Season 2 picks up right from that cliffhanger on April 3, continuing Haruka’s growth as he learns what real strength looks like. Both seasons are available on Crunchyroll, making it easy for newcomers to binge and catch up before diving into the new episodes.

The new season also introduces a socially awkward transfer student, Riku Tamaha, which should spice up the dynamic between Aharen and Raido. Season 1 is streaming on Crunchyroll, and Season 2 will be released there as well.
