Studio: Kyoto Animation
Starring: Jun Fukuyama, Maaya Uchida, Chinatsu Akasaki
Episodes: 12

Synopsis:
The new school year starts and circumstances lead to Rikka moving in with Yuuta.

Impressions:
The previous season had such a solid conclusion that I really didn't think a second season was necessary and in the end, I still feel that way. I don't mind spending more time with the characters and I think this is well-made overall, but not as impactful as the first season. Because much of the conflict was resolved, introducing Shichimiya as a rival character feels shoehorned in and though the character gets developed decently and does work fairly well as a foil for Rikka, I wasn't entirely satisfied with it as one of the main plotlines for the season. I would still say this is worth watching, but do lower your expectations a bit going in.
