Sometimes it feels like only me and 3 more people watched this anime. I liked it a lot as I said in the last review. The Xmas concert felt a bit long at the beginning but I have to admit it got me emotional by the end. I did feel the staff got better at immersing us in the events while still keeping it entertaining (unlike the first season where I was just like: I appreciate the effort and risk taking but I really did not want to watch an entire variety show). I especially liked the detective show episode, how they kept cutting in and out of it.
Edit: I never did understand the title, though, Why 50? |
