(I am in love with everyone's eyes!) Also it's interesting to note that the art is so stunning that when you see even a slight drop in quality, it's rather noticeable. I do prefer season 1's art (Darkness Season 1), but Rito's, Yami's, Momo's, Lala's, and Mea's faces are drawn really well this season. Nevertheless, I don't know much about art however, to me, the art looks colorful, vivid, and vibrant. My final note: If you don't like the theme of friendship, you may not like this season.Ĭompared to the very first season of To Love-Ru, the art has significantly improved (I'm sure many of you reading this know that already). This is simply my opinion, and I just thought some of these things were worth thinking about. And yes, several times, Mikan does mention that Rito has changed ever since the arrival of Lala and friends, but it's likely nothing serious as he is still shown to have those same mixed feelings (from the very first season) about marriage, love, politics, and the Harem Plan. I never expected him to suddenly become a whole new person in merely two years. As for character development, I think it's rather realistic that Rito's personality hasn't radically changed. Maybe he hasn't thought about it until he was 7 or 8, but to ask someone to suddenly change their life values and beliefs in just two years seems improbable. The plot makes this clear several times that polygamy is not allowed on Earth this implies that, for about 14 years, he has been raised with the idea that marriage is between a man and a woman. So in many ways, I understand why he feels unsure about these things, especially the Harem Plan. Moreover, Rito is portrayed as an average male student his only unqiue trait (that is emphasized) is his kindness and reliability when you really need him. He's sixteen marriage, falling in love, and managing the entire universe are things that most teenagers would never think too deeply about at that age. I don't know if two years is enough for someone like Rito to suddenly devote himself to over fifteen girls. For example, in To Love-Ru's universe, only two years or so (maybe less) have passed since the first episode. I was also pleased that the show didn't feel episodic there was continuity unlike To Love-Ru and Motto To Love-Ru.Īnd although it may appear that I dislike the story, I think the lack of progression is justified in some ways. Interestingly, in this season, there is an antagonist (and I don't mean random fodder alien assassins) with a goal (not minor transgressions like kidnapping). Still, it's exciting to see that the Harem Plan may not be as perfect as Momo makes it out to be.
It's interesting to see different perspectives because some conflict with Momo's beliefs, although I had hoped that they would further elaborate on their reasoning. Additionally, more girls are added to the Harem Plan furthermore, the characters who, originally, never knew about the plan provide their views on the subject. I, however, personally enjoy them and laugh occasionally because the show is self-aware that these scenes would only occur so frequently in a fictitious world.Īs for character development, if you're here to watch Rito and Lala grow romantically closer, you'll likely be disappointed there is one scene, but they simply end up reaffirming those same feelings that they had at the conclusion of Motto To Love-Ru. This exact scene repeats many times throughout this season. He is then chased or lectured, but ultimately forgiven. After 70+ episodes, there is little character and plot development for example, much of the content in each episode (addressing the entire series) is Rito stumbling or slipping while female characters are conveniently nearby which results in a perverted scene. To Love-Ru, as a series, has a weak story. In this review, I will explore this season's strengths and weaknesses. Unfortunately, this implies that many of its infamous flaws are also present in this second season. season of To Love-Ru Darkness) in fact, the disparity between this and its prequels are, in my opinion, little to none. "To Love-Ru Darkness 2nd" is just as entertaining as its prequels (To Love-Ru, Motto To Love-Ru, and the first Lastly, I am a huge fan of the series, but I've never read the manga. I hope this review will help those who are struggling to make a decision. Or despite disliking the first season (Darkness), you, for some reason, are still interested. Perhaps you had seen the first season of Darkness and enjoyed it, but you're still skeptical of its sequel. Note: I am writing this review for those who are already familiar with the To Love-Ru series.
