Student Council's Discretion Level 2

Student Council's Discretion Level 2, also known as Seitokai no Ichizon Lv.2, is an animated comedy series that premiered in 2013. Produced by the renowned Kadokawa Pictures Inc., the series is a sequel to the original 'Student Council's Discretion', which established its niche presence with a unique blend of school-life, comedy, and parody, appealing to a wide range of audiences who love humor, heartfelt moments, and playful character interactions.

Set in the world of Hekiyou Academy, the storyline revolves around a student council imbued with a lively bunch of characters who ensure an entertaining journey with every episode. Unlike ordinary student councils, Hekiyou Academy's council is selected based on popularity. As a result, it has a unique ensemble cast, each member with distinct personality traits and conducting themselves back and forth from serious, dedicated council members to a group of high school students fooling around, thereby creating a dynamic narrative environment.

At the center of this character ensemble lies council vice-president Ken Sugisaki—formerly the academy's worst delinquent. He is the only male member of the council, having secured his spot by achieving the highest grades, and his ambition to create a harem with the rest of the student council members adds to the humor of the show. His constant teasing and open affection for the girls add to the hilarious dynamic of the show.

Other characters like council president Kurimu Sakurano, an adorable but immature character obsessed with pink and sweets, Chizuru Akaba, the soft-spoken, glasses-wearing secretary with a devilish personality lying beneath her docile exterior, Minatsu Shiina, an energetic sporty girl who is a massive fan of shonen manga, and her younger sister Mafuyu Shiina — a shy, gentle, yaoi-loving girl, further spice up the hilarity of the show with their unique characteristics.

The second season, Student Council's Discretion Level 2, takes off where the first ended, diving deeper into the lives and interactions of the main characters with even more humor and wittiness. Still, it also manages to mix in elements of heartwarming sentiments and character development. The chemistry of the characters grows stronger as the series progresses, with episode plots generally following the council members' everyday life and their comedic efforts to make high school life more interesting for their fellow students.

Humor in the series often stems from parodying common anime tropes and themes, making it a joyous watch for both seasoned anime viewers and novices. Furthermore, coupled with unique character dynamics, the series remains thoroughly engaging, often poking fun at themselves and the anime medium as a whole.

Along with comedy, the series also capitalizes on heartfelt relationships among the characters. The interactions and relationships between the characters are infused with warmth and love, creating a heartfelt atmosphere amid the comedy. These scenes often provide depth to the characters, making them more relatable to the audience and driving the plot in unexpected directions.

The pacing of the series is fairly relaxed, unfolding day-to-day events and interactions without rushing towards a particular apex. This leisurely narrative style suits the offbeat humor and casual high school setting perfectly and keeps the audience hooked on anticipating the next batch of laughs or endearing character interplay.
