I liked this even more than season one.
The dynamic between the characters is already well established at this point and we are somewhat familiar with the world so there is a lot more space to develop complex plot lines and delve deeper into the characters' pasts.
I personally really enjoyed getting to know our two mains a bit better as I am quite fond of both of them by now. I also appreciate how well all the plot threads weave together by the end, even if there are just enough loose ends to make me hope for another season.
Overall this delivers more of what made the first season so fun - adventures, mysteries, beautiful outfits, cool swords, and even cooler girls to wield them - and, what's more, improves on some of it.
If you liked the prequel, you'll definitely enjoy this as well so give it a watch if you haven't already.
