Speedy Cars, Speedy Drama and Many Couples
Honestly, I didn't think Pit Babe needed a second season. I was already satisfied with how Season 1 ended, even though Way’s death left a sting. But the moment they announced Season 2 and dropped the trailer — I was hyped. And as expected, it didn’t disappoint. Season 2 is just as intense as the first. This series really knows how to keep things entertaining—with solid casting and a gripping storyline.The pacing felt a bit fast, but I actually prefer that over those super slow-burn dramas. One thing though, there were a lot of couples—so if you're into simpler, more focused plots, this might feel a bit chaotic for you.
---
Babe & Charlie
I saw a few clips of Babe with Willy and honestly thought something was going on between them. 😂 But Babe and Charlie's chemistry is still as strong as ever. I couldn’t help but giggle every time they threw those cheesy, flirty lines at each other. And as much as I cringe at them calling each other “mama” and “papa,” I have to admit—it’s kind of adorable.
---
Sonic & North
I was really hoping these two would end up together in season 1—and boom, by season 2, the writers gave it to us. I just love their dynamic—their friendship, their chemistry, everything.
---
Jeff & Alan
They went through some rough patches and miscommunication, but thankfully they managed to work things out in the end. Love them.
---
Chris and Pete
I don’t really have much to say about them. Their chemistry just felt a bit off to me—not sure what exactly was missing, but something didn’t click.
---
Kenta and Kim
They developed feelings for each other, but Kim had to return to Korea. Not every love story ends with a happily ever after, and that’s okay.
---
Special shoutout to Milk (Willy)!
He seems pretty new to acting, but he nailed his role. And honestly, the whole cast did a great job.
---
Overall, Pit Babe is a fast‑paced romance set in the high‑stakes world of racing, with fantasy‑tinged power dynamics and a sizzling BL core. It stands out for its bold aesthetic, chemistry between Babe and Charlie, and its attempt to fuse genre elements into an emotionally driven drama. Thank you so much, CHANGE2561 for producing a wonderful series.

wasted potential on
This series would be so much better if some relationships had more screentime. I know the series is mostly focused on charlie and babe but honestly ive already seen them enough i want to hear more about kim and kenta and north sonic. Charlie and Babe act irrationally almost for the whole season, Alan became dump, and honestly some plot twists were just cheap?? also for what sake we have omegaverse in here like damn its not a necessary. Also treating SA as a somwthing hot isnt cool yall should stop that and touch grass. (willy and babe scene)Thats my opinion u dont have to agree have a nice day

Some scenes were good, some were really not up to the mark
I think it's better than season 1. This time the plot wasn't a whole mess. It had it's plot holes but it was still well made and never felt overwhelming. The start was strong but they messed up the ending. It was too rushed.There were elements of suspense. There were actions and really good racing scenes. The suspense of whether Chris is Way or not kept me going till end. The couples showed good chemistry. Willy played by Milk is definitely the show stopper for me. He did an amazing job and is probably my favorite character along with Chris and Ken.
I was expecting a little more from storyline.

I had no expectations and still was disappointed by the nonsensical plot choices and bland ending
Not going to lie, Pit Babe Season 1 is definitely not a series I would recommend as it is deeply flawed. Still, I wanted to give a shot to the Season 2 as I thought it could explore the lore more and provide a more satisfactory take on this very specific universe as well as on the various characters.However, the writing was particularly weak. It first approached some interesting ideas but very quickly fell apart with characters making all the bad choices and a too easy ending. Another big issue was the numerous secondary couples : there were so many of them that it was impossible for me to really care about any. As in Season 1, the fantasy universe was not exploited enough : instead of developing the lore, the scenario got stuck on one note.
It is not all bad, as I quite enjoyed the performance of Pavel as Babe. He delivered some solid acting moments despite all the cringe factors from the script. His chemistry with Pooh (playing Charlie) was very good and probably the main reason I completed the series. Production was also good overall, even if some fight scenes could definitely have been better, they did not feel too cheap. The OST was quite enjoyable at first but clearly became too much as it was overused.
I would not recommend this to people as there are better BLs out there. If you had already mixed feelings regarding Season 1, this Season 2 will certainly not change your mind.

It's important to say that this is NOTHING like the first season
Let's just say that majority of us liked the first season a bit more. Why is that?Well first of all, the characters had some personality and you actually grew some attachment to each of them. In this new season, everybody just seemed so damn OFF. Like sonic for example - him being mean to North for no reason at all is not a change of behaviour because he went abroad and was distant, it's pure mischaracterization. Season 1 Sonic would never be such an asshole, he would hate his new self. Then you have Babe and Charlie, the famous main characters - don't these grown men know what communication is? Their relationship always somehow revolves around sex, but this time it was worse especially because they are boyfriends already, but still often treated each other like friends with benefits or something. They lacked showing GENUINE LOVE a lot. Alan and Jeff - again, miscommunication at it's best. Lying to each other made things only worse for both them and others in the team. But of course, each couple got better near the end, that's good at least. They had to grow up someday, didn't they?
Second of all, this season was very rushed at some point, especially the last episode. You didn't have time to feel any emotions at all because everything just flashed before your eyes before you could feel a single emotion. The plot was also quite different from the first season plot, but I wouldn't say that's much of a bad thing, it's just that the X hunter team kinda lost it's value and it wasn't about racing anymore, more like trying to stay alive and improve their behaviour.
But if we look at the more positive side of Pitbabe, you will be glad to see the X hunter team again, reunited. After all, the side couples finally got the amount of screen time they deserved since forever. That's one thing I really appreciate as a Kentakim and Northsonic lover. So of course, there are many good things about this season so if you like a bit of an action and frustration, give it a try. Me personally, I'm a huge fan of Pitbabe and I know everybody worked hard on this season, so I won't give this some low rating because despite all of the things that I disliked, I enjoyed watching this season as well, it's just that I really missed the first one.

