Devil My Cry season two is almost the direct opposite of season one. Everything is done very well. Every single aspect is preposterously better than season one.
This show with season 2 is extremely cool. It would have been a loss to not have seen it.
I also didn’t mind the lady character being protected by plot armor in this season. It wasn’t too much. Season 1 had probably a 100 instances where Lady/Mary should have died and stayed alive because of plot armor. It was much more reasonable in season 2.
There were also several different points of view and people who wanted to influence how things work, including the president, who was really a side character, but still held some influence. This was also quite cool.
You can also tell they just went off the books with this season. Every episode was over 30 minutes long, nothing like normal anime. The intro music was much shorter than what you’d see in normal anime. Several episodes don’t even have a Japanese sub version you can watch.
This is a fantastic show.
