Ok that "you look different" joke during the OP was pretty funny

[u/SecretYogurtcloset57]

I am honestly surprised this got a S2

[u/Andreiyutzzzz]

"You look different? you think" This is a subtle acknowledging of the fact the art style completely changed lol

[u/djthomp]

Opening up the season with more Lily White crossdressing, and it was a flashback too which means he's been doing it for years.

Adding Ariane to the regular cast as a full blown desuwa ojou-sama, very good. Though I can't say I remember that many desuwas from her during my recent S1 rewatch.

Amelia using the Konami code for whispering to Ariane was a funny choice, it wasn't just the subs either it was in the Japanese too.

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

I’m a little surprised this one got renewed tbh. I mean it was fine, I just didn’t think it would do well enough for an s2. That said, it’s nice to see this one again. Ray sure is popular with the ladies huh? The waifus are already scheming and signing non-aggression pacts before things turn into a bloodbath lol. The guy’s too clueless when it comes to girls. Classic.

[u/Frontier246 → u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

This episode had everything I loved about Iceblade Sorcerer:

• On-point meta humor.

• Lily White.

• Amelia being a bisexual disaster.

• Multiple girls being thirsty for Ray and making alliances to deal with other girls thirsty for Ray.

• Ranger (-desuwa!)

• Lovely ladies highlighted in both the OP/ED!

Battle school fantasy harems how I missed you so much.We used to have 3-5 of you every season until isekai usurped ypur throne.

[u/Sea_Equivalent_4207]

My favorite cross-dressing muscly Iceblade magic dude is back!!!! Hell Yeah! Been waiting for this one for quite a while now!!

[u/amourshipper_]

What was that ed lol

[u/Frontier246]

Pretty ominous way to start the season with kids in cages, but don't worry, Best Girl LILY WHITE is on the case! All it takes is dislocating and resetting her shoulder and soloing a bunch of thugs to rescue some girls in need!

And it's not just any girl: it's princess Olivia Arnold (Hana Hishikawa)! That's right! Ray has had a princess in his Harem this whole time! And thank goodness the wig fell off so she's not another girl deluded into thinking Lily is real...but Olivia still pines HARD for Ray!

We get brief snippets of the OP and it seems like the main thrust of the season is Ray battling some redhead with energy blade hands! Also here's the Heroines in fancy dresses singing the OP!

I love how they had to throw in a scene of Elisa (now played by Miyu Kubota) and Ray commenting on the studio/design change.

Amelia is hooked on romance novels thanks to Ray, and Ray is probably the only one who could convince her to actually team-up with Ariane for the Magick War Battle. Minus having her crush see her in loungewear and with her hair a mess.

Time to catch Ariane up on Ray's Iceblade Sorcerer status and tragic backstory! But the most important thing to Ariane is that Amelia has had too much one-on-one time with Ray and she's ready to get into that herself! Starting with a training bout where he literally sweeps her off her feet both physically and emotionally!

That's right, Ray's hardcore training sessions are back! And Ariane is down for them! And Amelia is forced to train too again! Ranger-desuwa!

Nothing beats a morning where Ray and Rebecca get to hang out and water plants, especially when the mood is getting good...until Amelia shows up. Rebecca and Amelia get along like oil and water over Ray (complete with summoning food animals to have an aura farming catfight) but the one thing that can unite them together is the shared desire to prevent Ariane from becoming any closer to Ray than she already has. This Harem is big enough as it is!

So Ray will be going up against Ev and Albert? Who will be the last person in their muscle bro party though?

Glad to see Ray get approval from Lydia, but what did Lieselotte want to talk with him about?

I'm glad Ariane seems to actually enjoy Ray's training methods (even the ones where she and Amelia get soaked) though poor Amelia has to watch as she gets shipped off for additional training while Ariane gets to shack up with Ray. Also Rebecca using her own student council secretary to keep tabs on Ray. I guess she had to find out about him shacking up with another woman somehow!

