El hazard 2 le monde magnifique

El Hazard 2 is probably the low point for the El Hazard series. El Hazard two is only four episodes long and some of the artwork seemed rushed. Also, in El Hazard: The Alternative World, most of the plot points from El Hazard 2 are either ignored or completely forgotten, thus making this chapter virtually a moot point. However, is does still have some good parts, and shouldn't be completely ignored.

With El Hazard (the first series) being such an outstanding composition, a lot of us fans were crying, "More!" Well, we were thinking more in terms of excellent storytelling, artwork, wonder, and humour, but instead got more of an echo of the first. While still entertaining as a watch, there was a bit too much 'cut and paste' as creators tried to expand the universe with the introduction of new characters and foes (a common anime mistake). All told though, some highlights abound in the silliness, more action, and a few cool ideas shuffled in. Ending had nice sweet high-point, but then doused for a cheap laugh and circular character habits.
