The news regarding the series' sequel comes directly from My Dress-Up Darling’sofficial website. An illustration from the series' writer, Shinichi Fukuda, and a promotional video is also out to commemorate the announcement. Currently, the show runners have not shared any other information regarding the sequel, but we can expect to get more details, including the release date, soon.
The illustration features Marin Kitagawa sitting on Wakana Gojo’s shoulders, and both have Marin’s cosplay mask on their face. While Marin’s mask is on the side, Gojo’s face is covered with the mask. Gojo also holds a banner that says, “Congratulations, sequel production decision!” Here’s the new illustration you need to check out.
The promotional video is out on the official YouTube channel of Aniplex, and it recollects all the great moments from the first season, like Gojo preparing cosplay dress for Marin, their casual meet-ups, and the moments they shared with Sajuna and Shinju.
In the last episode of the first season, we saw many romantic moments between Gojo and Marin. After facing a lot of troubles, they are finally able to make it to the summer festival, where they enjoy fireworks together. Gojo saving her from drowning, both the love birds watching a horror movie together, and Gojo carrying her in his hands due to her swollen feet — all these moments stole our hearts. But the one that took our breath away was when Marin confessed her love after Gojo had fallen asleep. Now the question everyone is asking is if either of them will confess their love to the other, or do we still have to see them acting as just normal friends. Everything will be answered soon with the release of the second season.
Here’s howCrunchyrolldescribes the story of My Dress-Up Darling -
Wakana Gojo is a high school boy who wants to become a kashirashi–a master craftsman who makes traditional Japanese Hina dolls. Though he’s gung-ho about the craft, he knows nothing about the latest trends, and has a hard time fitting in with his class. The popular kids–especially one girl, Marin Kitagawa–seem like they live in a completely different world. That all changes one day, when she shares an unexpected secret with him, and their completely different worlds collide.
