About this deal

It's some Joseph Joestar shit I tell you, I can just imagine the author sitting in their room yelling "next you're going to say, oh so this is how that happened" after every chapter. I think I can say now we're firmly in the unraveling stage of Heavenly Delusion's mysteries, so our big question turns from, "What are the answers?" to, "Will these answers be worth it?" More specifically, does this series have anything important to say beyond its admittedly deft and intricate narrative sleight of hand? We can't answer this definitively yet—there are at least two episodes to go and more manga to read or adapt beyond whatever stopping point the anime finds—but this is an important question to keep in mind. Many stories of this ilk lose their luster or collapse entirely at this point. Personally, however, I'm not too worried. Heavenly Delusion is weird and ambitious, has an endearing cast of characters, and has been warming plenty of thematic irons in the fire. So long as it follows through on these strengths, I think it can keep its endgame as magnetic as its setup. Szenewechsel ins Paradies, wie Tokio mit anderen Kindern in die Schule geht und ein friedliches Leben lebt, ohne Hunger oder Durst zu vermissen.

However, there’s still the question of will Heavenly Delusion: Season 2 happen in the first place. You might also wonder where the story will go after the first season’s ending. To answer all your queries, here’s everything you need to know about Heavenly Delusion: Season 2. The series is seinen without furigana except for introduction of names. It does use occasionally some not so common expressions and vocabulary. Text volume is bit below average. Text density is mostly average.Both sides are very interesting: the inside shows us that these children are special, every one of them seem to have some kind of talent/power? The outside is more apocalyptic and dystopian, trying to survive alone in the world, there are monsters, etc (when that innkeeper died, wow, call me surprise O_O) Regardless a post apocalypse show without any tension really isnt a good thing.At least the lab scenes are good at setting up a mystery and I'm sure when these two storys converge it will be worth it ,but as of now the show really isnt doing it to me all that much. BUT, there is no doubt this manga is written by a man. There are tons of fanservice: naked FEMALE bodies not once, not twice, but several times; there is a scene where 2 girls (literally, little girls) are kissing; tight suit body or barely there clothes for the main female lead, while the ML is dressed with big clothes, etc. I have a great appreciation for this manga storyline; it truly stands out to me as one of the most unconventional post-apocalyptic tales. Typically, post-apocalyptic stories adhere to a familiar pattern: a world devastated by catastrophe, battles against monsters, encounters with some survivors, involvement in leadership or political matters, and conflicts among humans. I really have to give high praise for this, from the movement alone, the stella OP, the wonderful art direction and overall atmosphere. It all stands out super well, and flows so nicely. They really captured everything perfectly, and made you want to watch more for this alone. It's well done in both fields, and deserves more props than one may give it. Credit to both teams who are behind such.

After weeks on the sideline, the "Heaven" side of Heavenly Delusion takes the narrative's reins and slides downhill towards the inevitable disaster at the bottom. It feels a bit like the anime playing catchup, and that's more or less true. The adaptation, particularly with episodes 8 and 10, has prioritized aesthetics and cohesion in favor of following the manga to the letter. I've already argued that this has been an elevating approach too, so I don't mind if it means a more utilitarian installment now and then. I'd say that this episode benefits from the rearrangement, where Mimihime takes charge and becomes even more likable—and pitiable.There are a great many vegetables that we consume. Some we fry, some we boil, some we eat raw, some work well with others, and some, not so much. But there rarely has been one such green that goes with anything we may happen to mingle it with, any way we may try to employ it, or anywhere we may it incorporate, not to mention making everything better in the process. What I like about the series how intriguing the settings are from the outset. The postapocalyptic settings have unusually good balance between surviving people acting morally and being downright savages. The mystery of what did happen to the world and what is going on is slowly explored through eyes of characters without obvious info dumping. It’s also interesting how the two storylines are gradually converging towards each other. This show is an absolute masterpiece. Everything from the art to the story is truly top notch. all of the characters are well rounded and multifaceted with driven and concise goals that make sense, the trans/gay inclusivity is also greatly appreciated and is also shown in a way that will really make you think and turns everything on its head. The mystery and world building of the show is also incredibly intriguing, they feed you just enough information to keep you hooked, while laying out even bigger mysteries at the same time keeping you constantly at the edge of your seat. The animation and art I'm intrigued and that is the most important job (as far as I'm concerned) when it comes to a first volume. As I've said, the show really does an amazing job of making you want to watch more with it's direction and pacing. Getting to know the characters for who they are, and see them progress. What helps also, is that these characters aren't a

purpose brilliantly, keeping the viewer in suspense and challenging them to decipher their true intentions. The story is full of all sorts of strangeness: from brain transplants to advanced technology to what comes close to magic. But its a bit too all over the place, with the different elements not always working well together. Too many times a plot point comes which seems to only be there because it's "weird", and not because it fits the story. some of the technology doesn't make sense, and similarly feels like it's there simply because it's strange or cool.

Now, let's dive into what this season has in store for this mesmerizing anime series. Denpa, the company behind Heavenly Delusion, has officially licensed the manga adaptation for an English release. In their teasing description of Heavenly Delusion, they pose an intriguing premise, saying, "Within the safety of the walls, youths are raised in a nursery-style setting by robots. In many ways, it is like a slice of heaven. The outside world, however, has transformed into a nightmarish hell-scape. It is almost entirely devoid of anything mechanical and is now inhabited by bizarre, yet powerful supernatural beings. Maru, accompanied by Kiruko, embarks on a perilous journey across what was once Tokyo, in search of heaven."

From beginning to end, the series managed to captivate me in an extraordinary way. The plot, although not entirely innovative, unfolds masterfully. While the initial episodes may be somewhat confusing, as the story progresses, it becomes increasingly clear and captivating. The dual narrative, presented from two perspectives, adds an additional charm to the plot.Kiruko, ist der Bodyguard von Maru und soll ihn unbeschadet ins Paradies bringen, denn der Junge hat eine wichtige Aufgabe. Um was es sich dabei handelt wissen beide nicht so genau und machen sich auf die Suche. As mentioned before, the show follows two storylines. One of them focuses on the pair of Maru and Kiruko as they travel through the desolate lands with their personal goals. The other storyline involves a facility for children with special abilities. This place in the show is dubbed as 'Heaven', a name contrasting sharply with the outside word. Both storylines contains a similar tone with a sense of mystery and dark themes. Masakazu wanted us to experience the story as if we were there ourselves. His creative vision leads to many elements found in other postapocalyptic settings and most noticably, we realize how he wanted to create a society where our worst nightmares can come to life. Maru and Kiruko's journey throughout the anime shows how dangerous their environments can be. With cities in ruins, Man-Eaters are a constant threat to humanity. Their encounters with them leads to vicious fights as these monsters show no mercy against their prey. However, I would also like to mention that despite all the dangers, Maru and Kiruko make an effective pair. Their skills and talents along with resourcefulness allowed the duo to survive. for those of you who have seen the show, Imma give you one that you probably didn't notice, did you know maru means circle?.... yeah imma leave that one at that.
