To mark the start of the second season of the romantic comedy series ›Seihantai na Kimi to Boku‹ (English: ›You and I Are Polar Opposites‹), the production team has released a new key visual. The illustration shows the two main characters, Suzuki and Tani, together with their seven classmates, forming a large heart as a group—a motif symbolizing the growing relationships within the clique. The accompanying slogan reads: "Youth accelerates!" (Japanese: „青春は、加速する！“).
The second season will air from July 5, 2026, every Sunday at 5:00 PM on Japan's MBS/TBS network (28 affiliated stations) and will be available half an hour later simultaneously on the streaming services ABEMA and Prime Video with the fastest release. The first season premiered in January 2026 and aired in reruns on MBS from April 7.
The series is based on the manga of the same name by Agasawa Kocha, which was published on the Shonen Jump+ (Shueisha) platform until 2024 and received numerous awards—including first place in the "Minna ga Erabu!! Denshi Comic Taisho 2024" in the men's category and seventh place in the "Manga Taisho 2024." The total circulation, including digital editions, now exceeds 2.1 million copies.
For the second season, the main voice actors return: Sayumi Suzushiro as Suzuki, Shogo Sakata as Tani, Yuna Taniguchi as Watanabe, Konatsu Hirabayashi as Sato, Anji Iwata as Yamada, Miyuri Shimabukuro as Azuma, Wataru Kato as Taira, Cocoro Omori as Nishi, and Tomori Kusunoki as Honda. The opening theme is contributed by artist 7co with the title "Nekojarashi" (Japanese: „猫じゃらし“)—lyrics and composition by Nanako Ashida and RYUJA.
Production continues to be handled by Studio Lapin Track under the direction of Takakazu Nagatomo. Series composition and animation production are by Teruko Utsumi, character design by Mako Miyako, and music by tofubeats.
The manga itself ended in May 2026 with the eighth volume. The second season of the anime adaptation is expected to cover the story from the remaining chapters and continue to follow the development of the relationship between the extroverted but insecure girl Suzuki and the quiet but confident boy Tani.
