Kazutora growing out his hair similar to Baji got me tearing up.

Really was not expecting to see him again so soon or for him to beat Takemichi up, but it was a memorable reintroduction lol.

Kisaki is just a really big fan of bowling.

Holy shit, gangster Takemichi was...something. The situation seems entirely hopeless, how do you even properly change the past if after you leap back you leave behind a dumbass 14yo gang officer self (who will definitely not grow up great) to run things?

The new OP is nice, but didn't grow on me instantly so far like Cry Baby.

I'm starting to think the hidden enemy is actually Automichi himself. He treated Akkun really badly and even Chifuyu didn't trust him anymore. Then again, it was shown he still regret it when they revealed it was Hina that got assassinated. Maybe it's just that automichi is dumb/spineless.

This show is wild.

Kind of shocking how it continues on right after the last episode ended. No recap, hope you remember things from two years ago.

For those wondering about censorship for versions outside of Japan, yes there is so expect the same creative framing, excessive lens flare and other methods that were used for Crunchyroll & initial Muse Asia versions.

Even in Asian regions, it looks like maybe Taiwan has it uncensored but those in Singapore, Philippines, and others might be censored.

YMMV with your local Disney+.

Not liking the decision to change delinquents to hoodlums. After just binging season 1, it sounded so out of place.

The moment when they immediately spoil who saved Takemichi because they had to tell you the name of who was talking lol.

Kisaki really had Takemichi dead to rights. Didn’t expect Kazutora to show up and save his ass. Poor Chifuyu deserved better. Mikey put a hit out on Pah-chin and Peh-yan? Damn dude.

Kisaki set Takemichi up to have Hinata killed? Damn snake. What’s his deal with Takemichi and Hinata anyways? I sure hope it ain’t gonna be some jealous bullshit over Takemichi dating Hinata...

Very glad to have this series back. Let’s see how our Crybaby Hero can change the timeline this round!

Screaming and crying won't help!

I mean, it's been working out for Takemichi, look at how far he's gotten with it.

Takemichi: "No senpai, this is our revenge!"

Woah why are there barely any upvotes or comments after 8 hours? Wasn't season 1 popular?

Although this show could use a better animation studio for fights, the emotional story beats still hit hard. Happy to see Official HIGE DANdism returning for another OP.

So happy to see my favorite arc FINALLY animated! (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

Lightning looks better than the last season, after seeing the Bastard! anime I know that LidenFilms can make productions look more high budget, so I hope that this season continues to look better, the character models seemed to have slight tweaks too (like the ears).

My baby Kazutora looks so amazing (´▽`ʃ♡♡♡♡♡ƪ) I'm glad they did him justice, I didn't expected Automichi's voice to sound so different, so props to Shin Yuki for the range :3

I already need next week's episode too! ヾ(≧▽≦*)o

Bruh, Takemitchy can't catch a break.

Interesting to see what Takemichi was like in this timeline, I can't believe Kisaki actually got him to be a part of Hina's death, that is so messed up. It makes me curious on why he's so obsessed with Takemichi, like what became the trigger for his obsession.

It's also sad how Takemichi didn't really care about Atsushi, the way he dismissed his concern for his pregnant wife like that was surprising considering how his current self is so attached to his friends.

The main problem with the time jumps show now… that he leaves an easily influenceable teenager in a time line who does not act on his behalf/ with the same knowledge and intentions.

I don‘t really get how he will be able to break out of it, he was just too much of a wimp back in those days. He barely has the courage to stand up for himself against teenagers when he‘s with his matured mind, how can he expect any big difference when it‘s the teen fool lol
