Almost anything else this season feels either too serious, or not as relentlessly cheerful, as Dog Days S2... but for that list there there's also Sword Art Online of course. Though as I just said, other somewhat generic action/harem shows like Campione, etc. feel pretty serious compared to Dog Days'. These first two episodes have a very different tone from any of that stuff, and it's great.
