Cooling down some

Sengoku Basara S2 1! Is it bad that I didn't finish the first season? The red dude and the blue dude are still fighting, so it looks like I didn't miss anything. The animation is pretty sleek and production value is very high. I can see why it is popular. In the first episode red and blue are faced with a bigger foe, so I guess they have to team up; plenty of testosterone to throw around here. I like abingdon school boys' opening theme, and angelo is doing the ending which wasn't shown this episode though the PV is already out.

Nurarihyon no Mago 2! I think I'm a sucker for Harry Potter-esque, young, megane-wearing characters like Negima, Watanuki and now Rikou. Rikou continues to refuse to lead the clan, but when his yokai friends are in trouble, his yokai personality comes out to help, and gains the loyalty of those he helps. The first two episodes have been fluffy. Hopefully, it develops into more.

Occult Academy 2! I wish the characters were a little more attractive, but storywise, it is amusing. *spoilers* Aliens takeover in 2012, and scientists send clones named 'Abe Minoru' back in time to see what in the school causes the rift to allow aliens through (something like that..dr who?). They are on their last clone, #6, who is a wimp, but befriends Maya who decides to help him for her own personal revenge. The mix of comedy, sci-fi and horror is good. I don't get the ending live-action visuals though.
