The year 2025 will be nothing short of iconic for rom-com lovers. This is especially true for most upcoming anime, especiallySkip and Loafer. Based on Misaki Takamatsu’s manga, the anime is more than impressive.
It isn’t your bog-standard romance series, especially with its treatment of relationships. While most people assume it to be a shojo series, it is quite the opposite. After a successful first season, the anime is making a comeback with its second season. But there’s more to it.
The coming year is going to be truly eventful in terms of most romance anime. With most series getting their second season, fans cannot help but deem it the “Year of romcoms”.
Skip and Loafer announces Season 2
Skip and Loaferisn’t a run-of-the-mill seinen anime. Written by Misaki Takamatsu, the series highlights Mitsumi’s journey as she starts high school. It is a coming-of-age story of a 15-year-old girl who follows her pursuits and goals.
Unlike most romance stories, it focuses on her relationship with others. Her classmates and her friends play an important role in her understanding of the world. Despite her humble beginnings, she doesn’t shy away from dreaming big.
Furthermore, Tomoyo Kurosawabreathes life into Mitsumi’s characterthrough her impeccable voice acting. From her awkwardness to her high-spirited nature, Kurosawa blends these intricacies perfectly through her tone and expression.
Interestingly, her larger-than-life goals and ambitions are what make her relatable. The familiarity is attributed to her awkward yet high-spirited nature. And while the first season gained positive traction, it’s back with a bang with the second season.
