It's a shame that not more people are watching this. It's such an underrated and slept on show.
Close to if not same level fight animation & coreography as One Punch Man Season 1 or Eminence in Shadow. The story and characters might not be as interesting to some people but just going by the fight scenes alone it's so worth watching. I feel like if this had a Japanese Voice Over it would be incredibly popular. The music fits so well, the art style is beautiful, it's a nice breath of fresh air if you're used to just watching Japanese Animation.
To be honest it took quite some time until I got used to the Chinese voices when I watched the first season/first part of this show but it's so worth it if you can appreciate pretty visuals and epic fight scenes. There's even some comedy mixed in aswe…

Review for Season 2:
Just learned a studio of six people created the best fighting animation I've ever seen in my life.
What I wanted from the series was a much more appreciated engagement with the characters, and yes, it's very little time to actually get there. Four episodes aren't nearly enough to flesh out a story… But I was wrong about that. It isn't a masterpiece in engagement, but it's an incredibly solid foundation for the character's because of their backstories.
Instead of context clues, the writers delved deeper into the why's and when's of each person, and by god, now I'm locked inside the series. It's a story that builds towards personal stakes, and how those destroy the world by sheer consequence of the minority. Give strong people the power to change everything, and a s…

Wu Shan Wu Xing: Xichuan Huan Zi Lin does a good job of wrapping up the loose ends of the episodes 4,5 and 6, which brings this story together in the 7th episode, leaving the audience fulfilled with this 2-hour ride, and giving us some nice cliffhangers to lead us into the final chapter(s). With a passionate push to polish this into a beautiful gem in the end, I believe we will be in for a hell of a ride the next time we get reintroduced to Fog Hill. This season does have some problems, like a juggling act with its story, but again, the final episode did the rest of the season justice, so I can't be too hard on the criticism. Ultimately, the animation carries the anime, and does so beautifully in episode 7. That is why I watch Fog Hill, and so, I am happy with its presentation.

This show is superb, SUPERB. I came into this watching season 2 straight after season 1. I was coming into this season on a MASSIVE high. Season one if one of the best anime have ever seen. Season 2 did a great job at maintaining my love for the show. The animation is very much aligned to my taste. I still think Demon Slayer is the greatest feet in TV Show animation. I say TV specifically because i haven't seen enough movies to make this claim for all anime forms. This show however is my favourite. It is absolutely gorgeous.
The animation is this season is just as good. Ill be honest, some of the set pieces are even better. Its getting silly now how good the animation is in this show. I wont say much more as I said enough in the first review. These comments still stand so here is what i…

The folks watching Fog Hill are honestly brain-dead; that said, this season wasn't too shabby. There's another review out there with mixed feelings, and folks blasted the guy with 24 perplexed emojis. It's honestly hilarious because the ones claiming this is a masterpiece are delusional.
The initial season was action-packed and genuinely intriguing. However, its major flaw was the story's scale. In just 3 episodes, they crammed so much lore alongside the fights and everything else. The second season was more about exposition than some full 12-episode seasons of other shows. To truly build up these three seasons, they should have at least 24 episodes. If folks are evaluating shows solely based on animation, well, this is probably the anime GOAT. But if we're trying to be objective and unbi…

One of the most unique, action packed, fantasy donghua that I have enjoyed... and I avoid donghuas
Ever since the first Fog Hill kept being pushed on my timeline I just wanted to watch it for the fights and skipping the lore and dialogue because most common donghuas overcomplicate their lores especially on things referencing chinese myths or fables. This sequel improves upon the first season and more, each episode with an interesting story and action sequences that makes sense and looked like a high budget shonen's climax fight per ep.
dunno what to say other than I'm excited for the next season/sequel

The second season improves on what the first was good at. The visuals are more consistent, as no longer some elements look like they don’t match well with others in some scenes, and the animation during non-action sequences has improved.
The big improvement of this season was the sound effects which were mediocre in the previous one, and are now good. The music and the voice acting retain the same level or at a bit better, since now more demons appeared and they all have cool and differently sounding and well mixed and edited voices. A big change I noticed where the opening and ending, as the ones from the first season where quite inferior and more relaxed, and the ones from this one are slow but powerful rock ballads with traditional Chinese music vibes, very appropriate.
The fights di…
