TONIKAWA: Over The Moon For You - Season 2

Kenjiró Hata is back with another advertisement for a happy marriage, essentially the same as the first season, maybe even more sterilely romantic. It's almost amusing and strange to see how the main couple gradually get to know each other but still keep acting like teenagers experiencing their first love. But if you want to learn how to achieve happiness in marriage, the recipe is still there - just be attentive, observant, sincere... Want to know more? The series might even teach you how to hug correctly! Plus, it introduces a new couple, showing you how to start a relationship (and that you don't need to almost get run over to meet your soulmate). The problem is that besides the romance, there is nothing else here. The series lacks juice, something interesting, instead of just watching the cute main couple. The hints that there might be a big secret around Tsukasa don't really do it for me. There was only one comedic scene in the series, which I'm used to from Hata's Hayate. It is significantly less compared to the first season, and humor would really benefit this series to spice it up. It certainly didn't harm the first season. So, it's more romantic, cuter, less comedic, with a subtle hint of some future drama, which I already know won't turn into the next Your Lie in April. Is it better than the first season? I don't think so, but it's still okay, so I give it a 6/10. (24/06/2023)
