I binged this one and I must say I wish I'd started watching this from the beginning. It's so nice and comfy. I hope for a new season

Bit of an odd statement. It's not as if all Proton users are hardcore privacy fanatics who use custom ROMs on their phone

Yea the ending doesn't feel like a season ending. It's a cliffhanger for the end of an episode, not a season. No arcs were closed or whatever.

Yoko Taro is such a troll. First acting as if A2 didn't come back, only to then show the obscure Accord (assumedly) with A2.

This season has been amazing. I absolutely loved it. It's hard to speak of it on its own, since I love the game, but I think I view it as an additional route of the game. It adds and changes details here and there in a meaningful way, similar to the different routes in the NieR games (particularly Replicant). I loved seeing the slight differences and some not so slight. I also think this is the most straightforward version of the story we've gotten.

Compared to season 1 it's a massive improvement too. Better story execution, better animation, better action.

Yeah I know, but all we saw was Makoto's mother calling her father disgusting and that seems to be the root cause of why she thinks that way. We didn't see her get bullied or whatever.

The chibi "animation" be looking extra cheap this episode.

Good end to the season, but clearly leaves things open for, I assume, the final movie. Not sure I believe Makoto's mother having some sort of trauma reaction to her son because her father wore femine clothes.

They don't quite provide the same service as privacy.com though, do they? I have wise instead of revolut, but I was under the impression that privacy.com had more rigorous privacy protections

I've bought some of Hololive's stuff on qobuz.com, where I buy most of my digital music. You just need to search for the Japanese name. Seems like they have stuff from Miko, but not her newest album. They'll probably have it a little later though.

A European alternative would be great, since privacy.com only seems to do dollars

So, the 1st season of the remake covers books 1-4. Both seasons of the original covers 1-3 and 5. So, no, skipping the 1st season is not recommended imo. That also means the 2nd season of the remake starts with the final arc of the original. However, the remake is really close to the original. Here and there it's a little more faithful to the books and Holo is a little more playful. So, if you watch the final arc of the 1st season, I think you should be fine, but then the 1st arc of the next season is a repeat again. I'd still recommend watching the remake in full, just to get used to the new artstyle and music.

If you've watched neither, then I guess the safer bet is to just watch the new one. I personally prefer the original though (for personal reasons like preferring the music and style).
