As someone who is an astronomical critic and unforgiving in my critique, I honestly thought R2 was a stroke of utter brilliance.
"It's like Death Note... with mechas."

I've watched the first ep of R2, it was awesome.

Regarding my current anime circumstances, I was stricken with an uncontrollable curiosity to watch Kill la Kill. Sue me.You totally should if you can handle fanservice. The concept and the story are pretty original if you can ignore all the crotch shots and similar. I hate fanservice in general, but I don't regret watching that show at all, I admit it took me a few time to see past it though.

Once I was able to see the substance of KLK I was basically able to ignore the fanservice as 'fanservice' and saw it merely as 'plot'. Not joking, this 'plot' really is plot in a non-joking way.

I'm on episode 20. I absolutely adore the deconstruction of their world, of how an authoritarian position in the educational institution's hierarchy is essentially a political position, and simply how an educational institution controls the population, alike how governments, and previously theocratic-related constructs such as the church, completely has dominion over everything including economics and social positions to entirely banishing them from the establishment.
Also, the soundtrack is godly.

Finished reading Gunnm & Gunnm Last Order. Probably gonna finish Kokou no Hito & 20th Century Boys next or maybe catch up with Kimi ni Todoke.
Finally got around to watching the first season of Darker than Black, better than expected. Also been watching the first Macross & Fushigi Mahou Fun Fun Pharmacy.

R2 blows are R1 straight out of the water. A single episode, in my opinion, is better than all of R1. I understand that this is your own opinion, but I personally would not advise expressing it in that manner to somebody who has yet to watch R2. Overhyping anything (no matter how justified you perceive the hype as being) tends to create extreme expectations that almost inevitably leads to disappointment. Anyway, as for my opinion, while I do agree that R2 is better than R1 overall, there are still a lot of stuff in R1 that were great. In particular, the events around (R1 spoilers) Euphie's genocide had the most powerful effect on me from everything in the entire series. Still, though, the (R2 spoilers) Zero's Requiem takes a close second, which also established my opinion that Code Geass has the best ending out of all the animes that I've ever watched. Finally got around to watching the first season of Darker than Black, better than expected. In order to preserve your opinion of Darker Than Black, I would advise you to not watch the second season (Ryuusei no Gemini)

I'll henceforth let the content demonstrate and give justification to my perception of it unsurpassable quality. Unreasonable expectations instigated by over-stimulation or not (which my statement was, admittedly, exaggerated and over-emotional, but was primarily encouragement, which opinions are obviously subjective, and not factual, so admonishment should taken even in mere recommendations, suggestions and reviews), its unquestionable the emotional impact it distributes to the audience.

It's an interesting story, and I find it symbolic GGO is for pro gamers and most pro gamers are MLG pro 8] But seriously, it's a nice watch, if you're into MMO animes

Pretty much. SAO II is copy paste of the first season, except for the last arc which is pretty great (in comparison to everything else which isn't saying much but...).

I say you should watch SAO II because it isn't terrible.

Holy fuck, I just watch ep R2 5 and I was amazed at the end! Also, am I the only one who gets slightly annoyed at Suzaku sometimes?
