Review of The Eminence in Shadow Season 2

The only real downside of this season is that it’s only 12 episodes long. It delivers on story, humor, and some very well-animated fights. The main character continues to shine—overpowered yet hilarious, making every scene he's in entertaining. Side stories are present and enjoyable, but due to the short length of the season, it feels like some of them got cut or were only briefly touched upon. With just a few more episodes, there could’ve been a lot more depth to the supporting cast. The art style holds its ground, keeping the same quality and pace from Season 1. Even as the series approaches three years sinceits debut, the visuals remain impressive—especially for this type of anime. Action scenes are crisp, and the atmosphere fits the world perfectly.

I would 100% recommend this season, especially if you enjoyed the first one. It’s one of those shows I love to rewatch whenever I need a break from the muddy pool of mid-tier seasonal anime. It’s entertaining, well-made, and definitely worth your time.
