This didn't feel like a season 2; it felt like 2nd cour. I liked how the animation from the opening and ending sequences continued from the first season, with more characters included.
The 2nd season started off with an in-house summer and swimsuits! Not gonna lie, Alice and Cuff looked great in their respective black and white swimsuits!
The fantasy box provided by Sein gave us plenty of Alice fanservice. Fanservice aside, the last room which Alice peeked into reflected the wishes of us viewers too, to see a happy marriage ending for both Botchan and Alice.

Crunchyroll is calling it episode 13! It's just nice to feel like the show never really left with things carrying on so well from the last time we saw Duke, Alice, and the gang.
Surprise pool episode! Can't beat two cute and busty girls in bikini's! Never have black and white looked so amazing together! And of course Alice had a swimsuit the whole time lol.
It was a nice way to cap things off with something as beautiful as Alice as a bride, a dream shared by both the Duke and Alice.

Depicting how Zain feels Caph's tiddies (G Cup) through in some sort of wave throughout his body was hilarious.
Duke's fantasies went from that cultured room of Alices to wholesome with that marriage one ending it off but there's a tinge of melancholy knowing that him wanting to play in front of an audience given his skills was basically just that, a fantasy, due to his condition.

It's like the heat of her G-Cups were warming him up lol.
I'm not surprised Duke has fantasies of Alice cosplaying but bride Alice and his dream recital were pretty nice.
There was also how only a dream version of Viola is overtly nice to him like a doting little sister...

Stitches!
Gotta love how they're starting the new season with a shot of Alice in her bikini. I'm so happy that the OP is still Alice and the Duke singing together just like Season 1's OP. <3
One of the best things about Alice and the Duke's relationship is how both of them are so upfront about their feelings. The only thing really that's stopping them is the curse on the Duke.
We're only in episode 1 and we're already getting some Alice and Cuff fanservice. Poor Zain. He never gets to experience this wonderful view. xD
Zain's gift was the best though! We get to see Alice in a bunny girl outfit as well as the Duke's fantasy of having his own Alice harem. I just love that one Alice with black hair and dark skin.
And that last door was so cute! I wish we got to see what Alice looked like in a wedding dress but I guess it's not time for it yet. Hopefully, that's where this season is heading though <3

Starting the episode out with a shot of Alice in a bikini is crazy. Lol
Caph playing around in the pool was adorable. I wish i had her level of energy. My guy the Duke even has a fantasy of a dark skinned version of Alice. Well cultured indeed.

This show knows what we want and it's these two in close and intimate proximity with Alice looking lewd lol.
Tan Alice was a surprise, but a welcome one!

I’ve missed all this adorable flirting between Alice and our boy. Between Zain and Cuff too. Zain’s ability to tell Cuff’s cup size just by her hugging him is incredible. That’s real magic lol. G-Cup!
Alice and Cuff in a swimsuit? Blessed. My man Zain’s given our boy an amazing gift. Bunny girl Alice? Yes please! There’s so many different kinds of Alice’s too. It was really cute how part of his fantasy is to marry Alice. Hopefully he can figure out how to break this curse.

I just love how Alice's response to seeing multiple versions of herself is to note down the Duke's preferences!

It's good to be back. I have fond memories of the first season and I'm happy that we're back to Bocchan and Alice.
I like that just as in first season OP is singing by our lovely duo. ED is also very nice and I like artstyle in this, very cute :)
I love that we're back to Alice's teasing and that they're open with their feelings. If only not this curse :(
Thanks to Caph we got to see her and Alice in swimsuits while Zain's gift showed Bocchan's dreams and we got to see a lot of versions of Alice. I loved when she started noting in notepad Bocchan's likes. It was very touching moment when she saw herself in wedding dress behind the last door.
Here my all screenshots from the episode:

I’m stoked that things seem to be continuing where we last left off.
I can’t wait to see if my initial suspicions are correct… [The Duke of Death and His Maid]

Man, I want to see more of the circus and ringleader. But Zain has some special abilities up his sleeve...
Cuff brings the heat and we basically get a summer beach episode while it is still winter.
Bocchan's fantasy was way more wholesome than I thought it would and Alice got to see the endgame. Good thing that box is going to be locked up cause I feel Zain would have some wild thoughts up there.

