Seems like Slaine is piloting a mech in space, maybe among the ruins of the Moon.

Ugh, so many people are still alive that I was hoping had died in the finale of the first season.

This show was pretty good when it started, where did it all go wrong?

Not surprised that the princess is alive tbh. Still, I wonder who else is...

The theme song is decent though imo.

This show's story has become one convoluted mess but I have to admit it has a swagger about it that keeps me coming back to watch.

Oh dear lord, the princess is alive

I was worried about the first season and bashed it because they killed the peacemaker, the warlord and the pilot which, in gundam terms, means the end of the themes of a show.

This however is just an ass pull. How the hell are they going to write themselves out of this?

A wizard did it !
So I guessed right and the bullets were of the fake kind as in Yakuza 4. I love it if i can predict shows that i don´t even watch.

Consistency in storytelling is a western disease.
Japanese are not going to have an existential crisis because the second season of Aldnoah is a little bit inconsistent with the end of the first season. At the best they'll say "yes it appeared as if the two main characters were deadly wounded", at the worst they'll just ignore the issue altogether.
Just look at Gundam Seed Destiny for what I mean. They brought literally back from the dead one of the major characters of the first season. Did that send shockwaves and people stopped watching ? No.

I am seriously curious how they are going to write themselves out of the hole they dug last season.

I read an article by a Stanford professor on why Asians Student don't get good grade in writing. Even though the story is good, they still don't get good grade because of cultural different and they don't like to follow the western standard rule.

I can't find that article anymore, but this is an article that said the same about Chinese Student

lol, dat 2nd comment tho.

And for your options, I say none of the above.

I think the Princess was paralyzed due to a bullet to her spine, and so she's unable to move any of her limbs, except maybe her arms.

oh by very much spoiler[If Inaho somehow is alive, then there is ZERO consequences for "being killed"]

Anyone upset over the Princess being alive clearly wasn't there for the discussion of the observation that the second bullet only grazed her, the first having apparently hit her spine to cause preview's necessity of a wheel chair.
