| It’s been a long three years since that banger of a final episode they left us on, but we’re finally back! Honestly, great to see. It wasn’t a groundbreaking show or anything, but hell, it was super entertaining and fun to watch week-to-week. So yeah, I’m glad we got a second season and it didn’t just end up being one of those one-season romances that never get continued. Picking up right where we left off, with these two idiots finally being a couple (of course), and now it’s second year time! And hey, what do you know, not only are the lovebirds seated next to each other again, but the whole gang is in the same class too. It’s honestly so nice seeing everyone back, especially Ooshiro, I missed her so much lmao. But yeah, like Ishikawa said, it is gonna be sad knowing that she won't be able to get up to her usual antics now that they are in the same class. And yes, don’t worry, everyone’s favorite sensei, Tobaru-sensei, is back too. Easily the best character in the show, let’s be real lmao. And yeah, ofc she’s picked up on the fact that Aharen and Raidou are dating now. If she was nose bleeding to the usual vanilla stuff they were doing when they WEREN'T a couple, then I can just imagine how much worse it'll be now that they're gonna be doing the vanilla shit... WHILE being a couple lol. And yeah, all it took was Aharen being inside of Raidou's sweater because she was chilly to knock her out lmaoooo. Though, wouldn’t be a second year romance without a new transfer student though, and this time, we’ve got ourselves a gyaru to spice up the friend group. I totally thought she and Aharen were gonna fight or something, and all of Raidou's thoughts while he was stalking them when they were out and about wasn't helping, but in actuality, she’s actually super sunshiney and hey, woulda thunk, they're actually childhood friends. They've had a connection for a while now, so it makes sense why I love how she and Aharen vibe, but man… …poor Raido AND Ooshiro xD Fun and solid return. It’s always nice having these guys around, so I’m looking forward to a good couple weeks with them, just like last time. |
 |
| Been some time but tbh, it feels like it was airing just a few seasons back itself lol. Although there isn’t something really drastic anyone would forget, but yeah, I just liked how despite these guys being in their second year now, the usual gang is still together, and doing the exact same kind of stuffs they used to do lol. Tells you Aharen hasn’t changed and neither does their sensei, who one of these days will become a certified patient of blood loss xD Gyaru tenko-sei is a nice addition to the cast, I mean you do need someone with a bubbly personality in this series where everyone is as quirky as the literal definition of the word goes, and hey, she an old friend of Aharen too, so yeah, she has a chance to start things with a clean slate, which she’s doing. Now yeah, this was some fine return, but I’m looking forward to how they’d approach this season, as the manga has already ended. Should adapt till the end of the manga imo, but okay, we’ll see. Also guys, do remember the names of the people you’ve shared class with.. It helps;) |
| It's been 3 years since mangaka Mizu Asato's series came out in Spring 2022, and what a time to once again receive this show back. ZUTOMAYO's OP is alright, as is shallm's ED. Both Raido and Aharen are now 2nd years, alongside Ishikawa, Sato and Oshiro as well in the same class, though with Tobaru-sensei once again knowing too much of the new couple's parade. And just like Season 1, their antics have never changed with Raido always taking care of Aharen, now with both Tobaru and Miyahara-sensei watching after them...and too bad they didn't see Aharen feeding Raido her meatballs lol, though the trauma continues with the former seeing their couple bliss. That said, the new transfer student of gal Riku Tamanaha sure takes on an interest in Aharen, and even asks her out on a girls' introduction date enough for Raido to stalk them from behind. At least she had fun, unlike her past, though Riku had better memories with her for the same period...? Aharen being transparent with Raido about her being friends with Riku, and another day she repays back the favour going to the arcade and hanging out together. But it also raises the trauma that she once had with a dear friend of hers, though back then both girls were in the same elementary school, and Riiku made a friend with her, though being annoying by dragging her around. Thankfully it's just a misunderstanding between the long-time friends, though Riku forgetting the rather huge Oshiro (who's also in the same elementary class as her), old friends are seemingly fated together. Yelp, the biggest detractor hearing Raido dating Aharen, what's Riku to do lols? Great return to what feels like a rather long time coming. |

