Assassination Classroom 2nd Season - Reviews

Oh Assassination Classroom... Great anime, it really is. It got me hooked up since episode 1 from the first season. The story is great and ones you get some back story from Koro Sensei's life it gets you even more exited to keep watching. The ending was awesome, but really I would've liked any kind of ending. When adding the soundtrack it almost drove me to tears. Well to be honest it actually got me a bit. But you cant help but feel that way when you've been withe the series for so long. You get attached to some characters like Koro Sensei. He was great character, funny, kind to the kids and he loved them so much. The studens grew so much for the year they were with Sensei. they changed a lot form the beggining of the series. The animation was really good as well, really satisfying. That's my opinion on the series, I strongly recommend it to anyone. Just give it a try and you might get hooked up just like me.

This season is far better than the first, and delivers more of a serious tone with a lot of story and character development. Think back to the last several episodes from the first season, and this will be more like that, and less focused on daily school life. The ending is sure to have a meaningful impact as it isn't what you would standardly see. Comedy still remains on the low end like season 1, but what is delivered is very entertaining, so it is forgivable.

We continue right where Season 1 left off. There is no shortage of action or stuff happening and progressing. We get far less emphasis on doing side activities that fall under the "daily life/school life" scenario, as most episodes focus on serious progression as this is the final season. I found the story to weigh a lot more heavily, there are several aspects that have a dark element to them. That theme continues throughout the entire season and it simply works. Comedy clearly wasn't the strongest point or the reason to watch, and it's why I say that if you so much as even found S1 decent, you will find S2 far better as you just get a lot more story. 

There is also a lot of focus on character development as well, especially compared to S1. The main characters you saw the focus  on in S1 will continue to develop here, but there also some surprising developments with a few additional members that you'll have to find out. It's a critical factor that when combined with the story progression, really makes this season stand out. Again, quite a few of the character developments are dark in nature which makes it hard to predict stuff. There are a few times a character does something you won't have seen coming.

Once again, the theme of "group effort" and bonds shines through. It's something I find cool since so many Anime focus on a few characters, or just toss a bunch of randoms in to make a group. Just like S1, each character has their special talent, and they work together to make up for those shortcomings or use each other as support.

The decision for the ending fits if you listen to the reasons given by the students throughout, it makes sense. The choices made and the events leading up create some real meaning and conclude 50ish episodes of time quite well. It's quite far from generic and the unpredictable nature turns it into a memorable experience. You get a good sense of closure with not much left unanswered, no cliffhangers or unfinished business. That is certainly something many other Anime out there can't say.

There was a lot more music this season. I personally enjoyed having Dubstep put in, and they really went all out with the amount of songs playing in the later episodes. The opening and endings were still an odd choice, and I think they could have found something more fitting.

Overall it was a very good season, a big improvement over the first for sure. Despite the comedy lacking still, the action, story, character development, and progression made up for it. The darker components kept things interesting and harder to predict, while providing some twists. A very strong ending with little left unanswered sets it a notch above many others out there, not to mention its bizarre theme to begin with.

Review of Season 1 ; Scored 7

Ansatsu Kyoushitsu is ... an odd series, I admit. A lot of people may take one look at this series and bypass it due to the odd bright yellow octopus like creature it showcases. But those people are missing out. This is actually a fabulous series and I'm incredibly glad I picked it up. Originally, I was one of those people. I saw Koro-sensei, read the summary, and flew away (metaphorically people, I can't actually fly. I'm not a bird. -_-"). However, boredom brought me back. Viva la boredom! xD

The first season of this series was 22 glorious episodes that unfortunately ended with me feeling cheated as it cut off right in the middle of an arc. When the sequel was announced I was very eager to see what came next for this series (as I'd not read up on the manga...).

However, I wasn't expecting the second season to also be the last. Very few anime actually finish with the manga. I hadn't expected that this would be one of the minority. But am I ever glad that it is! We were given 25 thrilling episodes that kept me on the edge of my seat right up until the very end.

The animation is of the same quality as the previous season, which is quite good. The OST is catchy as hell and I adored it. However, what really made the sequel shine was the advancing plot, and the character development that happened as the series drew to a close. Plus, I actually liked the ending.

Overall, a very enjoyable series that I recommend to all fans of shounen anime! Give it a go!

Watching the second season was so much better and enjoyable than the first. First season was good, and it did take me some episodes to get into it, but second season was made better. Season 1 seemed it was the learning lesson season and then Season 2 was the actual mission season.

Animation and sound were just as great in this one as the first. I rather enjoyed the opening theme of this season.

Characters had good build up and interaction, and they integrated Itona into the class pretty smoothly. Finally, got some background on Koro-sensei and that was a lot to take in after a while.

Overall this was a very good anime to watch all together and had a great ending as well. Maybe will be able to watch again sometime in the future.

Listen, this anime is amazing! It starts off funny and humourous leaving you with tears and your stomach hurting. And in the end, it leaves you with tears and pain in your heart. This anime is the best anime I have ever seen, it is truly a masterpiece. You will find koro-sensei brilliant, funny and so so so much more. Please! Watch it! Each and every episode teaches you a lesson, that you can achieve something, no matter who you are. Please, watch this, it's amazing. I have shed tears MULTIPLE times! I say this for both season 1 AND season 2.
