Tiltott varázslatok jegyzéke - Season 2

I'm of the opinion that nothing much has changed from the first season, at least that I vaguely recall. Everything carried over from the opening probe and the same song played on repeat. Touma only and constantly dishes it out with his right hand (if his opponent had a helmet, hopefully he wouldn’t choke) with the ultimate intention of saving absolutely everyone, "Touma, Touma!!!". The Index must've eaten all his supplies and hair, flat-out sadistic wretches randomly appear on stage because, well, it's all Academy City's fault for existing, priests are always the biggest bastards, and speeches about higher values during (decent-looking) fights are not to be missed under any circumstances, even if coins and lightning are flying. The multiple-arc story is plot-unbalanced and haphazard, everything is precipitated by coincidences or decisions too inappropriately convenient for any progress, and it doesn't forget to add a constant dose of fan service. It doesn't do anything new, exceptional, different, creative within the established shōnen genre and Toaru Majutsu tracks. The music and visuals are more of the better barrel, and Mikoto Misaka is still the likable enough tomboy to carry a lot of weight on his shoulders and generally keep the bar average. If you liked number one, you'll like number two. And the same vice versa. A weak 3 stars (2021.01.03)
