Presentation
The box art this time is far more simplistic, showing Shin (I suppose roaring at us?), Penny (with her back turned), and her poor beaten rabbit (whom looks quite worried) on a white background. This perhaps reflects how much more down to earth this part of the season is in comparison to part 1. The back of box once again contains various characters in various poses with interesting expressions and costumes. The inside box is a simple white desire with just one quote from the series. The quote’s actually pretty fun to say if not a little bit disturbing. The animation is the same quality as before, coming from the same era as Astroboy and Speedracer, using simple character designs and backgrounds. The music is that same catchy tune. Be warned, it will stay in your head for days. But it’s fun and cute, so more than likely you won’t mind too much. Once again there is absolutely no Japanese cast. This of course still shocks me greatly, but once again the American cast does a pretty does a pretty good job. This part of the season contains the same adult humor, though it seems to be a bit more thought out and witty then before, making it far more enjoyable. Just keep in mind not to have your kids around, less you enjoy the idea of them running around and making fart jokes and perverse comments.
Extras
Like the previous installment, this series has a TON of Extras. There’s the whole section dedicated to Alternate Takes, Bloopers and Songs, though this time it also includes a section dedicated to all the various conversation in the backgrounds of each episode. The commentary on Episode 51 is absolutely hilarious as the voices of Penny, Boo, and Maso join in making fun of each other and discussing the fact that they are not discussing the episode at all. There are of course also the original storyboards. The really neat extra this time is a “sad” music video by Ben Arntz. Then lastly there is the slew of trailers.
Overall this is probably the best part of Season 2. A coherent story really brings this series a bit more together and makes a lot of the crude jokes far more enjoyable. I repeat my earlier statement and still strongly advice against letting children watch this series. This is more intended for late teens and early twenties.