Different than exprected
When I first heard that Pitbabe was going to have a second season, I was really excited. I couldn't wait to see the characters again and also maybe see the long-awaited romance between North and Sonic lol. The trailer looked awesome, and that only made my expectations grow more. I even waited 13 weeks so I could binge-watch it! When I actually started the series, I felt a little conflicted. Not that it was bad, but like I said, I had higher expectations.Don't get me wrong, the actors did great! It's just a shame that this season wasn't written well like the first.
Also, I am a little perplexed that they cut out Alan and Jeff's bathtub scene. When I found out that that scene was basically supposed to be them being on the same page again after the whole Tony thing, I was happy. But nope. They removed it. A little disappointing, but whatever.

Waste of Time
Welp, it’s official down from that 8.0 rating and honestly, I was just waiting for it to drop 🥴. The drama had potential, it really did.. until Willy’s character got side lined and everything just slid into meh territory. The action? A whole 1%. Some of the acting? Oof. It’s painful watching others improve while a few folks act like growth is optional. No aura, zero charisma, dialogue flatter than a pancake (I won’t name names, but whew 😬). They had all the time in the world to deliver drama, but clearly, romance was the only priority. And that daily car race? Still scratching my head over its purpose. Cool concept, but execution? Mid.Was this review helpful to you?

Another season of "How To Traumatize PitBabe". Either one of the writter hate Pit Babe either one of them just enjoy to see Pavel cry. Bestie saw his boyfriend die twice, lost a lot of his friends - mostly because of betray. CharlieBabe
I love them. Expect them to be more ansgty because of Willy but no. And please Charlie Babe learn how to comunicate beside sex.
JeffAlan
Why did Jeff start to see Tony? Didn't understand, will never??? Plus, he said to Alan "comunicate with me" but end up not doing it??? Wth
KimKenta
Sad they didn't appear more?? I wish they did develop them more. Plus why don't they end up together???
NorthSonic
They are really cute, please, I needed more of them
PeteChris (or whatever the ship is named)
With what Chris said to Pete at the end, I'm really disappointed they didn't show how and when Pete discovered he did really fall for Chris fr himself and not for Way.
By the way, I'm happy Chris isn't Way (sorry I did hate Way).
In conclusion (??), I didn't wanted this season 2 (just because I didn't see the point. But I was hook by every episode. Now I expect a spin off for KimKenta, NorthSonic and PeteChris. No really, they put too much couple, and give them not much screentime (and I get that they really give what they could, but they should have made a longer season if they wanted to developp all of them).
Disappointed they didn't get anyone pregnant.. Mpreg nation we lost.

Good storytelling and tension arc
This second season is proof that consistency in storytelling between multiple seasons is possible in BL. The character development picks right up where it left off and the tense moments of the first season are being rivalled by those in this sequel. Great watch, never a dull moment. The only disappointment is in the development of the couples besides CharlieBabe and UncleJeff. PeteKriss falls flat at a certain point where it was sizzling just a moment before. KimKenta is not really explored and NorthSonic... Well maybe they're keeping these stories for next seasons.Was this review helpful to you?
PoohPavel Chemistry
Genuinely love that even though Charlie has lost his memories, bits of him still remember Babe, the chemistry between Pooh and Pavel is so good they’ve got me believing everything is going to be okay! Not sure how they’re going to wrap up the craziness of this season in 1 more episode, but I’m just happy to get to watch them all for a second season!!!This season has definitely Levelled Up! Insanely good, can’t wait for next week.
I know it’s crazy to hope, but I’m manifesting a season 3! Please Change!!!

What I Liked
- fun racing sequences
- visuals
- chemistry/intimacy (ready for and interested in more)
- sweet moments
- mystery element
- production value
Room For Improvement
- established couples had terrible communication, noble idiot tropes
- idiotic plans
- too much time spent mourning a character who did some really terrible things, I think they should have stuck with showing short grief scenes with a couple characters instead of that scene with everyone in episode 1
- once again we had a ton of characters (and new ones were added), there wasn't really a re-cap from season 1 and I was struggling to remember who some of the characters were/their relationship to other characters
- too much time spent on nonsense plot stuff instead of relationship development
- amnesia trope
- nonsense plot stuff (police aren't aware or involved at all???, believing people because they say so, not having security, etc)
