From 2020, one captivatingly distinctive paranormal television series has made its long-awaited return after a nearly five-year hiatus, with its second season now airing. Known as Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun, this series, derived from the original manga by authors Aidaro, resumes the escapades of Hanako and Nene as they navigate encounters with legendary school ghosts from Japanese folklore. The suspense left by the ending of Season 1 had fans on the edge of their seats, and the new trailer promises an upgrade in animation quality and hints at significant plot developments from the manga’s Clock Keepers and Picture Perfect storylines. Additionally, it seems that the Young Exorcist story arc, which originally should have been featured in Season 1, may finally be adapted in this new season.

Similar to the thrilling, otherworldly anime “Dandadan”, “Toilet-Bound Hanako-Kun” offers a fresh perspective on traditional Japanese folklore by tailoring these tales to fit its distinctive setting and narrative. The story largely revolves around Nene Yashiro, a first-year high school student who yearns for her crush to reciprocate her feelings.

Fearing transformation into a literal fish, Nene strikes a bargain with the spectral entity Hanako to avoid this fate – provided she doesn’t immerse herself in water. To compensate him, Nene is compelled to assist Hanako and disseminate rumors and tales about various supernatural entities dwelling within the school.