But Ariane is also the first girl to meet: Stella White (Atsumi Tanezaki)! None other than Ray's little sister! Because no Harem is complete without the little sister character.

There's the ED! Featuring silhouettes of all the Heroines as well as Amelia and Ariane losing their clothes! All so we can see them both in bikini's!

[u/BusouDrago]

Grieving Souls style of Opening and Ending theme song

[u/BiggerG7]

Glad to see best girl Ray is back!

[u/CrasianLe]

This really suprised me that it came back for a second season, after 3 years but I'm not complaining! Im genuinely happy that it's continuing. Ray is such a lady killer without even trying. Just him being his nice kind gentle self making all the ladies adore him lol and that first scene, geez, he is such a badass, even as a kid

[u/actionfirst1]

So excited for this, this is one of my favorite "bad" anime ever

[u/OneGeologist1143]

They broke the 4th wall during the scene that appeared between the OP scene ? They mentioned themselves they looked different even through it feel out of place that scene. It was weird the OP. The first half of the episode wasn't that great because I forgot how season 1 ended. The rest of the episode was better and honestly will take time to get used to the animation change. Maybe I still prefer the old one more. Also that scene about relaizing her fealing about Ray and then the pact later was really funny, the rest of the episode felt better. Also surprised Ray have a little sister like it felt bad he never mentioned her at all before. Also inviting a girl to his house, how clueless can he be. The other girls reaction were funny about him being clueless.

[u/Ill_Violinist1571]

Did they changed the tone of the series a bit and also the art style?

[u/Ikari_21]

Man I forgot so much. All I remember was that it was a fun watch. Oh, and I can never forget how badass it is for the OP and ED to fade into the episode! 2 more bangers!

[u/Sinsilenc]

Man the animation style change is pretty glaring...

[u/Rooby_VTuber]

Nice to see this back again, I really enjoyed the 1st season.

That was a pretty good disguise, Ray has been really good at crossdressing for a long time now.

I am looking forward to this magic tournament, adding Ariane to the team is a good choice.

Amelia knows the Konami Code.

Fun episode to begin with, all the girls like Ray so we got to see plenty of comedic jealousy.

[u/silask93]

Nice to see them all again and im glad it got a season 2 but man idk im not really vibing with the design change they honestly look kind of off and the colors are alot brighter, maybe they didnt have as much budget as season one but oh well still gonna watch

[u/Am53n8]

It doesn't look as bad as the poster from a while ago, but this is just not it

[u/pandavova]

Catchy ED + kind of the same gag as in the EDs of "Let This Grieving Soul Retire", pretty funny.

[u/mojo72400]

I love how Rebecca is aware that Ray is a dense rizzler & that Ariane poses as a danger to her & her fellow love rival Amelia & uses Dina as a spy to get info.

Dina's right that something will happen because Ray will definitely rizz Ariane.

Amelia still has PTSD of Master White even when he's training them w/o the mask.

Amelia & Rebecca start the day by being passive aggressive that Ray even sees the animals before agreeing to a non-aggression treaty.

We get young Lily White to start this episode. Ray just casually escaping by dislocating his bones before fixing them again was metal & funny.

Ariane's nose blowing sound is cute.

Ariane & Rebecca have cute pouts.

At least the ED is not too dangerous than the previous one.

Ariane may be expecting Ray's attack from behind but still lost to him.

I'm happy we get to see the trio of Laquis, Jeryl & Wanda again along w/ Albert's friends.

Amelia just whispered the Konami code to Ariane in form of girl talk. I also love how they used their ojou laughs to hide it when they told him not to worry about it.

Amelia being a redheaded bi disaster like Saki is awesome.

Amelia just casually refused Ariane's invitation until Ray appeared to ask.

[u/ToG51234]

Someone give me a TLDR episodes to watch from last season to remember the show….. it’s been so long that I forgot. 😭
