The gang is still stuck in El Hazard. Makoto is trying to locate Ifurita, and at the same time he is searching for a way back to earth. EH2 is a filler of sorts, showing us how life went on after the chaos that ensued in EH1 . The plot is fine if you've watched EH1 . If not, you're bound to end up confused and lost because EH2 assumes that you know all these characters already and are familiar with how they are related and what happened beforehand.
Pacing is okay, and it gets better as the story progresses.
The gang's comedic antics are sure to elicit some laughter too. Although EH2 has its moments, it doesn't quite measure up to the grandeur of EH1 . Lesbian themes are more pronounced in EH2, thanks to the added presence of Princess Fatora. Characters tend to look half-baked at certain angles. The English dubbing is done well, as is the case with all EHs.