| The cool duo is back as a couple—though I can’t remember much from the first season, I know one thing for sure: this anime’s fun. The teacher really tried her best to hold it together, lol. Aharen reunited with her old friend Tamanaha, whom she thought hated her, but turns out it was all just a big misunderstanding. |
   |
| It's so good to have Aharen san back after three years she is so adorable. |
| wow three years passed already? Toyama Nao joins the gang. that Evangelion reference tho. |
| Aharen and Raido as a couple makes even funnier, the wacky moments. I was waiting for so long for Riku to appear, since her cameo giving hope for this season 2. Define Riku in one word. Relatable. |
 |
| Peak has finally returned and this time with the inclusion of a gyaru, Tamanaha. I'm glad they were able to resolve all of their misunderstandings relatively quickly this episode and accept Tamanaha as part of their group already. The best ongoing gags (Raidou's imagination and Toubaru-sensei's reactions) were also worked back in already. I cannot get enough of Raidou and Aharen's relationship so I am extremely glad to be getting more of the anime. |
 |
| yep, not much different between the two seasons so far... except... the new girl is freaking CRAZY and over-emotional! somebody get that poor girl some mood-leveling meds so she can relax a little! :D oh and their new homeroom teacher is Miss Eleganto/Esteem herself their 1st year japanese literature teacher... or was she their history teacher? i forget. poor girl is gonna need a constant whole-blood transfusion supply to keep all those bleeders in-check! :D hah! :D |
just an ol school American otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either.  |
| My fave height gap couple are back! Aharen and Raido are just too cute, this show is so soothing for the soul and sweet to watch. It’s good for the heart, lol. Great reintroduction to the series. The visuals are simple, but I really the OP! It’s so good! Zutomayo never miss. We’re back like we never left, Raido and Aharen still cozying away their time at school and Tobaru-sensei is still their biggest fan, imagining scenarios and almost passing out lmao. Big fan of how they handled Tamanaha and Aharen’s friendship development in this episode. Aharen has a great relationship with Raido and they’re dating now, but it’s important for her to make friends as well. It was so sweet how Aharen explained she has separation anxiety because of how things ended with a friend back in the day and didn’t wanna offend Tamanaha. But I’ll never understand how anime characters go to school with people and then forget them like 2 years later lmao. They literally sat together in middle school just a few years ago cmon now! Plus even back then, Tamanaha was as an Aharen stan so she should’ve left a mark! Feel even worse for Oshiro because even with her name, Tamanaha still didn’t remember her lmaooo. Bless her heart. That ending was so funny as well, something tells me this season is going to be a lot livelier now with our Toyama Nao voiced transfer student. Can’t wait to cozy up on Mondays with this show! |

| Finally back after 3 years, missed Inorin's voice as Aharen. So the last part of s1 wasn't a dream, they really are going out. Aharen's long lost friend is also back, a gyaru voiced by Naobu. She's a fun character. But nothing beast the sensei and esteemed lol. Nice start to the season. |

| 3 years have come and gone and Aharen-San is back once more for another season! It's timely reminder of not only how much of a height difference there is between Aharen and Raidou, but how wholesome their relationship is as well. The addition of Tamanaha, voiced by one of my favourite voice actress, was really fun. Tamanaha nails that gyaru look, but it also led to the interesting development of the two of them being friends before in the past before the unfortunate misunderstanding led to that friendship ending, which did effect both of them. It's a good thing that the pair of them were able to talk about it and put it behind them so that they can be friends once again. =) This was a nice episode to get back into the groove of how charming this series can be. A nice way to start the week, if you ask me! |
| New girl looks so similar to Karen from Kinmoza, same VA too :) Aharen and Raidou relationship is so sweet, and Aharen is beyond adorable. Missed this seires :) |
| Matsuboshi's imagination has not calmed done any. Bubbly gyaru, blouse unbuttoned at top and bottom showing navel and cleavage, 6th grade friend reconecting to Reina. Are were going to get a childhood friend triangle between her and Mitsuki. Anyway Reina has preserved her social development from her previous year, and continues to advance. This show is almost too damn wholesome for and Evil Overlord like me. |

