My overall thoughts / opinions on BOZ Season 2
Spoilers ahead
Things I liked:
Character designs: (Especially for) Gaia, Persephone, HEKATE, the Sphinx - etc. An honorable mention is Artemis and her bow's design
Seeing characters with more screen time since the last season: Athena, Aphrodite, Demeter, Artemis - I'm sure I'm forgetting more. Demeter is part of the story, there's a few cool scenes with Athena, and we actually get dialogue from Aphrodite and Artemis. Not much, but some.
The plot / story: How they expressed what Hades and his family have to endure with Persephone leaving every six months
Seeing characters I honestly never thought I'd see: Cronus, Rhea, THE KOURETES, Hestia and again HEKATE
Hestia just being a badass
Seeing Hades' and Persephone's children
How Hades and Persephone meet / develop feelings for each other
More details to Seraphim's past / was not expecting to see him ever having a love interest
A better depiction of Hera
Seeing scenes of Zeus' birth and his early years of life. Zeus' early myths are some of my favorites. I loved seeing baby Zeus and the Kouretes this season. I could honestly just watch this show accurately depict the myths and be happy.
I will mention her again: Hekate. Her design, her role, her inclusion in general. Hekate just being present at Zeus' birth made me happy since theres a myth of Hekate being the one to offer the stone to Cronus to devour in place of Zeus. Also making the rocks actually resemble a baby's sound and movement makes Cronus look less silly.
We barely see Apollo, Hermes, Poseidon, and Hera. I understand why not so much of Poseison and Hera, and I'm glad Hades had a bigger role this season, but I think I just love Hermes and Apollo so much that I expected to see more of them.
Another honorable mention: Seeing the Amazons
Finally, the ending. I really liked what they did there.
------
Things I didn't care for:
Making Demeter a villain, basically. This was one of those things I had to try not let bother me more than it would have, much like how Hera being the villain last season bothered me. It's one of those times I have to remind myself this is just for entertainment purposes.
Calling Hekate a witch: Look, I get it. Not a big thing. It gives her more depth and we only know so much of Hekate before she started to get linked with magic.
Was it just me or did this season go by quick? I think both seasons have 8 episodes so I don't know why it felt like this season just went by so fast but it did.
Those things slightly bothered me, the list below really bothered me.
Ares. You know what I'm talking about.
Watching the Keres eating.
The worse for me was, what's he called... the tree bender? Did I really have to see him kill a man that way? Did he really have to fucking kill Gorgo? I'm aware this show is made by the same team behind Castlevania and I don't do gore well.
----
Overall happy with this season and am so happy they made a new season. I read that they have enough material for 5 seasons. Let's hope!