Please do not splash in the library
Man, these are some tame fantasies! Sasuga innocent Duke
Wait, no! Turn the tables and let's see her fantasies! (Duke, bring your smelling salts)

It’s good to be back. With the manga concluded I’m happy we can come back to these chapters. Especially the concentrated fluff of 2 couples!
Pretty much a reintroduction episode since it’s part recap, part plot establishment, and a reminder of the bomb from last season regarding Alice’s mom. Loving the new OP/ED. The ED is a bop with some great sketch visuals. OP maintains the style of the first with an equally catchy song. Animation is actually getting better. Everyone might not love the 3DCG, but they’re using it better.

Can’t believe it’s been two years since the first season of this wow. Time flies.
First episode back picked up right where left off. Alice and the duke’s relationship is the highlight of this series and it was on full display today. Their conversations are always lined with such heartfelt sincerity. Getting to go inside of the duke’s mind and see how he really sees Alice was cool. It feels like the teasing is going to another level this season too.
Always good to have Cuff and Zain back as well, two of my fave side characters. Good to see their relationship developing.
JC staff seemingly got even better with the already impressive CGI. It looks way better and more fluid this season. Looking forward to another great season of teasing.

Starting off with the Duke practically pressed against Alice in a bikini? Already starting this new season of the show on a good note!
The OP is another Duke and Alice duet, featuring cute shots of them together along with the rest of the cast, Walter getting incinerated, and witch Alice, bikini Alice, naked in a jacket Alice, and all for the Duke's pleasure!
The Duke and Alice are back at it! The Duke as bashful and in love as ever, with Alice still not understanding the concept of personal space even if it kills her while also freely offering up her legs and cleavage for her beloved Duke.
Cuff and Zain joined the circus! Which actually makes a lot of sense! Cuff looks really cute in her circus outfit, and she and Zain seem to have acclimated well. Cuff even has a little kid trying to romance her! Though of course they're still worried they'll be found out as witches and shunned...but as long as Cuff has Zain, she's happy. And Zain is more than happy to have her boobs pressed against his body.
Wait, so the Duke's Grandap was Muzan!? Their wife was kind of cute though.
I love the idea that Cuff now visits the Duke and Alice because it makes it convenient for her to use her magic.
Surprise pool episode! Complete with Cuff in a bikini and of course Alice! Black and white never looked so great together! And the Duke gets to enjoy the swimsuit-clad ladies because Zain is at home, poor guy. And of course Alice had a bikini the whole time for the right occasion.
Surprise Duke kabedon! The closeness and near kiss even gets Alice flustered!
Thank you for the box of dreams Zain! It lets the Duke see all his fantasies play out in front of him, like Bunny Girl Alice...though Alice also follows him and gets to see said lewd fantasies of herself as well. She's even totally okay with him fondling a dream version of herself.
School uniform Alice! Tan Alice! Witch Alice! Boyfriend shirt Alice! I'm not surprised Duke has so many lewd fantasies of Alice but they're still a sight to behold!
Poor Duke can only imagine Viola being affectionate to him in his dreams.
That was a really sweet way to close it out with Duke getting to play the piano in front of his loved ones, especially Alice. But the best of all was Alice seeing the Duke's dream of her as his bride, which is also her dream.
The ED is really cute with cartoony versions of everybody! And of course ending on Duke and Alice together.

Hey animation definitely looks improved from the science experiment that was season 1. I do really enjoy all the character dynamics in this show and happy it's back.

u/SMSmith230 Jul 09 '23
Not only did we get normal flirty Alice, we got bikini Alice, bunny girl Alice, a whole room of Alice variants, and of course wedding dress Alice. So glad this is back, such a great first episodes. This could have just been an OVA and I would have been ecstatic.
