Characters Introduced in Season 2:
                                                         
                                                                     Takuro Amano
He is introduced in this season as a pawn for Igneous. Igneous gives him the task of figuring out who the Love Angels are in the civilian world. He is a childhood friend of Hinagiku's. He has a crush on Momoko at the beginning, but that is short lived when love sparks between him and Hinagiku.

Potamos
Potamos is from the Devil world. She kills Igneous towards the beginning of the season and takes his place. She attends school with Momoko and her friends. She also has a crush on Yousuke.

Scarlett O'Hara/Angel Salvia
Angel Salvia is the Love Angel who possesses the Saint Something New. She is on a mission to kill Devils rather than purify them. She attends a private school under the name of Scarlett. She is much more mature than the other Love Angels.

Viento
Viento is a warrior from the Devil world. He is Yousuke, although Yousuke doesn't realize it. He is in love with Wedding Peach/Momoko.

Angel Celeste
It is revealed in the season that Momoko's mother is Angel Celeste, Aphrodite's sister. She goes by the name Sakura in the human world. She lost her memories as Angel Celeste, and began a new life in the human world. She got married and gave birth to Momoko. When she regained her memories, she had to leave her human family to protect them.

Kazuya Yanagiba/Limone
Although, Yanagiba and Limone were introduced in Season 1, we find out in this season that they are actually the same person.

My thoughts on Season 2:
-A huge improvement from Season 1.
-Angel Salvia brought a good balance to the Love Angels. She gave them the maturity they were lacking.
-I think Momoko and Yousuke's love story might be one of the best I've seen in an anime. (Better than Usagi and Mamoru's in "Sailor Moon")

Season 2's DVD collection came with the 4 OVA episodes, "Wedding Peach DX". They were entertaining, but had no real plotline and just....ended.

"Wedding Peach" Season 2 receives a 9/10 from Jewely!

The Good:
-I stayed interested the full season.
-Had a lot of mysteries revealed.
-Good story progression.

The Bad:
-Still a bit silly with the names and attacks.
-Can't relate to the characters like you can in other anime.

That's all for the "Wedding Peach" series! Like me on Facebook: Jewely's Japanimation Nation

Top 4 Anime Shows to Watch for Valentine's Day - #2

Here we are at #2, "Hana Yori Dango (Boys Over Flowers)"! I have actually never watched the anime version of this, but I have seen the 1st season of the live action series and I loved it! The main characters have great chemistry with each other and the story has some good plot twists.


Tsukushi Makino
Tsukushi is the main character. She is the only poor person at her school. She stands up to the leader of the F4 group (the elite boys club at school) when he is being a bully to a friend of hers who falls down the stairs. The F4 group then declares war on Tsukushi and she retaliates by attacking their leader. The war ensues and romances blossom during that time. 

Tsukasa Domyouji
Tsukasa is the leader of the F4 group. Tsukushi can't stand him, but he sees a little more in Tsukushi than just another victim for his little games.

Rui Hanazawa
Rui is the only member of the F4 group that Tsukushi likes since she has a crush on him. He is Tsukasa's best friend, but he is very quiet and keeps to himself.

Sojirou Nishikado
Sojirou is the playboy of the group. He's the most perverted one as well.

Akira Mimasaka
Akira is the most mature member of the F4 group. He is the kindest member and rarely loses his temper. Although, when he does, none of the other members want to be around for it.

I believe this anime deserves to be in the top 4 because it is one of the craziest love stories I have ever seen. Some of the stuff that happens, I don't think anyone could get away with. But in the end, love conquers all.
After I view the anime, I will put up a score/review for it!

So if you have the interest, make a date with the F4 group tomorrow and watch "Hana Yori Dango"!

Day 2 Question: What is the name of Gohan and Videl's child in the Dragon Ball Z series?

Winner will receive an original Christmas themed drawing of Sailor Moon by yours truly!(Not much, I know)
