enjoyment or be critical? What to do?

So satisfying to see Leo stand up for himself, something he struggled with a majority of the season. He was totally badass against that guy. His relationship with Michella is a really special one. But when the entire crew came in to finish that guy off, holy shit was that badass. The ultimate sign of friendship right there.

I really adore this series, I think it's so fun and unique. Its music is stellar and the backdrops are beautiful.

This season did a terrific job giving the other characters the spotlight. It gave us a richer overall experience now that we understand these characters better. We know about who they are, where they came from, what they bring to the table with their powers, and what their upbringing was. This may even enhance the re-watching of the first season now that we know a lot more info about the group.

Excellent season overall. This is a very special series, and I hope one day we can experience some more insane fun with Leo and the gang. 9/10

a great and well-animated fight, also props to Leo for confronting the enemy on his own.

overall this season barely advanced the plot, but it is nice to have an insight on the Libra members' daily lives. needs more Zapp though 7/10

There is no real protagonist to this series from what I can tell.

The story is told through Leo alot but mostly deals with all the characters fairly evenly.

Quite the surprising finale.

Honestly, I don't remember much about the first season, story-wise, besides some of the characters. But this second season has been fun to watch. Especially getting to know more about the other characters in Libra. Liked the episodic format too, and the bits and pieces in between that led to the storyline at the end.

Whatever changes happened in production between the first and second season was probably the right decision.

I think it's great many people received the new season pretty good. Personally it was a big disappointment for me.

I genuinly love the basic setting of the anime including the characters and the story they seem to be first going for (the story of s1), and the last two episodes of this season. However it disappoints me so much that they fill every episode with just background stories and other random stories of people within the city. So the biggest let down for me is that they don't do anything about the story, until episode 11. In my opinion episode 11 could have been episode 3 and they could've worked their way by telling background stories AND focus on story at the same time.

Since the overall enjoyment isn't bad and I do genuinly love aspects of this anime it's a 5/10. However if there will ever be a season 3 I am not going to watch it. After two seasons it's clear to me it is not going to live up to what I was hoping for.

Overall this season was great. No boring arc like in first seson, just fun one-episode stories. Ending was weak, just the scene where Klaus destroyed the bad guy was awesome. But Klaus destroing bad guys is always awesome!
Cool anime, cool characters. I want more of their adventures!

I definitely preferred this season to the first one. There was something more authentic-feeling to it when it was episodic compared to the awkward plot of the first season, perhaps because this season is more like how the original manga was written ((or so I've been told)). I kinda want to read the manga now. Episodic character arcs are very digestible to me and I can take it in small portions.

I give it an 8/10. Really like the characters, the music and the animation was good even by Bones' standards. I still can't figure out why any regular person would want to live in this city, though, lol...

I gave season 1 a 10/10 but season two is a colossal jump up. Leo reacting and not thinking in order to protect his sister it really made him feel human and relatable. It was also a GREAT character growth moment. He had no clue the others where coming back so in his mind he had to beat this monster on his own. Not to mention how much Sonic helped in the previous episode. And the speech Klous gave on top of the hint of Whites spirit landing on Leos hand was so emotionally driven. Overall both seasons get a 10/10 they are both just done right.

I can't believe there are people saying this season was way better than the first one, the first one had personality, this season was just following what the show is and trying to replicate, it lacks the spice that made the first season truly unique.

It's not that it's bad(or terrible) and i'm not saying you can't like this season more, but calling it better is just a disservice for what the first season is.

Impressed by Tortoise knight Leo this episode, dealing with that bastard as long as he could without backing down. Great sequel, don't mind the episodic structure without any main plot (unlike S1 with the anime-only plot) because of the entertaining crazy events each episode. My only big complaint would be that that the best character Sonic deserved his own episode.

Ok, this was just incredible.
I don't really care if the plot didn't move forward that much, the slice-of-life feeling in Kekkai Sensen feels better than the story itself (if that makes sense).
The ending gave me goosebumps, I had tears in my ears (happy tears xD).
Everyone came to save Leo, that moment gave me a heart attack.
I love how fucking furious Klaus was went he heard that Leo is in danger. He's a real man. Every character in Kekkai Sensen is likeable, you can't hate them. They're funny, friendly, strong and amazing.
Last episode had a lot of impact on me and this made me love Kekkai Sensen even more!


This scene was fantastic!

Goodbye! (season 3 please)

Pretty good season, I certainly liked it more than the first one. My only complaint is that Femt's antics would have been in perfect sync with the episodic nature of this season, but he was only in two episodes, and that also for like 2 minutes. 9/10

I'll have to say this, this season made me like Leo more, especially this last episode. He was great, Sonic as well, that one scene was so nice and touching in a way. Also the ending was so hype, the way all of them just appeared there.

It's an ok finale, can't complain, but as much as I don't like filler/original stuff in a manga adaptation, the first season's ending was still better, I liked White a lot and the King of Despair was badass.

Also Femt had more screentime which is the weirdest thing in season 2. Where was Femt??? He appeared in the opening for quite a long time, but he was nowhere to be seen in this season and that was one thing I wanted them to focus on more in season 2 because Femt sounds really intriguing, a thought I got from his talk with Leo in the last season.

But I'll say this, the other episodes focusing on the side characters were such a good addition. Mainly the KK one, that ending was amazing. ALSO MORE FOCUS ON STEVEN!!! He's so fucking badass, I love him.

So all in all, a good season, just couldn't get that ending feeling I got from season 1.

So honestly I was not the biggest fan of this season but this one episode changed all of that. Holy cow. I felt this episode deep down. When they all busted in to save Leo it was that cheesy gitty feeling you sometimes get watching Disney movies but so genuine and pure. Was really hoping White was going to make an appearance at some point this season since she is in the intro and when the flashback occurred was so hopeful (sigh). If the whole season was like this episode I would probably give it a 8 or even a 9

definitely worth the frustration of the last episode. The reasoning behind the tortoise knight was emotional. last few minutes were great until the weird insertion of black. even though i did like black/white. sad there's no season 3 guess i'll read the manga.
