Awesome! I loved the first season of this anime so the fact that there is a second season really had me pumped up.

[Mushi]

First season was a lot of fun. I thought it was well made and I enjoyed pretty much every episode. This is good news.

[monir]

Yay! More Haruka and her fascination with dojikko Aki-chan. Oh, how I loathe that doll.

[uis]

More Haruka, Siina and Mika...
So any news about new character ???

[bmkharuhiism]

Can't wait for the second season. I loved moe Haruka during season 1, and I expect even more moe-ness from Haruka in season 2. Should be another fun season.

[IchiKyo]

I wonder what sorts of story we will have for hiding Haruka's secret. Can't wait to see Haruka again^^

[Edgewalker]

First season started out interesting, turned into "So bad it's good" and ended as "Just plain shit."

Indifferent to a second season.

My thoughts exactly.

[physics223]

It wasn't all that bad. But it was pretty bad. It's a good thing the fall season came, because I was ready to declare it the best anime of 2008 despite everything. That was how bad I perceived the previous year was.

Totally Agree.

I'm debating if I shall waste my time on the second season. I like to give any series some "hope" that they become better, but this cliché show makes me think otherwise.

[Nosauz]

honestly with the winter so week in its offerings, I feel kind of obligated to pick this up. Its a typical lovecom, and it was an interesting show that was fun to watch. Was it deep, and profound? Eh not so much but it definitely was something I didn't mind watching for half an hour once a week. but yea I'm not dying to see this, if its good i'll probably watch it, pretty much my typical stance on everything, but then again I'm watching akikan this season so I don't know if my opinion is valid... Pst i do it for the lulz

[Moonie]

*noto gasm again!* D:

I hate the ending itself but the other episodes especially the 1st half is great, so I like this series fairly. I hope the second season will satisfy me and most of the viewers who thinks the 1st season ending is bleh.

You've already wasted your time by posting in the thread for Haruka. We will be totally ok if you waste a little more by watching Haruka related goodness in the coming days. Narf!

[typhonsentra]

I don't think it ever left "So bad it's good" territory for me. I'll give it a go, just hope my brain doesn't melt.

I have to say though, this is probably the dumbest show I've ever watched. It's like the writer(s) just took every anime convention ever and threw them into a pot.

[Shadow Kira01]

I have yet to watch the first season but if there is going to be a second season, then I will definitely watch the first. I find the story to be somewhat interesting.

The ending wasn't all that great, but I was satisfied with it. I went into the series expecting it to be cliche, shallow entertainment and I ended up enjoying it quite a bit.

I just want to see more of Mika.

[Vexx]

Wait... a second season of this was green lit? (soft laughter)

I guess this is what they call an insanely safe bet..... more hijinks with Gilligan and his harem. Good safe comedic fun. Sure sign of the economic downturn.

Yes, I'll watch it... the first season was fun once I realized it was never intended to do more than rinse, recycle, repeat. The parodies of every anime archetype female possible are silly fun.

I thought Episode 1-7 were pretty good, while 8-10 were ok and 11-12 were absolutely terrible.

I'm just curious to see how it plays out now that Haruka and Yuuto are actually offical. Maybe a little less awkward attitude this time around.

Spoiler for Spoiler-Related Thought...Kinda:

I really hope they don't talk about that whole Innocent Smile #1 volume again. I mean the two are in love, do you really need to say that fate is going to force them together?

At school? Maybe still a secret, the usual horribly clichéd denials, etc which leads to Shiina Making Her (very public) Move, which leads to facepalm moments, saved as usual by Yuuto Saying The Right Thing.

Rinse. Repeat with the Imperial Guard.

Rinse. Repeat with the Asshole Otaku Haters.

Spoiler for I wonder if:

Asakura Nobunaga is the secret Big Bad controlling Yuuto like a puppet? i mean he really is there at the right moment last season.
