Fans of romance anime have much to anticipate, as one notable series is finally set to return for its second season after a significant delay. The anime, Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian, has shared a new visual offering a glimpse into the upcoming episodes.

Season 2 is now officially slated for a 2027 launch. While the specific release date remains unannounced, this confirmation provides a solid timeline for eager viewers. The production studio behind the series, Doga Kobo, is known for delivering high-quality anime productions.

Staff Changes Announced for Season 2

The production team for the new season will see some key changes in leadership roles. Hiroshi Haraguchi is stepping in to direct the series, taking over from Ryota Itoh, who directed the first season.

Furthermore, Yuka Yamada will assume the role of scriptwriter, also succeeding Itoh in that capacity. Yuhei Murota, however, is confirmed to be returning to handle the character designs for the continuation of the series.

Synopsis and Streaming Details

The series centers on the dynamic between Alisa and the main protagonist, Masachika. Alisa frequently teases Masachika by confessing her romantic feelings out loud in Russian, believing he cannot understand her native language.

The twist is that Masachika fully comprehends every word she says. He must then navigate their interactions while pretending not to know her true feelings, creating an engaging push-and-pull narrative.

For those looking to catch up or rewatch the first season, the series is currently available for streaming on Crunchyroll. Viewers can access the show with both Japanese and English language audio options.
