The verdict
Senpai’s take
SequelsMust watchSummer 2025This second TV season continues Sakuta and Mai helping girls with puberty-linked supernatural problems. It excels at tight teen drama, clever mysteries, unconventional romance, comedy, melodrama and social commentary. It belongs in the top echelon of light novel anime with Haruhi, Monogatari, Apothecary Diaries and Re:Zero. Catching up is strongly recommended, though the last two movies are only on overpriced Blu-rays.
