Season 2 of My Dress-Up Darling is Coming: Marin’s New Cosplay and Everything You Need to Know
Marin’s new cosplay and more cast members revealed in My Dress-Up Darling Season 2’s latest episode.
After episode four aired in Japan, My Dress-Up Darling Season 2 went ahead and dropped one new key visual on the anime’s official page. That image was showing Marin Kitagawa as she started preparing for her another cosplay, which is from some show inside the story world called The Student Council President is the No. 1 Host.
This anime is still from Shinichi Fukuda's manga, and it mixes normal school life and emotional drama, mostly focusing on cosplay. The key visual not just shows costume but also tells a bit about how Marin and Wakana’s story is going ahead in this second season.
Rei Kogami Arc Got Some New Faces Coming
With this visual, they also bring news of extra characters joining the current arc in the story. This part, called the Rei Kogami Arc, is starting to bring new types of interaction and characters. These new ones were announced with their voice actors too: Murakami, by Keito Hironiwa; Rei Kogami, by Hinaki Yano; Koyomi Mishima, by Mayumi Tsukishima; Tokiko Tsumugi, by Yuko Kaida
These new characters are supposed to bring more story development. Especially the Rei Kogami character, who might be very important for this arc. More scenes and character drama are probably coming from this.

Making Of the Anime and Watching Options
Season two is being directed by Keisuke Shinohara, who also worked on BLACKFOX before. Animation is handled again by CloverWorks Studio. Yoriko Tomita is doing the story composition, and Kazumasa Ishida is on character design again. Music is by Takeshi Nakatsuka, who was also on The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as a Typical Nobody.
The manga, created by Shinichi Fukuda, was completed in March 2025 and consisted of 14 volumes since its inception in 2018. The anime keeps that feel from manga, with a mix of love story, cosplay passion, and character journey.
You can still watch the first season on Crunchyroll if you haven't seen it yet. The second season is now ongoing, and more things will happen as new episodes air.
