The last time I complained about this series I said that if this was a parody it was a terrible one but after analyzing it and talking to other people I have to come to a simple conclusion Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute is not a parody the novel is an actual work that uses isekai tropes in a completely unhinged way the only reason why you hear the series is a parody is because people read the manga version which is almost like a parody of the series and get to the conclusion that this series is a parody when it isnt. Now does the series not being a parody suddenly makes it better? The answer is still a no a bad isekai where the world bends over in favor of the MC for him to be the best ever to have ever existed is not a good series by any means. Theres not much to say for this season that I didnt say for previous one I mean did the series actually change at all? No the jokes are still repetitive to the point that even if you were to find one joke funny it would be so overused that it would make you roll your eyes after the 10th time its used. Lets take for an example the first couple of episodes where half of Cids lines were repeating the same phrase over and over and over again and apparently thats what makes a joke in this series. This season there was even an entire arc built on fake drama I cant even think why someone thought this was a good idea it was as smart as someone asking if theres poverty why dont they print more bills? which is almost the basis of the entire arc. Oh and that arc is followed by an original episode obviously for the sole purpose of promoting the gacha game so instead of actually doing something with Shadow Garden they just thrown them in swimsuits because actually creating a character out of these pieces of cardboard with boobs would be too much work. The battles of course are still as uninteresting as ever because as the first arc showed the MC is so strong that even one of the monarchs of the Lawless City who was strong enough to actually fight against Shadow Garden was still easily defeated by him. How is he so strong? Because he is the protagonist of an isekai series where the world bends over in favor of the MC to get maximum power fantasy points for those selfinserting as him. Actually that is the entire joke of the series that whatever delusion the MC has is actually true and this problem goes all the way back to season 1. And dont worry about animation it looks about the same as it did in season one which is mediocre but nothing too bad. How this shit is popular or considered good at all is something I will never comprehend I always compared it to Overlord as it has pretty much all the same issues that one has and while I guess that is good for some people for me it means that the series belongs in a trash bin. Thank you for reading.
