Chitose-kun wa Ramune Bin no Naka Anime Part 2 Arriving in 2026

Great news has arrived from the camp of Chitose-kun wa Ramune Bin no Naka (Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle), one of the most notable productions in the youth and romantic comedy genre in recent years. Following the exciting final episodes of the series' first part, which aired on Tuesday, March 31, 2026, the production team officially announced that the second part of the anime will meet the audience within the year 2026. The first part, consisting of 13 episodes, provided fans with an unforgettable season finale, especially with the consecutive release of its final three episodes (11-13).
The original light novel series, written by Hiromu and illustrated by raemz, has literally become a phenomenon in Japan. The series made history by ranking first in the prestigious Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! (This Light Novel Is Amazing!) list for two consecutive years in 2021 and 2022. Breaking the genre's usual "lonely and outcast" hero clichés, the story focuses on Saku Chitose, the most popular student at school who sits at the top of the social hierarchy. The depth behind Saku's seemingly perfect life and his complex relationships with his friend group stand out as the biggest features that distinguish the series from its peers.
The anime's production process has been a journey requiring quite a bit of patience from fans. Produced by the renowned studio feel., the series first began airing in October 2025 but experienced delays starting from episode 6 due to issues in the production schedule. The first part, which was initially expected to be completed in December, was able to reach the audience at the end of March 2026 following these postponements. In the series, where Yuji Tokuno sits in the director's chair, the fact that the original author Hiromu is personally involved in the screenwriting team ensures that the story is faithfully adapted to the screen.
The series, which features talented names such as Shogo Sakata (Saku Chitose), Manaka Iwami (Yuko Hiiragi), and Hina Yomiya (Yua Uchida) in its voice cast, will cover the events following the Asuka Nishino arc in its second part to be released in 2026. Considering the rich material that reaches up to the 9th volume of the light novel series, the new episodes are expected to have a much more dramatic and emotional atmosphere. If you are tired of classic romantic comedies and want to watch social dynamics from a different perspective, mark this big appointment in 2026 on your calendar now!
