The debut season of My Dress-Up Darling just concluded in the final week of March 2022. Soon after, fans began to search for the release and renewal details of the second season!
So, is My Dress-Up Darling Season 2 coming back anytime soon? What is the renewal status? Here’s everything you need to know about it.
My Dress-Up Darling Season 2: Will it be Renewed Or Not?
After the release of the final episode, the makers did not make any revelations as to whether season 2 might air or not. That said, the show isn’t renewed yet.
But fans don’t have to stew this early. Y’all did a pretty great job in letting the makers know how dearly you loved the show. So, Aniplex and CloverWorks will let us know about the renewal soon enough.
My Dress-Up Darling Season 2: Will It Come Back?
Though neither the producers nor the staff of the anime has revealed anything about the return of the series, the renewal is not a difficult decision for them.
In terms of both popularity and critics-wise, the overall performance of the anime was good enough. It has been rated 8.4 stars out of 10 on IMDb.
The MAL rating of the show is even better with 227k users rating it higher than 8.47 stars. It is also notable that Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru is a very new series. Many shows older than that don’t tend to get even a hundred thousand user ratings.
Adding to this success is the fact that My Dress-Up Darling dethroned Attack On Titan Final Season on two occasions in the weekly charts. Thus, the return of the second edition will definitely take place. We will keep you posted if we receive more updates. Stay tuned!
My Dress-Up Darling season 2: Is There Enough Source Material to Renew The Show?
Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru is based on Shinichi Fukuda’s manga of the same name. First published in January 2018, the manga has released a total of 74 chapters (March 2022), compiled into nine volumes.
The release is monthly leading to the slow pace of the text. So, the first season’s twelve episodes cover the first 39 chapters of the manga. This implies that Season 1 covers half the manga already.
That said, there’s still enough source material to cover the second edition of My Dress-Up Darling. Starting with Chapter 40, CloverWorks can certainly continue the story of Gojo dressing up as his favorite person. And until the production announcement, the manga will get more chapters for an adaptation. This again solidifies the chances of renewal of season 2!
My Dress Up Darling Season 2 Release Date
The first episode of the first season of My Dress-Up Darling aired more than a year ago. Everything went rather well until the very end, and the show has amassed a large international fan base and developed a craze.
