As part of the «Agasawa-Kocha-Anime-Year» collaboration, a second baton touch visual has been released. It shows the protagonist of «Koori no Joheki» (roughly German for «The Ice Castle»), Koyuki Hikawa, passing the baton to Suzuki, the main character of «Seihantai na Kimi to Boku» (German for «Opposite You and Me»). In March, the reverse motif had already appeared: Suzuki passed the baton to Koyuki.

Both anime are based on the successful manga by Agasawa Kocha and will air consecutively in 2026. «Seihantai na Kimi to Boku» started in January 2026; the first season ended in March. The second season begins on July 5, 2026, on MBS/TBS (Sundays at 5:00 PM). «Koori no Joheki» ran from April to July 2026 and ended with the first season finale on July 2. A second season is announced for October 2026.

Special promotional videos have also been released for the baton touch visuals, in which the two heroines introduce the other series: Suzuki energetically presents «Koori no Joheki», while Koyuki advertises «Seihantai na Kimi to Boku» in a calm tone. The videos highlight the contrasting nature of the characters and generate additional anticipation for the upcoming episodes.

«Seihantai na Kimi to Boku» is a romantic comedy about the lively but harmony-seeking Suzuki and the quiet, opinionated Tani. «Koori no Joheki» tells an ensemble youth story about the shy Koyuki, who has built walls around herself, and her friends Miki, Minato, and Yota. The production of «Seihantai na Kimi to Boku» is handled by Lapin Track, while «Koori no Joheki» is produced by Studio KAI.

With the continuous broadcast of both works and the creative collaboration actions, the organizers celebrate the «Agasawa-Kocha-Anime-Year» – a festival for all fans of the manga author.
