So I just watched the 5th episode of Shana II and it seems to be lagging actual plot development a lot. It's definitely the weakest one out so far as nothing exciting happened. There was a little progress on Konoe's mysterious background as well as Ogata & Tanaka's relationship but it still felt rather lacking.
It's getting quite funny to see how dense Yuji is to Shana's feelings let alone Yoshida's (who had actually confessed to him). What makes it even more funny is the fact that Yuji was able to quickly pick up the original Yukari Hirai liking Ike in season 1 but can be so oblivious to the girls around him from their actions in this season. Heck even Ike had to tell directly to Yuji about him spending way too much time with Konoe which affected Shana & Yoshida.
This second season started off great but it's kinda worrying to see it slip and drag out the whole love-triangle/square issue ever since Konoe entered. Her mysterious background does have an interesting part on the story though and certainly raises questions on what the Bal Masque is up to.
