2 was an improvement, definitely funnier and easier to follow, visuals continue to be very unique and the Romantic Comedy aspect is starting to show.
The concept of underlings is quite interesting. Geki is next!

On the other hand the gratuitous nudity is simply silly. Navi makes sense due to the whole visual motif, but that last scene... tacked on.

….Man this series is on crack!

The craziest thing so far must be the reason for Hitomi being unable to see the monsters this week.

I mean, the fuck!?

…No the craziest has to be the woman randomly starting to take her cloths off towards the end.

No freaking clue. Some assistant I guess

The opening theme is catchy as hell though

She's Black Condor's secretary, if I remember the cast page correctly.

She's not a former porn star like Navi and the karaoke bar owner's actresses (and the detective chick who hasn't appeared yet), but she has done nude modeling.

Are we talking about THE Black Condor?

Well whatever that scene was weird.

Only just now watching the second episode, man I didn't miss TVN's shitty encodes. Subs aside, the actual quality of their video is always shit. I don't know what they compressed this with, but I've seen DVD rips released like seven years ago with less tearing and pixellation.

This was basically another whole episode where I never knew what the fuck was going on, to the point where I swear some scenes were edited out of order. Still, the actors involved seemed to be having a great time and that made it very fun to watch as well. It was so balls to the wall in places, that it was just downright laugh out loud hilarious.

The action however, I was less impressed with. Underneath all the flash, there actually wasn't a lot to it, like at all. Rai did a few flips, waved his stick around and it ended. The hand to hand combat was brief, and the energy attacks lacked a sense of impact, plus although the setting for the fighting was visually awesome, the disconnect from the real world took a lot of the weight out of the hits. Still, it was GORGEOUS.

I definitely enjoyed this way more than the first episode though and am hungry for more.
