Yeah, it really seemed like they showed us wayyyy too many new suits in the first 2 episodes. Like the monkey Amazon that the Team X guy turned into? It was onscreen for like 2 seconds and we barely got a good look at it. I expect we'll see a lot of reused ones from here out.

Anyway, all caught up on season 2 finally! It's been interesting. I actually think using the old cast to keep the show worth watching until the new cast got sorta interesting was pretty smart. Chihiro in particular I feel is getting a worse rap than he deserves, though we'll see if he starts to improve after we learn his backstory next episode like I think he will.

As far as his relationship with Iyu being creepy goes, I think that's what they're going for. I mean, I do think she's going to start becoming more of a person, but like...he's essentially a teen who thinks he's in love with a girl who literally has no personality. That's such an adolescent and narcissistic view of love, and I hope they really use that. I mean, yeah, she's the only person he doesn't want to eat, but maybe that's just because she's dead? Amazons only seem to like to eat live humans. Plus if the theories are true that he ate Nanaha, they could add a heaping helping of mommy issues to it.

Maybe that's not the route they're going, but if the theme of this season really is "love" like they talked about in promotional stuff, I'd love to see them examine the subject that way.

Side note, the girl's liquefied brain sliding out of her ear onto the floor in the doctor episode is probably the closest Amazons has come to making me sick. Even Iyu's dad eating her eye didn't bother me as much as that. Also:
