The last season was a damned disaster. I hope this one will be better, because I could not make a single emotional connection last season to the characters.

*edit, 3 days later* Yeah, that's much more like it. I can't deny that the first season set this up nicely, but basically wasting an entire sub-par season so that we can actually care about those characters in a second season seems to be very wasteful to me.

While everything seemed to be low-stakes and somehow removed from any meaningful story in the first, this second season ups the stake instantly and returns to form from the original Utawarerumono.
