when sequels pop up you find a lot of disappointed people to go with them. sequels have it tough because people expect more of the first, so the second they come up with a new story it's too different. in this case i'm sure everybody wanted to see more "hei and yin" and how they escape and all that. *also, be sure to watch dtb:gaiden before season 2, it may have come out afterwords but should be watched prior; saves you a lot of "wait, where the hell is yin" drama*. SO! try not to look at this as a continuation but rather a freshnew story that goes a long with starting a new anime, because this sequel does in fact have a story of it's own.

the story itself i would grade better than season 1, frankly because the story in season 1 seemed forced into the end *like when you start writing a book, going really great, 100 pages in... then wait, what should the climax be?* also, i really hate filler episodes, season 2 doesn't really have any *probably just because it is only half as long as season 1* - could just be my own speculation but i liked the art in season 2 better as well, they didn't really change anything but quality wise anyway...

intro song - approved ^.
