There were so many different emotions conveyed in this season, and a lot more in depth look into Eleven's (the psychokinetic major character of the show) back story and feelings. I really enjoyed that about this season, because as much as Eleven was loved last season, we didn't really get to know her much, until now.
We got to see more of Will as well, who was taken to the Upside Down by a Demagorgon last season. He experienced a lot of pain in this season, as if he hasn't suffered enough already. It was a whole new experience watching it, though, because he spent most of the last season being missing from most of the action that took place. I actually really enjoyed the actor, Noah Schnapp, having a bigger, more prominent role in this season. We got to see his full potential. This season examined his post-traumatic stress after escaping the Upside Down, which wasn't the only thing he had to go through. (As I promised, no spoilers).
We were also introduced to some new characters this season. Two of them are Max (or Maxine) and Billy, the new kids in town. The show portrayed their (somewhat abusive?) sibling relationship, and a little more insight on what their family is like. Max has also been caught in an unexpected love triangle between Dustin and Lucas, who are also two of the major characters in the series. It's more of a middle-school-crush triangle, though.
As for Mike, this season showed him longing/waiting for Eleven to come back into their lives. I felt like this season basically built up his story to his reunion with Eleven, whom he has deep feelings for. They both obviously really liked each other, and "Mileven" (Mike and Eleven's couple name) fans were driven insane, desperately waiting for the reunion.
