Meeting The Parents
Miyo and Kiyoka Are Introduced To Each Other’s Family
In the first season of My Happy Marriage, Miyo Saitori is born into a prestigious magical family, although she does not possess any magical powers. Because of this, she spent a number of years dealing with abuse from her stepmother after her mother passed away, until she finally became engaged to Kiyoka Kudo. However, his past seems to bring up a lot of questions for Miyo, as he had been engaged before, only for each fiancée to run away in fear. However, Miyo soon realizes that everything is not as bad as it seems as she gets to know Kiyoka better.
In the second season being released in January 2025, a new trailer shows Miyo awakening from a distressing dream about Kiyoka, leading her to realize that she possesses a dream-sight ability, and is the only one who holds this power in the world.

While Miyo will struggle at first with her new life and abilities, she will have Kiyoka at her side along the way to give her support. She is even willing to risk her life if it means protecting her husband and being able to use her ability for him. At the end of the preview, fans will also notice a man claiming to be Miyo’s father arriving on the scene in an ominous way, also known as Naoshi Usui, the leader of the Gifted Communion.
