The second season of the anime Skip and Loafer is confirmed. The first season will be rebroadcast on NHK E-Tele.
PAWORKS will continue to handle animation production, as with the first season. Misaki Takamatsu, the original author, has also commented on the announcement for the second season.
Skip and Loafer is a popular manga by Misaki Takamatsu.
“Skip and Loafer” is a manga serialized in Kodansha’s “Monthly Afternoon.”
The original author is Misaki Takamatsu. The story is set in Tsubame Nishi High School, a prestigious school in Tokyo. The protagonist is Mitsumi Iwakura, a girl who moves to Tokyo to attend high school. The story is about Mitsumi, earnest and cheerful at heart, growing up with her unique classmates who have various worries.
The first season of the TV anime was broadcast on TOKYO MX and other stations from April to June 2023 and gained popularity. In addition, because the protagonist’s hometown is modeled after the area from Suzu City to Noto Town in Ishikawa Prefecture, the series has been actively working to support the Noto Peninsula earthquake that occurred on January 1st.
In February, all first-season episodes were streamed on YouTube, and all profits from the stream were donated to Ishikawa Prefecture. In addition, after consulting with the editorial department of the magazine Monthly Afternoon, the series announced a donation of 10 million yen.
A giveaway campaign has begun to celebrate the production of the second season. The first season will be rebroadcast on NHK Educational TV.
To commemorate the production of the second season of the TV anime, a campaign will be held in which 50 people will be chosen by lottery to receive a replica mini colored paper. To participate, follow the anime’s official X account and repost the target post.
Applications will be accepted until Friday, December 27th. In addition, it has been decided that the first season will be rebroadcast on NHK Educational TV from 5:00 PM on Sunday, January 5th, 2025, and then broadcast every Sunday at 5:00 PM.
