With luck we'll get more on the backstory next season. I've found this show had a pretty remarkable tendency to address weaknesses a few episodes after I identified them. For instance I thought the main cast was strong but the De Metrio boys didn't have much in the way of character -and then Episode 9 came along and gave them some character development. I also thought the show was much stronger as a character show then as a mecha show, and to a large degree I still think that, but after Episode 11 I feel it's brushed up its mecha credentials quite a bit.
Granted I've seen really promising series fall apart late in their runs, so I'm not going to count my chickens before they hatch. But I have high hopes for season 2. |

The ED of season two won't be sung by Megumi Nakajima. It'll be a song called "Jersey Club Spirit!" by our three heroines.
Nakajima does sing the OP, though. |

The Ending was among the most dramatic farewells I've ever seen. Madoka saying "goodbye" a couple of times until Ran disappears from sight then bursting, crying is so touching... Friends giving farewells. I wanna hug her saying its ok... GenjiChan is here. Hah!!! Anyway, can't wait for the OVA.

KISS was a rebel group who's main force was obliterated over Earth. But then we have Le Garite hoping to gain control of the Voxes. Since Mugi ran off with the KISS, it's quite possible Le Garite made up a task force to recover Mugi's Ignis using Lan's Lympha. Mugi clearly got away from Lan (or else the letter wouldn't have existed), but not before getting into a scuffle and escaping Lan and her task force. However, in the PV we see Mugi attacking a Le Garite battleship. Is this an ambush after being cornered or a strategic plan by the exiled prince of De Metrio to capture the Lympha? It's quite a bold move in any case, since most of KISS was obliterated. I think Vilaguilio is putting too much trust in Mugi and her Ignis, and it's going to go back and haunt him.

The announcement at the end of Season One implied Season Two would begin with a friendly reunion between the three leads in Kamogawa, but the Season Two trailer seems to be pointing in a different direction. While I like seeing the three leads interact as friends, I'm hoping we don't get some sort of lame cop out after what that trailer showed. Although it would be kind of funny if what we saw in that trailer turned out to be the "arguing" Muginami said she and Lan did in the letter she sent to Madoka.

I thought Kamogawa Days would be some light hearted side stories set in between episodes or something. This looks like it's set after the end of season one however. Kind of seems at odds with the seriousness of the season two trailer as well.
One thing that has me worried about the OVA -I want it to fit together well with the rest of the series, but I also think that it shouldn't be absolutely essential to have seen it in order to understand what's going on in season two. It seems to me that setting it after the end of season one could make achieving that a challenge. |
