Here’s the first episode of our second show this season! As I mentioned in our Fall Plans announcement, this is actually a pretty special project for me because White Album Second Season was the first TV anime series I ever worked on, exactly four years ago (and oh my God the nostalgia is incredible).
If you’re wondering whether or not you need to watch the two seasons of the original White Album before watching this, the answer is no. The two series don’t really have anything to do with each other, save for a few Easter Eggs for nostalgia’s sake. It’s a completely new story with new characters etc.
Without further ado, please enjoy the episode!

    I’m surprised LB Refrain hasn’t been finished yet

  7. Thanks!
    Let’s hope this one has a more likeable protagonist than the first series… 😛

  8. Niyari on October 6, 2013 at 7:09 pm said:

    judging from the first episode, this is a really good pick

  9. @ Enz
    You’re welcome. It means a lot to us.
    @ Niyari
    It gets better.

  10. Thanks UTW! I’ve been waiting for your release. Seems like fall is going to be a good season in terms of romance animes. Past seasons were lacking good ones…

    @stgmefly They’re not doing that show for the reasons Raze stated in the Fall Plans post.

    I didn´t know that Asuka (from Evangelion) had a sister !

  13. Xikarra on October 6, 2013 at 8:05 pm said:

    Thank you. Was waiting for this one.

  14. Thanks!

  15. Frosty the Snowman on October 6, 2013 at 8:10 pm said:

    Show most destined to not get picked up for NA release that looks like it might really deserve it. Looks like a good show, hopefully it delivers!

  16. BakaPhoenix on October 6, 2013 at 8:27 pm said:

    OMG RAze, i LOVE you, after i saw this anime i was stunned, i really like it (Altought i really hated the original white album). It was a shame that only horrible subs did it and UTW did it.
    I really love you XD

  17. I’m trying to adjust titles and season numbers for the new season for my aggregated anime torrent feed at: http://feeds.feedburner.com/magao-rss/anime?format=xml
    What do you think the title should be for this release?
    White Album 2 – 1×01
    White Album – 2×01
    Something else?

  18. Ignore that unicode x in the titles … they got converted when the comment was posted.

    Thank you for putting this is, I was going to skip this but since I know now that that’s the case now I’ll give it a try.

  20. hitagi on October 6, 2013 at 9:01 pm said:

    Thanks a lot for this UTW, really enjoyed this first episode!

  21. BTW I’m leaning towards “White Album 2 – 1×01”.

  22. BEST FIRST EPISODE OF THE SEASON! WOOOOOOOOOOO@#$@#$$!#!@$

  23. stgmefly on October 6, 2013 at 9:35 pm said:

    Oh shit I completely missed the part about them not doing LB sorry about that

  24. Nice! Thanks for the release! 😀

  25. Whoops – that’s the wrong feed too (too early in the morning). This is the right one.

  26. “(and oh my God the nostalgia is incredible)”
    I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. Well, it was moreso for you subbing the series itself (thank you from all the way back from 4 years ago!!)
    I had to watch the last 2 minutes at least a dozen times OTL she can sing homg ;AA; it’s utterly beautiful. K_ON! Ui hahaha. Can imagine Nana Mizuki and Aya Hirano’s singing when instrumentals of their songs come on ; v ;
    Looking forward to this series, keep up the great work!!

  27. darkslayer on October 6, 2013 at 10:54 pm said:

    @Raze I think some 3 seconds missing in the beginning after the White Album title shows up, which makes the music stops abruptly. I mean I watched the HS one already and UTW one miss that part, is it because of the raw or what?

  28. @darkslayer
    Seems like it was removed from the tv broadcast to fit inside the timeslot.

  29. That was so much better than WA 1.

  30. DragoZERO on October 7, 2013 at 1:16 am said:

    God I loved the first White Album. Quite the experience watching both seasons. Thanks for picking this up and covering the songs. This is one series where a CR sub would be really bad.

  31. is it better than first season?!
    although I don’t watch fist WA

  32. majorax on October 7, 2013 at 1:46 am said:

    Thank you UTW (Raze and ar, I love you both)! Even though I rarely take the time to comment (english is not my main language and it always takes me a while to write something decently) I’ve been watching most of your releases since the very beginning of UTW and I am still amazed by the quality (and speed) of your work.
    As for this episode, the last five minutes were absolutely glorious. This was a really cool way to link both series.

