This series is episodic, though a few thin threads do link some episodes. Contrary to the first season, Kino's presence is prominent in roughly half of the episodes. The quality of the story is very irregular in this season. Another difference is the presence of ugly CGI, which fortunately isn't widespread enough to spoil the fun.
Despite those minor defects, I really enjoyed this. The strong points of the first season are all there: psychology, meeting strange traditions, cruel fables. I thought 5 episodes out of 12 were superb. Two of these were new takes of the first season, but enough time had passed so I just remembered the story, I wasn't comparing every scene. Other episodes sprung various levels of interest, and I thought 2 of them were failures, but that didn't stain the whole. I long for a third season with 12 original episodes.
