The second season of the anime television series "Kuroiwa Medaka ni Watashi no Kawaii ga Tsuujinai" (Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms) will premiere on Japanese television in January 2027. This was announced by the official production team on July 3, 2026. At the same time, a character promotion video focusing on the heroine Mona Kawai was released.
The clip, animated by SynergySP, features a compilation of key scenes from the first season, which aired in winter 2025. The romantic comedy is based on the manga series of the same name by Ran Kuze, which has been serialized in "Weekly Shonen Magazine" (Kodansha) since 2021. The total circulation of the printed volumes has now exceeded 2.8 million copies.
In mid-May 2026, a teaser visual and a teaser PV were released, hinting at the changed dynamic between Mona and the titular character Medaka. The second season focuses on Mona's awakening genuine affection for the boy who is the only one to resist her charms. At the same time, new rivals appear, further complicating the romantic entanglements.
The production team remains largely unchanged: Yoshiaki Okumura returns as director, Mayumi Watanabe handles character design, and Akiyuki Tateyama composes the music. A key change is the series composition and screenplay, now handled by Yoriko Tomita (known for "My Dress-Up Darling"), replacing Kazuyuki Fudeyasu. The main voice actors also return: Ryouta Iwasaki voices Medaka Kuroiwa, and Yuu Serizawa voices Mona Kawai. Other returning cast members include Sora Amamiya, Kana Hanazawa, Hinaki Yano, and Kaori Maeda.
To mark the announcement, the "Medakawa Mune Kyun Award" launched on July 3, allowing viewers to vote online for their favorite dialogue lines and scenes from Mona's perspective. Participants can win a poster of the teaser key visual and mini character stickers. The campaign runs until July 12, 2026.
The second season promises to further develop the characters' feelings and push the comedic entanglements to the limit. A specific broadcast date in January 2027, as well as the channels and streaming services, will be announced at a later time.
