If that's not enough for you it's one of those series that gets better the second time you watch it, too.

For the majority, this is true. However, the second-to-last episode is probably the worst in the series. But the final episode makes up for it in a huge way.

I agree but since it was just a setup for the finale the last two episodes are pretty much one in my opinion.

An older post but does that matter since it was bankrolled by Cartoon Network? If it made them a significant enough profit they could always fund more (or a new show).

I got drunk with some of the VA's; drat they are cool.

Also some how bought a katana that mimics Akamge's sword, it was only 400 bucks.

The 2nd season it stopped being funny and was just art. Like, I'm glad it exists. I watched it, I'm glad I did, but I never laughed. It was art watched for art's sake. It just wasn't funny, though.

It was goddamn entertaining though, which counts more than just being funny. if it gripped you and held your interest until it ended then it did its job.

Sorry I meant to say sometime during the second season it made this transition to a kind of rapt "holy poo poo am I watching a man paddle through a neon classical japanese wave painting, this is amazing, did someone spike my regular meds with super drugs what the gently caress even is going on here?"

There was nothing funny about that episode but it was still amazing. And I couldn't pinpoint the exact moment as I haven't gone back over the season and formatted my computer for none related accidental reasons but slowly I realized I hadn't laughed in a while. I didn't mean to suggest it was a cut and dry season 1/season 2 dichotomy.

It definitely went beyond funny. I don't know where it went exactly but I'm going to go back there many times.

This. They nailed the tone perfectly. It was every stupid HS musical show/movie done as a random episode.

You have to take into account that making a musical is a huge pain in the rear end, as is dubbing it, even more so dubbing it in time for a simulcast. Putting together a competent musical episode as a random one-off joke is just such an awesome, stupid thing to do that you have to respect it.

I didn't think of it like that, makes the effort they put in that much more amazing. The dancing at the end is so wonderfully animated.
