This review does not contain any revelations that may interfere with watching the first episode of Blood Blockade Battlefront & Beyond. But it's up to you to see if you want to watch the episode first, before reading some details that you might have liked to discover with the anime. Read with caution.
Destination: Hellsalem's Lot
No tentacles in front of the track? No Abrams around? We can land safely! Leonardo, Sonic, Zapp and the entire Libra team wish you a safe return to Hellsalem's Lot! Didn't you miss the hectic life in Old New York City too much? No robberies, chases or kidnappings to report since October 4, 2015? Life must have seemed very dreary to you! But fear not! Oddities and other events of all kinds come back to punctuate your life today!
By the way… No one intervenes? This fall is going to end really badly…
Libra, the coolest organization on the planet!
No need to redo the presentations! You remember well Zapp, Chain, Klaus, K. K., Deldro or Sonic? Because all are back in service in this second season to support our young Leo! Fasten your seatbelt and drive! Because Blood Blockade Battlefront & Beyond will throw you into the deep end of Hellsalem's Lot, whether you are prepared for it or not! And none of them will spare you! And certainly not the infamous Zapp – who hasn't lost a gram – or the nuanced, but sexy Deldro. You're a member of Libra after all, the coolest organization in the world! Also one of the most barred, it must be admitted …
So we find during this very eventful return all our favorite characters! Who are more than fit! And which as usual, cause a bit of commotion in town. Nothing too bad, I promise! Even that they decided to put their foot down and hold back. Good news for Hellsalem's Lot and its inhabitants, right? No, you're right… We love it when they put the mess and the discord in town! With this first episode you will not be disappointed! And it is Leonardo's physique that will be put to the test, as well as his morale!
Are you ready to commit again to save the city from the evil monsters who want to destroy it? Sign at the bottom – and don't pay attention to the small lines! But we warn you… This season of Blood Blockade Battlefront & Beyond is going to be tough… And risks taking us deeper into the in-between world. There will be lots of monsters, cute or awfully hideous, fights and young women in distress – or not, we try to motivate Zapp! -. And one last detail… Never be fooled by appearances in this barge city where you will stay!
A recovery at a hundred per hour!
You thought to get your bearings quietly by enjoying a burger at Diane's? Or by landing in the park behind the hospital where Leo and White the ghost met? Let us laugh! Maybe you have forgotten it, but with Libra, even at rest, you will be requisitioned and it will not be to have tea!
From this first episode, the tone is set! With a Zapp reassembled like never before, you can be sure that problems will fall on our poor Leonardo. And we pity him in advance! Or not, actually. It is these confusions and these funny energizers that make us love Kekkai Sensen! And that we loved this episode of recovery! The atmosphere at Hellsalem's Lot is still as hectic as ever and there is no time to breathe, even for a second! The rhythm is launched, like a cannonball and you will have to follow it. Hang on tight, this new season of Kekkai Sensen promises to be brilliantly messy! Let's hope that it teaches us a little more about these powers that some extraordinary humans possess. And a little more about some characters!
At the helm on the animation side, we find the Bones studio which gave birth to season 1! No disappointment possible on this side since we find the same universe and the same chara design that we had left in 2015. On the musical side, a good surprise (for me at least) with the reunion with the energetic and vitaminized group UNISON GARDEN SQUARE who interpreted the ending of the first season of Kekkai Sensen. And that we find this time in opening with the title 「fake town baby」 that we already appreciate! I expect a lot on the side of the soundtrack given the high quality OST that Iwasaki Taisei had offered us in the first season. And as it resumes service in this second, we can't wait!
A recovery in good and due form that gives back the fishing at the beginning of autumn! We expect a lot from Blood Bloack of Battlefront & Beyond that we will follow the whole season on DNA ? Are you too, ready to join Libra and Leonardo? Don't forget that you can also follow Leo's adventures in paper version at Kazé !
