I looked forward to watching [the TV anime show] every week. The first season ended in a very tough spot, but I’m sure the second season will be even more exciting with uncovering various mysteries and the older generation missing.
And what’s going to happen to Setsuna?
In related news, Good Smile Company recently revealed figures for Towa, Setsuna, and Moroha. Pre-orders are open now, and the figures will release in July 2021.
