Review of Fire Force Season 2
The pacing in the anime is such that I firmly believe that the studio believes they will be making more episodes than Naruto. Story is extremely half-assed and it seems the creator hates the heroes. The main villains are always spared damage and the heroes take serious damage over and over again. That in itself isn't a bad thing but it is handled almost with comedic relief. The death of villains is handled with care and respect while the death of heroes is handled as a very funny joke. The creators have a sense of humor that makes it feel like it all written byNEETs who hate the world, and use the anime as an excuse to destroy characters who have an actual life.
The sound and the art is great, I don't mind the fan-services. The middle episodes feel like a fever dream to me that exist only so that they can plausibly stretch out the anime further. So many characters receive backstories in the middle of combat that I just skip over the BS now. None of it matters, no matter how many power-ups the heroes get, it's all utterly useless against anyone except grunts or the power-up is purposely such that it can only be used as a deus ex machina which requires the heroes to take immense damage before the hero can actually do anything. This season feels DRASTICALLY different from the first season. It's NOT more of the same. They've lost sight of what makes this anime great. If not for all the zoomer normies who watch this anime, it wouldn't have had such a high average score.
I hope this never gets a S3.
