Good!
Once again, Absolute BL was a refreshment to catch, and continuing on into the story of Mob is a fun one. I would say this season deals with some more sentimental topics, but it can never stay serious since 2 seconds later we're panning to show Mob just peaking from behind. I loved watching this series, I'm upset that it only had three episodes, but I'm hopeful that a third season will happen.
For anybody just curious about Absolute Bl in general, I would say to watch seasons 1 and 2 together, as if they were one. Not that season 2 was confusing or anything, but it would probably feel like a full-length series if you do so. In season 2, we're back on focusing on Mob, how he finds himself dealing with all these other BL tropes, and his everlasting love quarrel with Kikuchi.
What I liked: Pretty much what I loved about season one. The bright light anytime the pretty BL love interest came on screen, the caring relationship between Mob and his bother, the tropes that are over-exaggerated to a point that it's too funny, even this season, I thought the romance been Mob and Kikuchi wasn't all that bad, they just needed an ounce more of development for me to feel bad that he's studying abroad, but again, this is a series that is trying to show us how fast these lovers go and overexaggerate it to a point of no return. This was a very neat series, everything followed n the right path, and nothing felt filtered or unnecessary, something this series never sways upon, and that I can appreciate.
What I didn't lIke: Again, just these chaste ass kisses from Ayato and Toujou. I don't ask for much, but I do ask that they don't kiss like they're making contact with a dead fish. I also would've appreciated it if this season was longer, as it was even shorter than season 1. Now I'm scared season 3 will only be a two-parter and then were inevitably have to sit and wait for a season 4.
Ratings:
Story: 8.5 - Enjoyable. I think the last season was a teensy bit more enjoyable, but there was nothing wrong with this series. The character development that Mob is going through is definitely the best of them all.
Acting: 9 - Reall good just like last season. Mob does a fantastic job. Ayato is a fucking cutie, and the rest are manageable, nothing amazing, but good enough for me not to cringe.
Music: 8.5 - This has to be one of the most addicting intro songs ever. It's stuck in my head permanently. It's not even something I would listen to, but this series will make sure it never leaves your head.
Rewatch Value: 2 - I would probably rewatch the first season more than I would this season. However, I'm always going to come back to watch the incredible 90's biker title sequence.
Can't wait for season 3, I'm hopeful that we'll see some other tropes and a funny Mob. This is just such a refreshment and much more enjoyable than I could've ever imagined it would be.