  33. Ashitaka on October 7, 2013 at 2:31 am said:

    Thanks, Raze, for the bit about not needing to watch the original series, I’m a little more than halfway through and didn’t know if I needed to wait.

  34. XOXOXO on October 7, 2013 at 2:34 am said:

    ahh thank you Raze and your partners.
    At least this anime is saved from CR’s moneygrabber and any awful quality fansubbers.

  35. alex0714 on October 7, 2013 at 2:42 am said:

    It’s not need to watch the other seasons? Then i’m in. Thanks UTW!

  36. macxxx007 on October 7, 2013 at 3:06 am said:

    Okay, cool… Saw the first two seasons and I saw this and I was like “HOW CAN THEY EVEN CONTINUE THIS?!”
    But now I get it… new story and characters… all right… thanks so much!
    Have a good night!

  37. Xthetix on October 7, 2013 at 6:03 am said:

    There are around 8 seconds missing after the White Album 2 title shows up.

  38. thank God you decided to sub this, i was waiting for proper sub and suddenly you sub this one.
    the first episode was pretty good, those who watched WA1 would love this.

  39. Anime Feed on October 7, 2013 at 6:39 am said:

    thanks to admin 🙂

  40. Thanks for the episode UTW, just watched and really liked this anime.
    Will be getting the first White Album to watch for sure.

  41. Soukyuu on October 7, 2013 at 2:04 pm said:

    I still have nightmares remembering WA s1. Didn’t have the nerves to watch s2
    Is this a similar facepalm-fest? Did I give up on WA too soon?

  42. darkslayer on October 7, 2013 at 2:12 pm said:

    Actually if you pay attention to White Album setting too aside from the MC I think you’ll enjoy it more. Since IMO the MC is not that bad from the start, he has reasons which made him like that. Still though, facefalm fest! (Y)
    Anyway, this is White Album 2, not White Album Season 2. So its completely different story and really worth to watch!

  43. voltageee on October 7, 2013 at 2:44 pm said:

    Is it true that they’re only going to animate the introductory chapter? That would be kind of disappointing, as it gets really good after the introductory chapter.

  44. iprolyh8u on October 7, 2013 at 3:08 pm said:

    If it’s only 13 episodes, it’ll probably only do Intro. T_T

  45. Two questions (unrelated to this release) if you fine people at UTW don’t mind:
    1. Do you have plans to sub Suisei no Gargantia OVA’s?
    2. What’s happening to the last four episodes of Petit Gargantia – are they simply not out or did you decide not to finish that?
    Thanks in advance for any answers.

  46. Dark_Pride on October 7, 2013 at 10:10 pm said:

    Thanks for the SD release!

  47. carbondog on October 8, 2013 at 4:46 am said:

    I’m not one to judge a series from it’s first episode, but This is so, so good.
    The Subtle tie-in’s to WA1 were nice.

  48. Modhesh on October 8, 2013 at 9:43 am said:

    The moment White Album was played, the nostalgia started to strangle me. I can feel the warmth of Aya Hirano’s voice in that song (yes, I think of Aya Hirano instead of Yuki Morikawa here, also the reason why I watched WA in the first place). Thanks for this!

  49. kidlat020 on October 8, 2013 at 12:36 pm said:

    And now….
    anyone SPOILER me in this ep! anything and everything that isn’t mentioned here but was mentioned in the VN.

  50. What is a good portmanteau of imouto and some other word? Name as many as you can please.

  51. cinia pacifica on October 8, 2013 at 4:07 pm said:

    Just finished first ep and omg, dat nostalgia when the song kicked in.
    Really looking forward to next ep.

  52. CRAZEH247 on October 9, 2013 at 12:13 am said:

    Anyone know when UTW will release 17-END of Shin Sekai Yori BD? Been waiting for that for quite a long time but I heard nothing about it.

  53. Read the FAQ on the right hand side.

  54. thanks

  55. yoooo are you subbing the Illya bd specials?

  56. iprolyh8u on October 9, 2013 at 8:38 pm said:

  57. UTWfan on October 13, 2013 at 4:43 pm said:

    It took several weeks to finally convince my heart that this is something I should watch before I judge. After finishing other series for the week, I finally took watch the first episode of White Album 2. It was rare for a slice of life genre caught my attention. I didn’t expect it to have such a strong start. This series looks promising and hopefully UTW will sub this one until the very end.
