I’ve previously blogged about the first season, and certainly I truly didn’t mind watching this 2nd season. Though it’s once again profiled at 39 episodes, it sure isn’t going to be dull or boring if you liked the first season.
Almost all the elements are preserved from its season 1 prequel. Episode titles are generally proverbs/sayings/idiom/wise words which are the same as the earlier season. It’s quite meaningful really. =) Basically, it’s the continuation of the storyline left off at season 1.
Expectedly, our main lead (the gal in picture) faces more trials and obstacles. However this time it seems a little more serious (on a bigger scale) and it isn’t as easy to get around things as before (from what I can remember lah). Once again, the downside of this show is that you really need to follow the episodes, or at least know the flow of events clearly to enjoy the show to its fullest. Though this show isn’t exactly action-packed, somehow it is able to make me want to continue watching. It’s somewhat like those dramas which make you want to find out more when 1 episode ends. Yeah, something to that extent liao. Lol.
On a side note, even the opening song is the same as season 1’s. I was quite surprised to hear it when I first started on this series. I guess this song suits this story/anime really well, hence the continuation of its usage. =)
I have no idea whether there will be season 3. I won’t be hoping too much for it, though of course further developing the story isn’t all that impossible since many things can happen in/out of the palace and stuff. For those who have watched season 1 and liked it, you mustn’t miss this. =D
