The first series was awesome so the basic question is this series any good?. Well yes, Not quite as mind blowingly good as the first series but it's still worth it's own weight in salt. Most of my complaint with this season is based upon how heavily almost every episodes weighs into the main plot line. The first season was Stand Alone Complex, every episode either weaved a part of the larger tale or was something to be appreciated for in it's own right. Season two has much more trouble distinguishing between these situations and most of the plots fall into the main plot line or seem vaguely defined to fit in there whilst providing some coverage. The series does still derail into individual character plots, which are not to be missed, and it has a good sense of trying everything up.

Once again though, this series carries more than your average pigeon's worth of philosophy in with it's kicking the shit of people in a pleasant manner. It takes some of the main characters and gives you a lot more details of their how and why and the series still has the Tachikoma's which are quite frankly the most amusing anime personifications ever developed.

If we were ranking this on an arbitrary scale I'd say A+.

Japan is harbouring an immigrant population in a disused section of Tokyo who are feeling the chains of oppression and wish for freedom

Main Description

Section 9 has been reformed secretly, hidden from the knowledge of the public. All the regular cast return to form the secret branch of the government designed to deal with cyber crime aggressively. Now they face a terrible foe, an increase in domestic terrorism fuelled by a secret organisation pushing forward an anti-immigrant ideal. All the while normal branches of the Japanese government push to limit sections 9's ability to investigate and solve problems as they are happening. Who is causing all the problems? Are the immigrants forming a terrorist cell or is the government secretly conspiring to control them to their own means?

The first series was awesome so the basic question is this series any good?. Well yes, Not quite as mind blowingly good as the first series but it's still worth it's own weight in salt. Most of my complaint with this season is based upon how heavily almost every episodes weighs into the main plot line. The first season was Stand Alone Complex, every episode either weaved a part of the larger tale or was something to be appreciated for in it's own right. Season two has much more trouble distinguishing between these situations and most of the plots fall into the main plot line or seem vaguely defined to fit in there whilst providing some coverage. The series does still derail into individual character plots, which are not to be missed, and it has a good sense of trying everything up.

Once again though, this series carries more than your average pigeon's worth of philosophy in with it's kicking the shit of people in a pleasant manner. It takes some of the main characters and gives you a lot more details of their how and why and the series still has the Tachikoma's which are quite frankly the most amusing anime personifications ever developed.
