In the visually pleasing trailer, we saw glimpses of Nene Yashiro, a high school student, and “Hanako-san of the Toilet,” the summoned spirit. The previous season ended after Hanako saved Nene from the fish and later revealed his past to her. As a result, Nene was no longer afraid of him.

It is anticipated that the bond between Nene and Hanako will grow stronger in the second season, with new characters joining their mischievous and humorous adventures.

It is unclear whether there will be any changes to the production house or staff for the second season, but the previous team is anticipated to continue with the franchise. The same voice cast of the last season will continue their outstanding work in bringing the anime to life.

The journey into the paranormal will continue, promising a double delight for those captivated by this mesmerising tale.
