The 2nd season is more of the same, so if you enjoyed the 1st season, then you'll enjoy this season.

I found it almost as good as the 1st season (which was hilarious IMO). Sure, a bit different in style, but it still packed a punch for me.

It took a weird turn compared to season 1 and it is not a good turn since everything went downhill. It is still watchable but not as enjoyable as season 1.

Alive stays true to its predecessor by preserving all the hilarious dark humor, characters traits, homages to past SHAFT works, running gags, and meta-comedy, and focuses more on its side characters along with the main cast. Dedicated fans of the first season will fall in love with it, and average fans and skeptics may be impressed by its "new" style.

female, bloodtype: AB, , androphobiaAndrophobia is an abnormal fear of males. It is entirely different from and should not be confused with misandry, which is the hatred or profound dislike of males., class presidentThey are smart, poised, caring, and they may butt their nose in where no one wants it.
The Class President is disturbed by how the lead or their friends don`t participate in club activities or how their grades are slipping and never gets the hint that nobody cares about that stuff.
Frequently admonishes the cast for small mistakes, helps makes up for the Two Teacher School, and may be in cahoots with the Absurdly Powerful Student Council. Almost always called "iinchou" in place of their real name., delusionalA character who cannot tell what is real from what is imagined. The main feature of this disorder is the presence of delusions, unshakable beliefs in something untrue or not based on reality., homosexualHomosexual refers to someone that is attracted to another character of the same sex.
A lesbian person is a female attracted to other females.
A gay person is a male attracted to other males., humanModern humans are the only extant members of the subtribe Hominina. Together with chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans, they are part of the family Hominidae. Terrestrial animals, humans are characterized by their erect posture and bipedal locomotion; high manual dexterity and heavy tool use compared to other animals; open-ended and complex language use compared to other animal communications; larger, more complex brains than other animals; and highly advanced and organized societies., ribbon tieA ribbon tie is a ribbon used to tie the collar of a shirt, blouse, or other clothing top. This means that the ribbon, with or without a bow loop, is tying a collar that is cut close to the neck (i.e. not a low-cut collar); otherwise, the ribbon is just a common case of ribbons on clothes. Please see the full description for more detailed instructions on when to apply or not apply this tag., school uniformA type of uniform worn in Japanese schools (called "seifuku" in Japanese), generally high school age or younger. They can vary considerably; commonly, females will wear a sailor uniform (modelled off the British Royal Navy uniforms in 1920) and males will often wear a "gakuran", which is a dark button-up uniform modelled off Prussian army uniforms. But expect to see a substantial amount of variety., short hairShort hair is hair from (but not including) bald, up to (but not including) shoulder-length hair. This hair length is what one would typically, though not always, see on most males. Short hair includes hair that goes no more than a centimetre or two beyond the chin; anything longer is shoulder-length.
