After catching up with the manga

I feel like the anime didn’t do the series justice, in not just the story but with the characters, and I hope it does get a second season because the continuation of where the manga left off the story balances the comedy and seriousness more equally. The further the plot advances, more mysteries are left behind. Like Abe no Seimei’s past and his decisions, and mysteries of those who were connected to him when he was alive. What I like about this manga is, yes, there is funny moments, but it also explores beyond the students to a past that harbors heartache, and loneliness of the people who were part of a previous era.

If they do make a sequel, I think the next arcs that pick up where the anime left off, it would be great to depict character developments and conflict all in one. Like the principal’s reveal and students fighting Seimei’s loyal subjects… I wanna see that animated so much! Fingers crossed! Also physical release of this manga in English when :D
