Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun’s second season has not received as much attention as the people working on it would have liked, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a quality series. The new season of Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun started airing in January 2025 and was overshadowed by Solo Leveling, Sakamoto Days, and The Apothecary Diaries. However, the anime has gone about its business quietly and released seven episodes.
To increase the excitement of fans for the remainder of the season, Toilet-Bound Hanako-kun released a new trailer for the anime, focusing on the main characters.

Toilet-bound Hanako-kun Deserves More Praise
Toilet-bound Hanako-kun is based on the manga of the same name written by Iro and illustrated by Aida. It began serialization in the Monthly GFantasy magazine in June 2014. So far, it has released 20 volumes and more are likely to follow. Toilet-bound Hanako-kun’s sales numbers are rather impressive. According to reports, it has sold more than 8 million copies, which is unquestionably a solid return.
Toilet-bound Hanako-kun’s story might feel simple at first, but with every passing chapter, it becomes more layered. The characters in the manga are handled well, especially the main characters, whose complex backstories make them more appealing to the readers. Toilet-bound Hanako-kun may not have a lot of action scenes, but its story and characters more than make up for it.
