The adventures of Orphe, Ed, Lui, Camu, Naoji, and Isaac continue in this second installment of the series. The aftermath of the king's failed assassination attempt seemed peaceful. This time however, each of the Strahl candidates has to confront his past to determine if he is fit to become a public servant. In the first series, Orphe's and Ed's past were the highlights. This time the other three take the spotlight. It might seem at first glance that these nobleman live carefree lives, but the series shows that they too have to overcome personal challenges before they can even face bigger problems ahead in their careers.
Compared to the first season, this series has more action and character development. Tension from the failed assassination attempt is further built up here in the disappearance of the headmaster. The Strahl candidates also have to cope with the new academy rules and threats from outside. Overall, the second season has made up for some of the missing elements in the first season. Still, it's still lacking. The characters are glorified too much for their abilities yet there isn't a lot of proof to such claims.
