I have been planning to watch the 1st season, so knowing it will have a 2nd is pretty nice...

They're obviously going to have to introduce new characters(including a new villain). Because the 1st season pretty much was a self-contained season that left a somewhat open, but clear ending.

I am a bit puzzled by the image posted in the story. It looks like white haired Jubei with ears like a fox. Hopefully this doesn't take a turn where they're now master samurais and have animal spirits too.

This is really good news indeed. I really enjoyed the first season. It's unique look and style caught my eye at first, but the story and characters kept me returning for more. I could see Sentai announcing this as a license as soon as the show comes out. (hopefully)

Awesome! First season was a surprisingly good show, and I'm really looking forward to the 2nd.

spoiler[If I'm remembering correctly, only the villain's servant was finished, whereas the actual villain was only (temporarily?) driven away. So there is a possibility that he may return.]

Great, ANOTHER Japanese show with xenophobic isolationist fetishism.

Like we REALLY needed another one of those.

Sounds good. I loved the art style of the original, and it had some really nice fanservice

Awesome to hear, I liked the first season, especially with such unique censors and old style paint. Hope Sentai gets it again and Ill definitely buy

Ew. Wait until the Blu Ray release to watch shows like this.

Didn't like the paint splotches?

I actually got more enjoyment out of the show BECAUSE of them.

It was some creative censorship, sure, but it got old fast.

Samurai Girls season 2? I liked the first season when it was funny or sexy or fexy but when it turned serious, I lost interest.

Great art style and Aoi Yuki was fantastic {who else could bark and cry at the same time?} mitigated by a surprising amount of nihilism so I'm only mildly interested.
