Review of The Eminence in Shadow Season 2

This anime continues to effortlessly blend top-tier meta-satire with phenomenal, epic visuals and displays of power, and somehow persists to be one-of-a-kind when it doesn't seem so different from it's peers in the isekai/fantasy genre. The plot direction is surprisingly spotless and really quite admirable. It's impossible to guess where the story is going, but it just works out perfectly while bringing you to a new, unexpected course. All of this allows for one of the most easily enjoyable experiences in anime history. But: Regardless of how flawlessly executed this is, it doesn't present with any astounding narrative that links to a theme or message. It hardlydelves into any of these points that make for some of the greatest stories, so if looking for a genius story that accomplishes these things, I would never look to this, which is again, why it is one of the most *easily* enjoyable experiences, not one of the most enjoyable experiences anime has to offer.
The Eminence in Shadow is a tremendous achievement that, to me, will probably stay the greatest anime that I would categorize as "junk food". It is a ball of fun. A simplistic, but very FUN ball of fun.
