The show follows Mizuto Irido and Yume Ayai, two compatible middle schoolers whose romance comes to an abrupt end just after their graduation. While they grow apart in the following years, in a strange twist of fate the former couple gets reunited as step-siblings and are forced to live under the same roof. Unfortunately, their past feelings which have been dormant until now are rekindled and the duo finds themselves in a spot. The awkward, entertaining, and romantic story of Mizuto and Yume has garnered mixed reviews from critics.
Will My Stepmom’s Daughter Is My Ex Season 2 Happen?
‘My Stepmom’s Daughter Is My Ex’ season 1 was released on July 6, 2022 and ended its long run over three months later on September 21, 2022. The first installment of the rom-com series comprises twelve episodes, each with an average watch time of 23 minutes.
If you are curious about the second season of the anime, then you may have to wait for some time. It has not been renewed as of now by Studio Project No.9 or any other organization involved in its production or distribution. However, the anime release has significantly boosted light novel sales domestically. Furthermore, the first installment of the show covers only four out of nine volumes of Kyousuke Kamishiro’s work. So, the creators have more than enough material for another installment of the series.
Unfortunately, the online ratings for the show have not been very promising so far. Therefore, the future of anime heavily depends on domestic performance. While the sales of the light novel have increased it would be interesting to see how the DVD Blu-Ray sales pan out. Assuming things unfold favorably, ‘My Stepmom’s Daughter Is My Ex’ season 2 will premiere sometime in 2025 or 2026.
