Just finished season 1 not too long ago. I heard season 2 explains a lot more, but it's apparently shit. Should I proceed?

I'm in the dead middle of watching the second season and I'm enjoying it. =\
It is certainly different, though.

Btw, what was that mess at the end of your post supposed to be? (Looks like some failed ASCII picture due to forum formatting or something.)
... yea ...

I don't know why people called season 2 shit; they obviously set wrong expectations of the series as it's FAR more than "killer cute girls". Seriously watch season 2 as it does a damn good job explaining the essence of the main characters' motives and resolves as well as the real reason why all of the stuff happened in season 1.

It did screw up D: but I think only 2 lines of it are out of place.

Mmm yeah I was really wanting to watch it simply because I wanted to get a more in-depth explanation than what was offered in the first season. Also, I heard news for a third season, so I might want to watch second now to appreciate it.

Not using Monospaced fonts or forced line break limitations are the two most common things that can cause problems.

Looks like that for me too, and pretty good once you focus you realize what it is.

So I just finished watching both seasons of this show (and loved it), and I have to wonder - is there any chance of some company ever picking the dub back up and releasing the rest of the R1 DVDs, since Geneon went and dropped everything they had? (That still boggles my mind...)
Or should I just not hold my breath and resort to finding a way to import R2s?
... yea ...
