I just finished act 1 and was wondering what the community thinks of it. I thought it was good, but a step down from season 1.

The animation is as gorgeous as ever, maybe even better than season 1. The writing and pacing was kind of messy, though. The music was just overzealous too. They have a random music video with cheesy lyrics in each episode now. Just ruined the mood for me a couple of times.

did you feel the writing just got messy in general or does it seem like they were stretching stuff out in order to split the season up into multiple parts to delay the conclusion?

This will be the last season, actually. I felt like some plotlines were moving a little too fast, especially in episode 3.

Dang I originally just saw the "9 Episodes" count for the season and thought they were all out and more were on the way, not realizing that only three episodes are released at a time with the next parts just being the other six episodes. Netflix has been big on the "one season split into multiple parts released at different times" that I thought there was going to be Season 2 Part 2, not even realizing it's just a weekly release schedule with three episodes per week. Turns out I'm not watching this as slowly as I thought I was haha.
