The second season of A Couple of Cuckoos is officially around the corner, and fans of the romantic comedy now have a new reason to get excited. A vibrant new key visual has been unveiled, putting the spotlight on two fan favorite heroines, Erika Amano and Ai Mochizuki. With bright colors, expressive detail, and the emotional energy fans have come to love, the artwork perfectly sets the tone for the drama, charm, and chaos that await.
The series is all set to make its return on July 8, 2025, as part of Japan’s summer anime lineup. International audiences need not worry about missing out, as Crunchyroll has confirmed that it will simulcast the new season, allowing global fans to stay in step with the latest episodes. This continuity in international streaming is a major win for viewers who followed the first season and are now eager to see what twists lie ahead in Nagi Umino’s increasingly tangled love story.
Originally created by Miki Yoshikawa, A Couple of Cuckoos began as a manga serialized in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine. The manga’s quirky setup and lively romantic tension quickly made it a favorite among rom com readers. Its anime adaptation captured the same playful spirit, combining school life, family drama, and unexpected romance with a sharp sense of humor.
Season two is being directed by Masakazu Hishida at Studio Okuruto Noboru, known for their eye catching animation and dynamic pacing. The character designs by Kyoko Kon remain faithful to the manga, emphasizing expressive emotions and subtle moments of chemistry. Complementing the visuals is the music of Rei Ishizuka, whose compositions enhance both the comedy and emotional depth of the show.
The plot continues to follow Nagi, a top student who learns that he was accidentally switched at birth. When he meets Erika, a bold and unpredictable social media star, the two are thrown into a series of chaotic events involving arranged marriage plans, personal goals, and the tangled emotions of youth. Erika’s strong personality contrasts with Nagi’s calm and intelligent demeanor, but it is this tension that gives the story its spark. Adding to the complexity is Ai Mochizuki, another key figure in Nagi’s orbit, whose role grows more important in the upcoming season.
As the characters juggle feelings, family expectations, and school rivalries, season two promises to deepen the relationships while maintaining the lighthearted and unpredictable vibe that made the first season so beloved. With new conflicts and growing romantic entanglements, the next chapter of A Couple of Cuckoos seems set to deliver heartfelt surprises along with its usual dose of comedy.
The freshly released key visual offers a first glimpse into that emotional world, giving fans a reason to mark their calendars. With Erika and Ai taking center stage in the new artwork, viewers can expect their arcs to gain even more narrative weight this season.
