Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki season 2 release date announced for January 2024
The promotional video released on December 8, 2023, announced that Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki season 2 is scheduled for release in January 2024. The second season comes three years after the first season premiered in January 2021 and will be available for streaming on Crunchyroll for international audiences. The story follows Tomozaki Fumiya, an expert gamer and social outcast whose success in the online game Attack Families doesn't help him navigate the real world of high school, where there are no shortcuts or cheat codes.
In a surprising turn of events, he discovers that Aoi Hinami, known as the "perfect student," is only second to him in the game. Recognizing her dedication and hard work, she offers to assist him in improving his life. In return, he may be able to help her with some underlying issues of her own.
Season 2 of Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki will see the return of the original cast, including Ikumi Hasegawa as the class clown Miami Nanami (Mimimi), Gen Sato as the main character Fumiya Tomozaki, and Hisako Kanemoto as the main heroine Aoi Hinami.
A sleeper hit returns
Many were surprised when Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki received a season 2, as the anime was initially overlooked in favor of other romantic comedies like The Quintessential Quintuplets and Horimiya. Despite this, the original light novels consistently ranked in the top 10 for light novel rankings in the Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! guide book from 2017 through 2019. The English release began in May 2016, with the final stage set for March 2023.
The anime's unexpected popularity can be attributed to Tomokazi consistently ranking in the top 10 male characters from Crunchyroll's viewer polls for several months in 2021, reaching as high as number 3. Many viewers also find the series relatable to shut-ins and overachievers alike. Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki season 2 is scheduled to debut on January 3, 2024, on Crunchyroll for international audiences and on the AT-X, Tokyo MX, and BS11 channels in Japan, although schedules are subject to change pending further announcements.
Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z netizen, I'm thrilled about the announcement of Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki Season 2! The first season was a sleeper hit that resonated with me and many others. The relatable characters and heartwarming story about self-improvement and friendship made it a standout in the romantic comedy genre. I can't wait to see where the story goes next and how Tomozaki and Aoi's relationship develops. The wait until January 2024 feels like an eternity, but I know it will be worth it.
I also appreciate that the anime is staying true to the original light novels, which have consistently ranked highly in popularity polls. It's great to see that the series is getting the recognition it deserves. The fact that it was initially overlooked in favor of other romantic comedies only makes its success even more impressive. I'm excited to see how the anime continues to grow its fanbase and become even more popular in the coming months.
