Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, Season 2 / 小林さんちのメイドラゴン S


After last week's rent let me also say a few more positive things about the 2nd season of Dragon Maid. With its muse of characters and its pervasive anarchy the show definitely hit off with the kids.


After the disappointment of the first two seasons I've in fact started to vet the following episodes in advance. To my relief the episode since have settled back into a more familiar mould. The fourth episode in particular was popular with the kids - Tohru against a band of hooligans who had started to terrorise the neighbourhood.


Anybody familiar with the first season will pity the hooligans who have picked the wrong fight. Not even the toughest delinquent in town stands any chance against the Dragon Maid...


In the same episode we also learn about work at Kobayashi's office, where Elma has started to through her weight as a programmer. However, we also learn some less appealing insights into Tohru's original world.


The fifth episode continues this strand and gives an interesting look at the old backstory of Elma from the 'harmony' faction among the dragons and Tohru, paragon of the chaos fraction. Their eternal rivalry competes with an underlying sympathy that neither dares to acknowledge.


We're not yet though will season 2, so we might still be in for surprises, good or bad. But so far again - thumbs up :thumbsup:
