My Dress Up Darling Season 2: Release Date, Schedule & Where To Watch
If you’ve missed seeing Wakana and Marin’s sweet, slightly awkward adventures, good news — My Dress Up Darling season 2 is ready to pick up right where it left off. Studio CloverWorks is back, Keisuke Shinohara is still at the helm, and the next chapter of this unlikely pair’s friendship (and maybe more) kicks off 25th July 2025.
Fans of the first season know exactly why this series hit so many hearts. It’s soft, funny, a bit blush-worthy, and full of real warmth between two characters who never should have crossed paths but did anyway. If you’re counting down the days until Wakana and Marin are back, here’s what you should know right now.
When Do New Episodes Drop For Season 2?
First up — the big question. When can you actually watch new episodes? The official X account confirmed the premiere date is locked for 25th July 2025. That’s a Friday, which probably means Fridays will be our weekly check-in with this sweet, sewing-filled romance.
Exact drop times are still under wraps. Some fans expect a midnight Japan release, with Crunchyroll timing their international drop a few hours later. But nothing’s official yet, so it’s worth keeping an eye out once the first week arrives.
How Many Episodes Are Coming This Season?
Right now, there’s no official word on a final count. But if you look at season one, it wrapped at 12 episodes — a neat, classic anime cour length. So it’s fair to guess season two will run the same. If it does, fans can expect Marin and Wakana’s story to stretch from late July all the way into early October.
Here’s what the speculative drop might look like if it follows the usual pattern:
- Episode 1 – 25th July 2025
- Episode 2 – 1st August 2025
- Episode 3 – 8th August 2025
- Episode 4 – 15th August 2025
- Episode 5 – 22nd August 2025
- Episode 6 – 29th August 2025
- Episode 7 – 5th September 2025
- Episode 8 – 12th September 2025
- Episode 9 – 19th September 2025
- Episode 10 – 26th September 2025
- Episode 11 – 3rd October 2025
- Episode 12 – 10th October 2025
If the studio decides to expand or shorten that, we’ll find out soon enough.
Where Can You Watch Season 2?
Season 2 will stream on Crunchyroll from day one. That’s your main home if you want to watch weekly drops as they land. If you’re behind, you can catch up on season one too — it’s on Crunchyroll, Netflix, and even Amazon Prime in some regions.
So if you haven’t seen how Wakana’s hidden doll-making passion collided with Marin’s loud cosplay dreams, there’s plenty of time to binge before 25th July shows up.
What’s Happening With Wakana And Marin Now?
The core of My Dress Up Darling never really changes. It’s about Wakana, a quiet high school boy carrying a love for traditional hina dolls he keeps hidden from his classmates. He never felt normal enough to share that side of himself. It left him isolated and convinced he’d be alone with his hobby forever.
Marin is everything he’s not — outgoing, popular, fearless about showing what she loves. Underneath all the makeup and energy, though, she hides her own secret: her passion for anime and cosplay.
When Marin stumbles on Wakana sewing tiny doll clothes after school, she doesn’t laugh or gossip. She asks him for help. She wants to bring her cosplay dreams to life, but she’s all thumbs with a needle. Wakana, awkward but talented, becomes her secret weapon.
Season 1 showed them figuring each other out. The sewing room turned into their safe place, where they both got to be fully themselves. Season 2 promises more cosplay projects, more flustered glances, more “did they just almost confess?” moments. And maybe — just maybe — Wakana might open up enough to realise that sharing your passion doesn’t make you weird. It makes you whole.
If you’re in the mood for a show that’s equal parts romantic, silly, and warm enough to make you grin like an idiot, get ready for July. And maybe learn a little sewing yourself — Marin might need your help next.
