Enen no Shouboutai: Ni no Shou

After his confrontation in the Nether with his younger brother Shou, Shinra Kusakabe's resolve to become a hero that saves lives from the flame terror strengthens. Finding a way to turn the Infernals back into people, unraveling the mystery of the Evangelist and Adolla Burst, and saving his mother and Shou—these are the goals Shinra has in mind. However, he has come to realize that attaining these goals will not be easy, especially with the imminent danger the Evangelist poses.

The Evangelist's plan is clear: to gather the eight pillars—the individuals who possess Adolla Burst—and sacrifice them to recreate the Great Cataclysm from 250 years ago. Having been revealed by the First Pillar that the birth of a new pillar is approaching, Shinra is determined to protect his fellow pillars from the Evangelist. Thus, the fiery battle between the Special Fire Force and the Evangelist ignites. Together with the Special Fire Force, Shinra's fight continues as he uncovers the truth about the Great Cataclysm and the nature of Adolla Bursts, as well as the mysteries behind human combustion.

The second season of Fire Force was significantly better than the first season. It felt faster and better paced as well as building on characters that needed some spotlight. The imagery in Fire Force continues to be more creative and over the top creating extremely cool scenes and fights thanks to the incredible directing choices. This season has some of the most interesting directional choices to showing off being on drugs, PTSD, and pushing limitations which makes this entry all the more better. Tamaki (the walking fanservice character) continues to make the scenes with her in it very worse, ruining full on emotional and hype ... scenes due to her presence. What was a 9 fell to an 8.

Mixed Feelings

The first 7ish episodes can be skipped entirely. I’m not kidding, I wish I did, & you’ll get caught up several times on what went down when the characters talk to each other about it. & don’t worry, if you didn’t know the Empire’s origin story, it’s explained at the beginning of most of the eps AND a second time during one of the eps. Very cool.

If you’re really REALLY into shounen anime & full-episode fight scenes you’ll probably like this season a lot. I can’t knock it for what it is, I just wish then that there weren’t so many cuts back and ... forth between fight x main plot x fight, it made it feel like the fights were just filler.

Felt kinda like if nothing ever happened in the most flashy way possible. I think maybe 2 eps worth of content were relevanf to the plot, & if we discount opening monologue, OP, & ED, that’s maybe 35 minutes?

Liked the Beni eps & eps ~ 7-12.

Overall it was fine.

6/10

I hate long reviews.
The world building of first season is expanded. The search for eight pillars continues, main villains - The Evangelists - have come onto the stage, many mysteries both from prior episodes and from current season still stay unanswered.

Shonen story. Animation is good, at times very good, I like the action and fights are pleasing to watch. Characters are typical shonen cast, each with his/her unique characteristic(1), but even then story progression uses them up too quickly.

tl;dr Typical shonen with highly incoherent story that targets viewers short attention spawn, and at times contradicts itself and prays on viewers awe/ignorance of ... rational thought.
