Review of Nanbaka Season 2

I have wanted to write reviews for awhile but never had the real motivation. Until I watched season 2 of Nanbaka. I will be mentioning season 1 a little bit as I think it handled things much better than season 2. (SPOILERS IN STORY AND CHARACTER) Story: 4 Why you ask? Well, this is honestly my main gripe with the show. The start was amazing. I thought it would be great seeing as how amazing of a villain Enki started out being. But boy did it go downhill so fast. Enki broke out of a prison along with a few other inmates and a prison guard. Theywent into depth about how this had happened and what caused Samon to get chained up. MY ISSUE is with the guard that betrayed everyone, his entire role in the story was being completely insignificant. Just like Enki, besides him being motivation for Ruka. Anyway, the guard, I can't even remember his name. His entire reason for being a traitor was because "he hates work." I've never seen such fucking lazy writing. HE IS TOTALLY IRRLEVANT THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE SEASON, JUST LIKE ENKI!!! Enki does nothing, nothing, what a waste of such a potentially great character. It felt like the author was wasting our time to try and figure out what he wanted Enki to be. It pissed me off how unimportant the main villain was. Ruka and Hachiman were far more important than they needed to be. Spending 5 episodes fighting Ruka was excruciatingly boring, I was interested in him at first but then his character devolved into a copy of the guard from block 3. Anyway, the only real issue I had with the story was the villains and the time spent fighting the insignificant villains.

Art: 9
Great, I love all the bright colors and the action was beautiful as well.

Sound: 9
While the rock soundtrack could be seen as generic, I can't lie, I'm too big of a fan of rock to care.

Characters: 8
This show has some potentially amazing characters. Like I said in the story section I hated how they treated Enki and the other guards. But through this we got some more spotlight on characters like, Nico, Trois, and Honey. Who are now some of my favorites, they are examples of the author doing right with characters.

Enjoyment: 5
Not much to say besides it upset me how the story was not drawn to a close. Or how long those 2 fights lasted.

Overall: 7
I really wanted to love this show as it has a similar feel to Gintama but I found myself more upset with the decisions of the author/animators than anything. I really do like the world and the style, I only wish we got to see more.
