Looks like more of the same from the first season.

Since I was disappointed with how pretty much everything deviated from the manga source in the first series, I'll stay away from Capu2.

I don't understand why people got all butthurt over the first season when it came to fanservice. Its a shonen harem-romance series, more fanservice than what is shown in the Manga should have been welcomed by more people.

I'm usually all for fanservice (I'm a huge fan of Bastard), however R+V just has too much, and worse yet they pretty much traded the fanservice for plot. Much of the good story in the manga was cut out of the anime. It took them the entire first series to get to Volume 3 of the manga.

And I'll be honest I now hold almost no hope for Capu 2. There are 7 more volumes of the 1st manga series to go through yet it looks like they're throwing it by the wayside and jumping right into the 2nd manga series (the smaller red-haired girl is from season 2). They're totally throwing the Outcast Ayashi and Anti-Thesis arc out the window.

I hope the sliver of hope I have left for Capu 2 isn't crushed in the first episode.

Agreed. The series was just total bollocks. On my radio show this series was #2 on my list of shows to Avoid At All Costs (beaten just barely by "Moetan"). Gonzo should've put the money they used for R+V to good use (like, IDK, the Hellsing OVA and the new "Afro Samurai" season)!
