K-On! Vol.2

K-ON! vol 2 continues the first season of the series. Though more of a sitcom style series (there is no real overlying plot, aside from the general background oh high school life) with each episode bringing up new adventures and possibilities. But K-ON! is better known for the adorable characters (Mio Akayama has an insanely large otaku following), the fun music, and, most important, the mood that the series cultivates. This series has such a feel-good take on friendship that it makes for a really fun slice of life style anime.

I love the K-ON! series (including the K-ON!! follow up), though i understand the criticism that there isn't much plot development and the characters don't arc much. However, if you are looking for a series wherein you can enjoy a fun cast of characters and join them for their afternoon tea, then this will prove to be a rewarding series. You will like this if you enjoyed Azumanga Daioh. it has a similar feel.

a note on the product: 100 minutes seems not much (half of a short season). but if you already got volume 1, this will make for a necessary follow up.

While volume 1 set up the characters, volume 2 sets the story in motion. Containing episodes 5-8 we get to see the girls have there first concert, throw a Christmas party and try and recruit new members. Overall volume 2 really picks up the pace and for me things flow nicely. One of the things I love about K-On as a whole is that it's not a series you have to focus the whole time, you can just check your brain at the door sit back and enjoy a good light hearted comedy. The real star of the series is ,as corny as this sounds, the music itself.

Now getting to the basics of this volume, The voice acting from the English dub team at Bang-Zoom continues to improve and the actresses are getting better and more suited in there roles. However the Japanese version is still my preferred track. A lot of people have complained about the 2.0 stereo track, while yes I would love to have the dub in TrueHD 5.1 Lossless audio, It doesn't bother me that much and both tracks come though clear and with good quality. The bonus features are well done with a interview with Cristina Vee (English voice for Mio) as well as an English version of the one of the songs "Fuwa Fuwa Time" witch sounds really good in my opinion.

I think that this anime is one of the best, in my opinion. It's smart, funny, and original. If you want to see the lives of some not-so-ordinary teenage girls who build their own rock club, I suggest you watch this. The main character is a girl named Yui Hirasawa who joins the dying club, and discovers just how much she loves music and being with the friends who help her along the way. And in this volume, the high school adventures continue. Great for everyone of all ages!
