Nintendo presents: PitBabe Kart
Honestly this season was a major letdown. I didn't expect too much anyway but at least the same quality as season one would have been nice.
The story felt mediocre at best — it dragged with a slow pace at times, lacked focus, and gave the impression of unfinished or abandoned storylines. Like Kenta and Kim? They did all that for nothing? And Winner didn't even got an ending?
There were too many couples going on in such a short time, which meant none of them got the proper screentime or development they deserved. It all built up to a bad ending for all of them which left me unsatisfied.
Overall, it felt like the writers didn't knew how to properly end the series.
Speaking of characters, their portrayal was just as frustrating. Most of them barely had any screentime, making it hard to connect with or care about their arcs. Like in season one, there were unnecessary NSFW (and SA!!) scenes that added nothing to the story. But that's personal preference.
Kenta’s character especially suffered — he acted reckless the entire season, even though he was more careful and self-aware last season. It made no sense to me.
However I also have nice things to say. The acting by the cast was very good and I really enjoyed Kims character yet again despite him having such little screentime. Winners perfomance this season and character arc was also very strong.
The music in season one really bothered me but they got it right this time. It was way more watchable.
Overall, Pit Babe had potential, but this season felt rushed, disjointed, and careless — both narratively and in terms of character development but still had some good aspects.
