Hit Anime 'Watari-kun's ****** Is About to Collapse' Unleashes Part 2 Theme Songs, Confirms October 3 Premiere

Anime enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting the second part of the highly acclaimed series, 'Watari-kun's ****** Is About to Collapse,' which is set to premiere on October 3, 2025. This upcoming release will continue the enthralling 26-episode run, promising deeper narrative exploration and character development. To heighten anticipation, a brand-new promotional video has been unveiled, offering fans a captivating preview of the new arc and, notably, revealing the compelling new theme songs that will accompany it.

Produced by Staple Entertainment, the series first captivated audiences in July 2025. It delves into the poignant life of Naoto Watari, who, following the profound loss of his parents, shoulders the significant responsibility of caring for his younger sister, Suzu. The delicate balance of their existence is dramatically disrupted by the re-emergence of Satsuki, a childhood friend whose presence now hints at a more complex, potentially adversarial dynamic. This intricate narrative masterfully weaves together the comforting familiarity of slice-of-life moments and the lighthearted charm of romantic comedy with unexpectedly darker, suspenseful undertones. It is this unique blend of heartfelt character development, the universal experience of coming-of-age, and dramatic tension that has firmly established 'Watari-kun's ****** Is About to Collapse' as a standout in the seinen demographic.

The newly unveiled promotional video spotlights two powerful musical additions that are poised to enrich the series' evocative atmosphere. The opening theme, "Yuurei ni Naritai" (I Want to be a Ghost), is delivered with poignant artistry by Yuika. Complementing this is the closing theme, "Ai Ai Ai Ai Ai" (Love Love Love Love Love), performed by the distinctive Pedro. These tracks are set to build upon the already acclaimed soundtrack of the first cour, further enhancing the emotional landscape of the story.

Under the skilled direction of Takashi Naoya, with Tatsuya Takahashi and Tetsuya Yamada crafting the compelling scripts, and Shōko Yasuda leading character design and chief animation, the production promises to maintain its high visual and narrative quality. 'Watari-kun's ****** Is About to Collapse' continues to draw viewers into its compelling world, available on Tokyo MX and streaming globally on Crunchyroll. This much-awaited second part promises heightened narrative stakes and deeper character exploration, all underscored by its captivating new musical score.
