Every (anime) girl looks better without glasses, no exception.
Anyway, this episode was a lot of fun. Sena is a definite sucker for Yozora and Rika's combined prank, and her father is still as naive as ever (though I applaud him for spanking her). Also, she's infinitely more creepy than last episode, with her whole ceiling dedicated to Yozora and (seemingly) masturbating with that wig. Also, Stella really likes shipping Kodako and Sena together, doesn't she?

Welp, this season just about managed to confirm my worst fears about the direction the story wants to go with Sena within a single episode. Watching an entire episode of my favourite character being bullied, then blamed for it, then suddenly revealing some over the top and needlessly negative attributes was definitely not a lot of fun, and my annoyance at seeing a perfectly great character slowly deteriorate before my eyes might just make me want to drop the show at this rate. Due to the presence of a certain voice actor, I'm honestly inclined to see this all the way through but this wouldn't be the first time I've given up on a show even with her in it. I'll give it a few more episodes. Hopefully it'll improve by then...

Oh god, I can totally imagine the awkward feeling Kodaka felt when having those moments with Sena. I have to agree with him, Sena just went into the uncanny valley tier.
Mooooooooooooo. Oh, and does anyone else have Bakemonogatari vibes with those signs all around Sena on the ED?

Didn't like either the OP and ending songs, whilst the animation is quite nice. Did better (as n more true to the source) characterisation this time around. One of the fault of the first season is at the beginning it was reluctant to accept itself as a comedy (hence no background 'effect' sound in earlier episodes), until ep 5 or so. This time around a bit 'overstated' but comedy flows more naturally.

I mean, when brushing her hair they were actually being nice to each other. Sena's comment about wanting to laugh it off together was revealing. As for the negative traits, Sena has always been shown as that type of extreme person, did you forget the way she treats boys other then Kodoka?

On side note: Now that I think about it, S2 being better shouldn't be a surprised when the source material gets better and better...

I thought as much while I was watching, it's like they established some depth in S1 and now they're just going to run with it. |

What I can tell you though is that the general consensus of the LN readers is that the story get's better with every Volume. If you want, you could read the translations of the Post Volume 5 Light Novels (where Episode 1 is currently at) and judge for yourself. |
