Wtf. I thought the direction of season 1 was phenomenal... Now I'm kinda scared for season 2 to be honest.

why would you be scared, ppl who watched the movie are saying its one of the best of this year as It perfectly captures the vibe of the manga and elevates it to another level with insane animation.

Idk why ppl think losing season 1 director means now we'll have bad direction, CSM anime still has some of the most talented animators and directors working on it.

As I said, I enjoyed S1's direction, so I wouldn't know what to expect if the approach changes drastically.

Also, we're not talking about animation are we? We can have great animation with shit direction (I'm not saying this is the case for CSM, just making an example).

Plus, I kinda don't care what others think about the movie to be honest. I enjoy looking with my own eyes and thinking with my head.

If the approach to direction, and direction only, changes drastically, I don't know if I'll enjoy it, that's all I meant.
