I'm Joybo 2nd Season

#我是江小白，有话对你说。 为了梦想，我们愿意付出多少代价? 我们能彻底忘了过去而指望一个美好未来吗? #I am Jiang Xiao Bai, I have something to tell you. How much are we willing to pay for our dreams? Can we completely forget the past and count on a better future? Don't worry, from now on I will only write in English and not in Chinese. Each of us has words inside that we would like to say but cannot. Each of us has dreams that we want to achieve, but sometimes we cannot. Each of us has a certain person who we love above everything. The anime poses itself with all these questions. The first season definitely has to be watched to understand allthe actions that are going on in the second season. It is a continuation of it. STORY & CHARACTERS: The story of our two main protagonists 佟 离 (Tong Li) and 江 小白 (Jiang Xiao Bai) continues. After the end of the first season, where they found each other, everything seems to be great again. But our lovers also meet new and old problems from the past. Can what happened at school back then with the accident of 穆 夕 雨 (Mu Xi Yu) simply be forgotten and looked into a bright future? Even though our protagonists love each other more than anything else in the world, difficult decisions about the future still have to be made. How are their jobs going? Can a good collaboration continue? We also get to know new characters and their touching background stories. These also had to go through a hard time in their life. All of these questions and many more will be answered here in the second season. ART: I am a big fan of the Chinese anime industry because I can understand everything without subtitles. But the animation here clearly shows that it cannot keep up with the Japanese production. It is the most flawed thing. There are still too many problems, which creates the feeling that it is not completely fluid. SOUND: Beautiful, touching, brilliant. I have to be honest on this point and say that the songs are only super to listen if you can understand Chinese. The music itself is very too, but without understanding the text I can hardly imagine that it will have a big impact. In Chinese music, the lyrics are always of great importance and you have to understand their true meaning here too. ENJOYMENT: In comparison to the first season weaker, the story is no longer so creative and exciting. Still, I really liked the anime. Not only I did see a good continuation from the first part and enjoyed great music, I also learned something about the city Chongqing 重庆. I personally have never been to the 30 million people city, but I would love to go on a trip there. You should not expect it to look as empty as in the anime. Free places on the train? There is practically no such thing in China. So if someone is going to visit China, many, many, many people are there. All in all, I had a lot of fun watching the sequel. It can't keep up with the first season, but it's a very good work. The only (and very much) thing that bothers me is the art and it's style. The anime has still not been translated with eng sub and it probably won't come, which is a shame. It would have been nice if not only Chinese could enjoy the sequel. A third season is also confirmed. The original date of Fall 2019 could not be met, but the start of the third season is planned for May 2020. I am very excited about it! I know that this review will probably be rarely read here, but I decided to write something about it because it is a great anime overall. If you have any questions about this anime (production, songs etc) or general Chinese stuff, please feel free to ask me!
