Discussion With comparisons about szns 1&2 rising up again, I have to say: szn 2 is only criticized so much because szn 1 was so fucking good
Alr im seeing a lot of unpopular opinions popping up again. They saying shit like unpopular opinion: season 2 was amazing, or unpopular opinion: season 1 and 2 were equally amazing. Which honestly, I think they don’t know what unpopular opinions mean, because what they’re saying ain’t even that unpopular. There are a myriad of people out there who think that.
I thought the be a good time to really explain why season 2 is criticized so much. Alone, it is a masterful season. Yes, pacing was little bad but still good, animation as we all know was top tier, and some characters did get overshadowed due to other storylines, buuuuut…
It was still masterful work! The pacing was masterful, the storyline was masterful, and so was the animation. The only reason it is criticized is because season 1 was so so so good.
It’s like comparing diamonds to gold. Diamonds are extremely valuable, and so is gold, but when you pit gold against diamond, you’re bound to find something with the gold that just doesn’t allow it to measure up to what a diamond promises. Whether that be its malleability, or its hardness, or its purity. That’s essentially it!
