The announcement came after the final episode of Season 1.
Coming-of-age romance anime Anyway, I’m Falling in Love With You (Dose, Koishite Shimaunda), or more colloquially known as Koishima, has announced that a second season is now in production, right after the final episode of the first season, titled “Neverending Dream” (Owaranai Yume) aired.
The announcement, which was also posted to the anime’s official X (formerly Twitter) account, included a teaser promotional video commemorating the news.
Koishima continues the romance in Season 2
The shoujo anime tells the story of Mizuha, and the delicate, bittersweet balance between friendship and love through her relationships with her four childhood boy friends.
The anime is based on the manga of the same name by Haruka Mitsui, which has been serialised in Kodansha’s Nakayoshi magazine since 2020, with a total of 10 tankobon volumes released since January 2025.
Staff for Season 2 is yet to be confirmed, but given that the announcement for its production occurred right after the final episode of Season 1, it’s safe to assume that the staff listed for the anime are set to continue their roles. Typhoon Graphics is once again producing the series.
The voice actors included in the first season are also reprising their roles, those being:
- Kizuki Hazawa: Kazuki Ura
- Mizuho Nishino: Sakura Shinfuku
- Shin Kashiwagi: Sion Yoshitaka
- Airu Izumi: Shoya Chiba
- Shugo Hoshikawa: Satoshi Inomata
- Ryosuke Saito: Yuto Uemura
- Togo Hoshikawa: Yuichiro Umehara
- Manami Shiraishi: Kaori Nazuka
Season 1 is available to stream on Crunchyroll, and describes the story as:
It's July 1, 2020. Mizuha, a high school second-year, is having the worst seventeenth birthday ever. She's missing her chance to get close to the older student she admires, and her parents didn't even remember that it's her birthday. Worst of all, there's a new and unknown infectious disease making the rounds, so all her club tournaments and school trips have been canceled.
She's convinced that she'll never have the dazzling youth that she's always dreamed of... but then her childhood friend, Kizuki, suddenly declares himself a candidate to be her boyfriend.
This is a school youth story about four childhood friends who grew up like family, one being the heroine, Nishino Mizuha, and the four boys she grew up with whom she sees as family.
