Review of The Eminence in Shadow Season 2

This review will make sure you have the correct expectations before watching season 2. Season 2 is superior to the first half of season 1, however, it does not reach the heights of the second half of season 1, at least for me. Why is that? Season 2's comedy is superior. Season 2's 3 story arcs are more interesting. Cid's annoying school friends Jada/Hyoro (that need to be killed off ASAP as they ruin the show) are only predominate in 1 episode in season 2. It also maintains its top tier animation. Unfortunately Season 2's fight scenes are inferior. The witch of Calamity vs Shadowand Beatrix/Iris vs Shadow are still in my opinion the best of the show. Season 2's fight scenes are short lived and feel like they're over before they begun. In my opinion the best two fight scenes in season 2 occur in episode 6 and they are very short. Lowering your expectations of the fight scenes before watching season 2 will result in you preferring Season 2 to Season 1. PS Delta has moved up to the 2nd best character in the show after Shadow.

Eminence of the shadow is peak anime but you should already know that after watching season 1. I really hope we will continue to receive future seasons and see where this roller coaster takes us.

Overall whilst writing this review I have decided I prefer Season 2 over Season 1. Just lower the expectations of the fight scenes and know they are shorter than those of season 1.
