Contains spoilers
I have already looked at Season 1 of this iseka anime and I noted that the opening episodes carried a darkness that was perhaps toned down from the mid-season point but adding harem, chibi and comedy elements. This season continues with the mixed tone.
The harem aspects are interesting as the subject of the attention, main character Hajime (Toshinari Fukamachi/Matt Shipman) is openly interested only in vampire character Yue (Yûki Kuwahara/Tia Lynn Ballard). That does not stop jealous aspects from her (as well as the other female characters crowding him for his attention). However, Hajime is also only a teen and, through his trials, somewhat unhinged.

The story continues with Hajime looking for dungeons built by the Liberators to gain their powers. His aim is not to take on the god of the world – who manipulates humans, monsters and demons in an endless war between each other for his amusement – but to get back to Japan where he and other classmates were taken from to this fantasy world. That said he will fight any who get in his way and is lured into the conflict.

| The apostle of God |
This includes demons actively hunting him, the apostle of God (an angel essentially) and becoming involved in an insider threat within the human capital despite them declaring him a heretic. And whilst there was more going on in a wider vista, and the action was as good as in the previous season, I felt that this carried me a little less. Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoyed it but not quite as much. 6.5 out of 10.
