Quanzhi Fashi II

I have to say that this anime is underrated, I mean of course it has some bad moments but there was not a single episode that I felt boring, while watching it I always wanted to know what happens next… so yeah it’s good for me and I recommend it. And also I guess that not a lot of people like anime from China but I definite have to say that there are some great ones and at least this one is fair and decent. So to anyone having doubts of watching it I would recommend it. Since as I have said the history is pretty good.

Okay well i've never written any reviews before, but the few on MAL seem to be exceptionally negative so i thought i might just try and put an opinion out there of some-one who although understands the number of flaws in the 2nd season and can see it is not a particularly well written anime, still very much enjoyed the series I will try to keep this spoiler free as possible Now maybe I do have a bit of a soft spot for anime set in a school environment with OP MCs, but i don't think this show was without its merits I think if you want tobe able to enjoy this anime you have to go in with the thought that this is just going to be a fun filled fighting montage that lacks a particularly intelligent or ground braking new story. It certainly not as bad as the story for the other anime below a 7 rating in MAL that i have seen and don't think it deserves such a low rating Story - 6/10 Now the story was a little bit all over the place, a few plot holes, but these are often just simple issues of characters not acting reasonably to a situation, Mo Fan being a prime culprit for this. If your not able to overlook this kinda of thing, then i can imagine this show being a difficult watch for you It is also a little easy to predict in in places, i did find myself on occasion successfully predicting what was happening next/next death They make the classic anime mistake of randomly going into a little more detail for a random character, right before killing them off a couple times This not only lets me know who they planning to kill next, but doesn't really add any emotion to the situation, because i still don't really care any more about them because of the couple of minutes of extra screen time you have given them (as i mention later no real backstory is given so its hard to connect with many of the characters) Despite this i still very much found myself feeling sad/shocked just due to the shear brutality of the situation, and the overwhelming loss of life especially to young kids There are 2 major differences between this season and the 1st 1) -They've tried to go much darker, with this season, characters are getting killed of left right and centre (although they get a bit carried away and just start killing off and putting time into characters I care almost nothing for) -I quite enjoyed this dark twist on events, it gave a very apocalyptic feel which was a nice change from the first season started to wonder if mainish characters might actually die from quite an early point of the season -I also enjoyed the one hit kill kinda style from the monsters this season, a problem I often find with anime is the insane amount of damage people can take before they die, so it was refreshing to see when people got slashed, they tended to just die after 2) -The 2nd season is spread over a time period of just a week or two, whilst the 1st is over a couple years -This caused an issue because many of the side characters barely changed from the start to the end of the season (mentioned further in character section) Oh also just one more thing, ridiculous ending, just doesn't bother answering anything in a cliffhanger for the next season Other than that I did just about overall enjoy the story for the 2nd season Art - 7/10 I think this is possibly the one area where there is actually a small improvement from the first season But i guess thats what you would expect considering the 2nd season came out nearly 2 years later I really like the artwork for the combo attacks when he uses both fire and lightning at the same time Sound - 5/10 Nothing very special about the OST Didn't like the opening or outro songs as much as the first season, they both sound a bit bland Character - 5/10 I think this was one of the main issues with the anime (i touched on it in the story section) But there is just a lack of character development i'm struggling to remember a single bit of backstory for any side characters/main characters So a lot of the characters just feel hollow and only the around to die so the show can pretend that it could kill of anyone at any point -The only character that really changed at all was our MC, Mo fan, and all that he did was get a bit stronger, I still know nothing of his life, why on earth he got teleported to this world, why does he have necklace that eats the souls of everything he kills?!?! -And on that note their didn't really seem to be much difference between training for his tier 2 and tier 3 magic and, it would have been nice if they had done something different and more exciting instead of just recycling the first season Enjoyment - 8/10 Regardless of all the flaws, I very much enjoyed this anime I went in with the mindset of, hopefully this will continue off from the 1st season, sadly I was disappointed from that perspective However I was given an entirely different anime to enjoy, that was a more ridiculous way darker and just lacked some of the story quality of the 1st season Overall - 7/10 Overall i would still recommend the 2nd season to most people I still watched it all in one sitting, and despite the lack of character progression still found myself wanting more, and often at points at the edge of my seat because i was always intrigued as to what was going to happen next to the students/town etc..... I can see why a lot of people don't like it though, but i just think in order to enjoy it you just need to watch it for what it is, which is Mo Fan, (and the general, who is dench but they of course wait for the last episode to show you........) just going crazy and murking demons for 12 episodes Anyway I hope this review helps anyone who's on the edge for whether or not to bother with the second season

Quanzhi Fashi 2nd Season This is something I put off watching until right before I'm writing this review. I watched all 12 episodes right before now and honestly, I am severely disappointed at this pathetic fall from the first season. Given it's season two I'm going to assume you have watched the first and am going to spare the intro for this review, as I only wright reviews for things I think are either really bad, or really god damn good. This is the former. Quanzi Fashi 2nd Season, or in English, Full-Time Magister 2nd Season is very clearly a minimal effort cert. It does everythingwrong. The story covers nothing, its 12 episodes of a single event that is not satisfying and very very boring. The season aims to kill off people with any level of development, or none at all. Nothing seems to have any impact in this season. The story is especially poor when placed next to the first season. Of which I enjoyed immensely and loved just about every moment. When we look at the art I'm going to say for the most part it is just as good as the first season. Though things are not as defined and with the first episode changing the ending of last season, I'm inclined to say its dropped dramatically for me in comparison, but it is the only nice factor of this as it's different from what most people watch. on the lower end of things but still. far from the worst animation to ever exist. The effects at the very least are fantastic. Moving on to sound, there isn't anything there. Its boring and I barely noticed it beyond the speech (which was almost as bad or worse in a few spots) could have been so much better. Character I basically covered but ill go on to say that, there really isn't any development. Nothing is substantial and nothing matters when it comes to the characters. Oh boo hoo some characters died but that wasn't necessary, none of the events here were. Enjoyment, Ill put it this way, I barely paid any attention after ep 7 and stopped caring all together by ep 10. it was absolutely HORRIBLE...... If this gets another season, which I seriously doubt it will. I expect some god damn redemption for this ... atrocity..... Overall.. 4.... just because of the Art..... Do not watch.. seriously.... its a waste of time.

The first season was fine, not that many issues. And then season 2 came, most of the story, animation, battles were butchered. Nothing made sense, the basic "logic" from the first season no longer applied, the final battle in first season was recapped as a totally different battle so right from the start you know the animation team does not give a single f* about making it look good. Suddenly all abilities that were of the same level get different names, sometimes they do not even get a name, the strength of every single ability no longer was represented by specific animations, instead an ability that lookedlike rainbow fart suddenly became more powerful than an ability that looks like nuke explosion. The story also no longer made much sense, every single character acted brain dead, including villains. The enemies all look the same, copy paste. Absolutely horrible.
