Hanzawa Naoki Temporada 2 (2020)

Not as good as the first season but still amazing

Not as good as the first season but gotDAMN it still managed to be incredible!
They totally went in with the over-acting and improv which can be off putting for some, but it totally works here.
The banter between Hanzawa and Owada was pretty much perfection. Their relationship reminds me of Batman and Joker- they absolutely hate each other BUT still need each other.
Kurosaki aka ball-grabber was another one that really stood out this season and I just enjoyed it every time he was on screen. Him being the only one who called Hanzawa by his first name just showed the love and respect that he had for Hanzawa- even though he "hated" him.
The casting director needs a raise because they did an amazing job at choosing the right people for their respective roles.

We had to wait years, YEARS, for this and I can honestly say that it was worth it. I personally wouldn't want another season, although the ending does leave it open for one, but would love a special or even a movie to end things.
Anyway I totally recommend this as I did the first season.

Better finish that I could ever hoped for

Reminiscing about season one, which I only watched a few weeks before starting the second season, was an energizer in my day to day life so I had huge expectations about the following season and I claim therein this review that those expectations were met. Honestly it even went above all my expectations, that said I will be waiting for the third season.
For those who are wondering about whether is the first season a must-watch before starting this season all I could say that it is. Be reassured that those ten episodes will be as entertaining as it gets and there will be no time wasted.
Our hero, sure I can call him that, does not need an annoying cape floating behind him nor a grandious entree, he is one of the common folks whose aura alone outshines those of sparkly "superheroes". It is a story worth to be told and a hero made to be admired. That being said I must confess something: unlike in the first season I had felt less tension especially in the second part of the series mainly because I was "too" certain that he will overcome anything thrown in his way. However the plot being more intriquite and well-balanced so overall I can only admit that it had truelly won me over.
The acting was of superb quality, the characters well-planned out, the events well orchestrated even if the music was non-existent at bests and mainly a part of a valid background harmony, it is one series worth to be recommended. No need to be afraid of the world of banks and its mysteries everything is well-explained and no distracting plot-holes were present. I especially loved those "ball-crushing" scenes reminding me of a Napoleonesque stature.
