The Young Jump and Ultra Jump joint booth at Jump Festa 2020 revealed two additional cast and the first promotional video for the second season of Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen (Kaguya-sama: Love is War) television anime on Sunday. The new season, Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai? Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen, will premiere in April 2020. The first season will have a rerun on Tokyo MX, BS11, Gunma TV, and Tochigi TV beginning on January 9 at 12:30 a.m.

Voice actresses Miyu Tomita (Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai, Tonari no Kyuuketsuki-san) and Rina Hidaka (Ryuuou no Oshigoto!, Inu x Boku SS) will play the new characters Miko Iino and Kobachi Osaragi—members of the public moral committee—respectively.

Production staff returning at A-1 Pictures include director Shinichi Omata (Mamoru Hatakeyama), series composer Yasuhiro Nakanishi, character designer Yuuko Yahiro, and music composer Kei Haneoka. The four main voice cast will also reprise their character roles.

Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai adapts Aka Akasaka's romantic comedy manga, which debuted in Miracle Jump in May 2015 and subsequently switched to Young Jump the following March. Shueisha shipped the 16th volume on September 19. The manga has a cumulative 8.5 million copies of its volumes in print.

The 12-episode first anime season produced by A-1 Pictures aired in Winter 2019, roughly adapting the first five volumes. Aniplex of America licensed the anime and streamed it on Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Hulu. VIZ Media licensed the manga in English in February 2018 and released the 11th volume on November 5. The 12th volume will go on sale on January 7, 2020.

I just finished kaguya-sama, i'm happy there's another season because the end wasn't really "complete".

I mean it was only 45 chapters out of 170+ still ongoing so I wouldnt expect a complete show for a while, a metric fuck ton of stuff starts actually happening from here on out but it very much is gonna be a long runner for a few more years at least.

iino's voice really fit imo, cant wait to see her banter with ishigami

We need the chapter of them alone in the club room with her headphones not fully connected, its one of the best ones.

ishigami's future wife, her voices so cute

No she is not! Mattaku mo, where do you get such an absurd idea from?! She despises Ishii as much as Ishii despises her. They will take 32 seconds to file a divorce within 7 minutes and 12 seconds after exchanging rings. It will take 7 minutes and 12 seconds because the first 6 minutes and 40 seconds will be spent on hitting each other with rolled papers* on the head after messing up their kiss of vow!

*time taken to grab and roll to weaponize the papers included. ;)

Cannot agree more about the voice though. :P

Expecting more of the gold interactions from this plus the cameos of a bunch of the new characters!

Spring 2020 lineup is absolutely fab, on another note. Can't bloody wait!
