Synopsis

Enticed by its rumored wealth, Cid Kagenou happily tags along with his sister, Claire, on a trip to the infamous Lawless City. The region is ruled by three monarchs: Yukime, the Spirit Fox; Juggernaut, the Tyrant; and Elisabeth, a dormant progenitor vampire known as the Blood Queen. Hunting Elisabeth down serves as the perfect opportunity for Claire to prove her true mettle. On the other hand, Cid has different objectives—sneaking away from Claire's sight, collecting as much loot as possible, and making Shadow's glorious entrance at the perfect moment.

As Elisabeth's awakening draws near, her subordinate Crimson enacts a treacherous plot, sending the town into a frenzy. Searching for her now-missing brother, Claire finds an unexpected ally in Mary, a vampire hunter, and the pair hurry to the Crimson Tower—the home of the Blood Queen. Meanwhile, Beta and a small team of Shadow Garden recruits also arrive at the Lawless City. As the key players converge on the Crimson Tower, the stage is set for a grand confrontation under the crimson moon.

"We only have so much time, and so much effort. So I dedicated all of my time and effort to what mattered, and got rid of everything else."

These days for me, I tend to lose interest in a lot of shows after their first season (maybe because it was rushed or maybe it was simply that the concept was good but the progression got stale or boring). We all only have a limited amount of time, some people more than others, so should you spend your own precious time watching this? In short, yes, assuming you have watched season 1 this season builds upon the ...

Mixed Feelings

It was okay. It's not a masterpiece nor the best anime of the century, and it's not even trying to be. Even the anime isn't taking itself seriously and I liked this one about it. It's comedic, light, enjoyable but that's pretty much it. It's perfect for watching something mindless after work with my 2 braincells left. It's not for everyone tho. If you can't ignore the unneccessary harem scenes, the fact that some characters have the personality of a rock which they are trying to overcompensate with breast size, or overlook the obvious logical holes in the plot, then it's really not for ...

Not Recommended

FunnyKage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! 2nd Season (38)

I watched this series on a light recommendation from a brother. The series is a mix of" One Punch Man" meets Sword Art Online only without any likeable characters, reasonable character progression or a story worth watching. It baffles me that it has a mal score above 4.

The story is terrible. I was bored throughout, not caring about any of the characters' stories, and wondering when the series would get good.
The art is adequate. It is the only slightly redeeming part of this anime.
Watching this series is like listening to someone tell you about the dream they had last night.

Skip this series.
