Those Who Hunt Elves II - Still Stripping After All These Years (Vol. 2)

Rating:
Summary: Even Worse Than Volume 1
Review: I bought these two volumes of Those Who Hunt Elves 2 because I enjoyed Those Who Hunt Elves 1. Unfortunately, the second series is just terrible. While the first volume of this series has some redeeming moments, the second one has none. One big mistake they made was to try to have the characters explain themselves as good at heart. Why bother? The problem with any explanation is that it makes you think. Thinking is probably the last thing you want to do for a show like this. This is because once you start thinking the entire premise of the show becomes plain stupid. The elves, instead of living in fear of being stripped against their wills, can just volunteer the information concerning the existence of the spell fragments on their bodies. This is because the fragments are often regarded as disfigurements by them anyway, so their removal is like free plastic surgeries.

Unlike the first series, the stories in the second series were not funny, and the attempt to inject morals into them was the death blow.

Finally, the absence of Jessica Calvello in the role of Celcia deprived the dub of much needed energy.
