    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you like tech going bad and living forever tropes, you've watched half of season 2. Dull writing.
    * Ice - Let's run and do some whale watching
    * Tall Grass - Finding slenderman zombies in a field
    * The Drowned Giant - Excruciatingly boring. I'm sure it kept the budget low with a static giant
    * All Through The House - This earned the 1 in my rating.    … Expand

    Compared to season 1 this is one is absolutely boring and doesn’t have anything to say. There wasn’t a single memorable episode. Not one.

    While I loved "Ice" and "The Tall Grass" animation, this season has been dissapointing overall.

    Completely mailed it in this season. Fewer episodes and no episodes with any originality or creativeness. Every episode was a filler at best. Some were worse. Season One was fantastic. Season Two was a train-wreck. We waited over two years for junk. Very disappointing. What went wrong? Do not bother with season two. You won't miss a thing.

    It felt like these (non-)scripts should have been only prologues of feature-length ones - if only they were. Also lacking unique elements, and, quite sadly, any ambition whatsoever, both in visual and audio departments this season, the 8-episode offers way more disappointment than it created with its two-year-anticipation.

    From all of those animation I liked maybe one, or two. It was more like watching tech demo, then story. Nothing new, lot of cliches. Full season overall is very meh. If you are really bored and there is noting else you could watch.

    While most of the series reached the heights of Zima Blue or Secret War in this season (barring the exception of Pop Squad and All Through the House), I felt that the show was more consistently great then Season 1, with none of the episodes ever reaching the mediocrity of Blind Spot or the Dump

    A solid season with only one episode that was not that enjoyable. It's a bummer that they are only eight episodes.

    Season 2 of Love, Death and Robots has a somewhat more dull writing than the first season but still offers some top notch/award worthy animations.

    Many of the episodes in the season to be much too similar in theme or animation. Most of the episodes for this season were easily consumable for Netflix rather than genuinely interesting.

    There were episodes in the previous season that really stood out even if they weren't my favourite in some area.

If the story wasn't good, the animation was different; if the animation was more standard, the plot was solid, etc. However there This season just kind of blended together, I found many episodes to be generic with maybe only two really good ones. There was little diversity in what was presented (including characters). Comparing to the last season, the range of variety in stories / animation / characters / themes was just lacking, making too much of the season to be forgettable. Variety in all areas nearly completely disappeared. An anthology works best when it provides variety in its overarching themes, I don't think this season accomplished that. Season 1 had more episodes, and, therefore, inherently had more variety. "Immortality" and "Robot malfunction" cover half of episode's themes (with no greater depth than that), while "photo realistic CGI" is more than half the animation. If you're going to have only 8 episodes don't make them 80% the same, try and make each as unique as possible. Disappointing. Better animated shorts can be found on YouTube.    … Expand

    Eins vorweg. Aus technischer Sicht ist Love Death and Robots Season 2 fantastisch. So schöne Animationen sehe ich selten, wenn sogar gar nicht außerhalb dieser Serie. Jede Folge hat einen fantastischen Artstyle von dem ich nicht genug bekommen kann.

    Leider hat Season 2 allerdings ein großes Problem gegenüber der ersten Season. Keine der Handlungen reist mich vom Hocker. Bei vielen Folgen habe ich keinen Kontext und wenn ich den Kontext verstehe endet die Folge.

    Ich möchte ein Beispiel geben.
    Season 1: Jenseits des Aquila-Rifts (Name der Folge unsicher)
    Ich wusste jederzeit was Sache ist und trotzdem wurde ich am Ende überrascht. Sogar noch besser. Beim zweiten Mal schauen sah ich Details, die ich vorher nicht wahrgenommen hatte! (z.B. der Schatten einer gewissen Person) Hammer!

    Season 2: Folgenname leider unklar
    Ein Marine stürzt auf einen Planeten ab und geht auf eine Station und wird dort von einem Wartungsroboter gejagt. Dazwischen bekommt er Flashbacks wie er auf eine gelbe Kugel zufliegt.
    Schlussendlich besiegt er den Roboter.
    Ich bekomme absolut keinen Kontext und bevor ich überhaupt drüber nachdenken kann was Phase ist endet die Folge....

    Das streckt sich leider über die ganze Staffel. Ich kann es leider diesmal nicht empfehlen, denn ich schaue jede Folge von Season 1 lieber als eine Folge von Season 2.    … Expand

    While not as good or as creative as the first season, season two has very nice short stories, which are confidently well animated. It's just that some stories fall flat here and there, but the episodes are only 20 minutes long at their highest, so I highly suggest you watch this, if you already liked season one.

    More introspective than the first season, I loved it. "Pop Squad" and "The drowned giant" almost made me shed a tear. Too bad it was only 8 episodes. Please, Netflix, more!

    Love, Death & Robots: Season 2 is a thrilling addition to the adult animated anthology series from Tim Miller and David Fincher. The season features eight new animated shorts, each with its own unique style, story, and animation techniques.

From a    Love, Death & Robots: Season 2 is a thrilling addition to the adult animated anthology series from Tim Miller and David Fincher. The season features eight new animated shorts, each with its own unique style, story, and animation techniques.

    The series continues to push the boundaries of storytelling and animation, offering a diverse range of themes and subject matters. From a post-apocalyptic world to a time-traveling detective story, each episode takes the viewer on a new and exciting journey.

    One standout episode is "Ice," which features stunning 3D animation and a captivating story about a group of scientists stranded in the Arctic. Another highlight is "The Drowned Giant," which uses beautiful hand-drawn animation to tell a haunting story about a massive corpse that washes up on a beach.

    While the series continues to impress with its animation and storytelling, some episodes feel too short, leaving the viewer wanting more. Additionally, a few episodes feel a bit too familiar, with similar themes and tropes to previous seasons.

    Overall, Love, Death & Robots: Season 2 is a must-watch for fans of adult animation and science fiction. With its impressive animation, creative storytelling, and diverse themes, it earns a solid 8/10 rating.    … Expand

    Though its narrative reach and explorative curiosity have been lessened, “Love, Death + Robots” still makes for a tremendously entertaining watch, albeit a very, very short one.

    There’s a slight widening of the show’s scope, even with 10 fewer shorts to consider and a bit of the show’s earlier DNA still intact.
