Teekyu - Season 2 Episode 1

To be frank, I hate this series. I do not know how this gained popularity. I have no clue at all how the first season started only five months after the manga started. I found it absolutely boring, as well as irritating, and would like to know what people group this is aimed at.

Believe it or not, all these images are from HD sources
 The overly fast talking. Sure, talking fast can be a way to pull more attention into what is being said. In this case, it was more of a way of squeezing in as many bad jokes or 'comedy' scenes in a single three-minute episode. It is very hard to understand why the 'jokes' are even relevant in the situation they are used. Why does it even make sense that a high school girl is suddenly thrown into the air by a group of toddlers as soon as she arrives at their preschool? Why is there an obviously non-Japanese ex-soldier working as the principal? What on earth is barbed wire doing in a preschool? In what kind of situation does crouching at a child's eye level make you a mercenary? Not only is the comedy strange, but it lacks explanation and more importantly, it's not funny.

Wonder how baaaaad the quality must be in 480p, or lower
The animation is very poor as well. The character's movements are not shown to be in the fluent, smooth movements that most animes show, but instead switch between poses to move from place to place. Even worse, any character who is not part of the current conversation does not move at all. This is a good technique in putting emphasis on who matters, but it is done so much that it is evidently just being lazy.

Poor child, this is just outright abuse
The music is matching to the scene, surprisingly, but again, as the scenes are so short and random, the music doesn't last long enough to really have a role in making the anime noticeably better.

May I just add, that child is bald
Although it was made clear at the beginning, I despise this anime and would recommend it to nobody at all.
