"While some shōnen anime can air week after week without break, often suffering from filler episodes, other series are usually given one or two thirteen episode seasons to tell a story. Then there are series such as Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan which has already been given a twenty six episode season which now continues with Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan – Demon Capital. While the first season may have been lacking in a number of areas, will the start of Demon Capital pick up the pace?"