| Aharen and Raido are back! Their lack of regard for personal space and their absurd imagination will make this so much fun. Even though they’re now a couple and dating, I love that they continue to act the same. Seeing Aharen blush occasionally because of Raido is incredibly sweet. The only one in danger because of this is Toubaru Sensei, who’s now their tutor and won’t be able to avoid a nosebleed whenever she sees them. Tamanaha feels like a more outgoing Ooshiro 2.0. She had a funny moment with her misunderstanding involving Aharen and Raido. It’s been a great start. |
 |
| One of my favorite animes is back and it's even better because Zutomayo sings the opening. I can tell each episode is going to be really fun and entertaining and I can't wait for the interactions with all the characters. Looking forward to the weeks to come and hopefully we get some great moments with Raido and Aharen. Can't wait for next week and the week after that and the week after that and the week after th- 5/5 |
| Aharen-san is back with a brand new rap! Love that we got esteem teacher from the very first episode, she's the most hilarious, i swear. And as usual, Raido just takes everything to the very extreme, no matter what, haha. Anyway, loved that we got a new character from the very first episode. Had the wrong impression about her as soon as i saw her, that's she's a pushover gal, turns out she just wanted to reunite with her childhood friend. She was so cute too, would love to see more of her. |
| Yup still love this, its stupidly cute, I love his hair brained ideas and the the nose bleed teacher is now there home-room teacher so she will probably die by the end of the season due to blood loss. |
 |
| Missed the shenanigans of these two. :D |
| Damn, it's been three years. So glad to see those two dorks back. |
 |
| Aharen-san (Now Aha-chan) is back! Now I can fully understand Toubaru sensei. This first episode was to die of cuteness, especially with that new girl. |
| ©2025 LaczPro What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway). And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea). |
| Nice to see this series return. Quite the unique OP. At least their class has some familiar faces. While its nice to see Aharen make new friends looks like Raido has a new rival. Being dragged all over the place would defo be a exhausting exp as a kid. Glad they made up though. Tamanaha sure is bringing quite the liveliness to the narrative. Pretty catchy ending theme. |

| Okay now we have that gal character introduced to start the season, good start |
 |
| Poor sensei almost made it through her first day with them. Almost... :D |
 |
| ah we are so backkk |
| The pwoer couple is finally back, I missed them so much, Raidou's imagination is still as wild as ever, new character Riku is another cutie, she is just a bit too passionate and love that she is voiced by Touyama Nao, the cherry on top is an ED by shallm, I didn't like the OP tho. |
| I was asking myself when did they go out? I watched the S1 intently, and I can't remember... lmao P.S. Touyama, became a Gyaru... AAHHH?!! (her voice is actually one) Anyway, the OP is okay, but I like the ED more. IT'S WAY BETTER... imo  |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| He's back in full force hahaha, this is top-tier comedy. It's great that nothing's changed — Raidou still has his crazy thoughts, the teacher is still a watchdog who’s into both of them, and Aharen is the same quirky girl. So the new gal was already friends with Aharen before, and by some twist of fate, they ended up meeting again. An awesome return that keeps the original vibe. |
| Great 1st episode for season 2. Monday's just got better with this to relax and laugh with. |
| I know last season had some really sweet and tender moments. I wasn't expecting it to get that way so soon in this season. Also I love how Tamanaha is so self-conscious and considerate for a Gyaru |
| It's been a long time since I watched the first season and also completed the manga, but I'm so glad that it's finally back. |
 |
| If Kiniro Mosaic taught us anything, it's that Nao-chan is perfect for bubbly blonde roles. |
| YEAHHH SEASON 2 - ready for all the goofs haha |
 |
| I didn't know how much I missed this series until I watched the episode. That was hilarious! Raidou's wild imagination, Aharen and Raidou's shenanigans, sensei trying not to die from blood loss and of course the new gyaru girl voiced by Nao Touyama <3. Looking forward to more! |
