The official website of the Ao Ashi (Aoashi) television anime series revealed on Saturday five additional cast, new key visual (pictured), and theme song artists for the second cours. The series premiered on April 9 at 6:25 p.m. on NHK E-Tele.

Cast
Akinori Kaneda: Takuya Eguchi (Spy x Family)
Junnosuke Nakano: Koutarou Nishiyama (Re-Main)
Chiaki Mutou: Yuuki Ono (Beastars)
Kouji Satake: Tomoaki Maeno (Hataraku Saibou)
Miyako Tachibana: Kei Shindou (Boku no Hero Academia)

Musical unit Superfly (Promare) is performing the second cours' opening "Presence." J-rock band Kami wa Saikoro wo Furanai (World Trigger 2nd Season) will perform the ending theme "Color Lily no Koibumi."

Akira Satou (Release the Spyce) is directing the anime at Production I.G and Masahiro Yokotani (Free!) is handling the series composition. Masaru Yokoyama (Taisou Zamurai) is composing the music.

Manabu Nakatake (Sket Dance), Toshie Kawamura (Lord of Vermilion: Guren no Ou), Asuka Yamaguchi (The God of High School sub-character design), and Saki Hasegawa (Shin Chuuka Ichiban!) are designing the characters.

The series adapts Yuugo Kobayashi's sports manga, which is based on Naohiko Ueno's original draft and began serializing in Big Comic Spirits in January 2015. Shogakukan shipped the 28th volume on May 30.

Really cool visual! I am enjoying the show quite a bit, looking forward to see what second half has to offer. Also can't wait to see and hear new opening and ending, first ones were really good.

The first opening by Alexandros was really good. I have high hopes for the second opening.
This was probably THE anime I was looking most forward to in spring season. Incredibly happy about it's continuation in summer season.

The first opening was such a banger idk how they'll top it. It can have better visuals though. Honestly, on of the best and most underrated shows of this season

I know right! They are adapting around 4.6 chapters per episode. That means the first season will adapt around 110 chapters. The manga currently has 290+ chapters. Fingers crossed.
