Allison and Lillia (Season 2)

Rating: 3.5 / 5
Reviewer: Marc


Season 2 of Allison and Lillia takes up 19 years after the adventures in season one left off, following Allison's 15-year-old daughter Lillia and her friend Treze through a trio of four-episode story arcs. It's got almost as much adventure, more satisfying multi-layered plots flavored with a shot of international politics, and a pair of teenaged protagonists who are almost as much fun as Allison and Wil, plus said troublemakers and their friends back as adults. The visuals seem smoother and more comfortable as well, and the voice cast is just as lively and fun. The positive adjustments compensate for the less-fun changes, so the second season would be almost as much fun as the first were it not for a completely pointless bit of murky morality early on that undermines the character empathy and a final episode that runs itself off a cliff at the very end for absolutely no reason whatsoever.

Still, though it hamstrings itself early on and ends on a maddeningly frustrating note, on balance season two of Allison and Lillia is another solid, fun chunk of adventure.

Quite Good :)
