So a new season starts, and the girls were summoned to Cephiro again. I wonder what's gonna happen this time.

I see a flying battleship cruiser. Why do I see a flying battleship cruiser.

Wait, nevermind, I'm gonna go with it and see where this goes.

Nice start to season 2. I wonder how Hikaru, Umi, and Fuu got summoned back to Cephiro. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that Cephiro is a world of will, or maybe the rune gods summoned the magic knights back to Cephiro.

I think I like the OP from season 1 better than the new one. But the new ED is pretty groovy!

Good way to start the 2nd half, I especially liked having a little peek into the daily/family lives of each of the three girls, gives a better perspective to them.
Also, that ending is so c h o i c e. I definitely won't be skipping it. ;)

It was an alright start to the second season. For now I'm going to assume that either the girls sent themselves back or the woman from Hikaru's dream summoned them.

I'm not sure how I feel about the plot being about foreign invaders this time, but we'll see.

In this episode, you get to see some of the protagonists' family members. Hikaru has 3 older brothers. Umi is an only child (I assume) and it's a bit strange to append "san" to your sister's name don't ya think, Kuu?

So the girls are back in Cephiro. How though? Hopefully that'll be explained sooner than later. There's no pillar and the world looks dark, gloomy and lonely

Not sure how I feel about this first episode. Kinda felt like one big exposition dump. Guess we'll see how it goes from there

I really like Hikaru's hair. That OVA did not do it justice.

Well, it sure was easy to get back to Cephiro, lol. I kind of wish we had stayed on Earth for at least a couple of episodes. It was nice to see our girls' normal lives. It'd definitely be interesting to delve into those a little more.

That being said, at least they introduced the concept of other countries. So at least we are expanding the boundaries beyond Cephiro one way or another.

I liked this as the first episode, I felt like it did a pretty good job of pulling us back into everything.

It wasn't hard at all to go back it seems, lol.

I like how this started, and conditions for a great new adventure are all present here. Cephiro looks bleak... and another country? What? Guess our heroines have to save the world again.

Many new characters introduced in the op, they look very cool.

And the artistry in this episode was top notch, love the hole scenery. The colors in the Tokyo Tower part were lovely.

Can't wait to see what happens!

So, were they really summoned back to Cephiro by someone, or did their hearts allow them to travel back there?

Either way, Cephiro is in even worse shape than before, and I have no doubt that whomever Hikaru saw in her nightmares is playing a role in its continuing destruction.
