As such, this text shall be up to date over time with information, rumors, and evaluation. Meanwhile, let’s delve down into what is thought for sure.
Crunchyroll’s Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro Season 2 English dub launch date
The first season of Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro was initially streaming solely with English subtitles on Crunchyroll, VRV, and Netflix Japan (not Netflix U.S.).
In late October 2021, Crunchyroll introduced that the Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro English dub launch date is scheduled for January 11, 2021.
Crunchyroll’s Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro English dub launch date hasn’t been introduced but. Typically, Crunchyroll has launched the dubbed model 2 or 3 weeks after the premiere, so it’s more likely to be in late January 2023.
Why the Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san Season 2 launch date is in January 2023
As of November 25, 2022, Studio Telecom Animation Film and King Records has formally confirmed the precise Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro Season 2 launch date to be on January 7, 2023.

The Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro evaluations from followers have simply been common. While some followers discover the comedic antics to be hilarious because of the voice-acting and dynamic facial expressions, others consider Nagatoro’s habits as a sadistic kohai crosses the road from teasing into abusive bullying and thus don’t discover any humor in any respect within the TV present.
The central theme of bullying has induced the Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro anime to be both hit and miss with anime followers. Pic credit score: A-10
There is a cause why the manga sequence’s unofficial English title is Please Don’t Bully Me, Nagatoro-san. Arguably, those that rage stop early on did so earlier than they may see the evolving dynamic.
Over the course of the season, Senpai and Nagatoro each develop as characters, with Senpai slowly rising a backbone together with conversational abilities. Nagatoro is greater than a bully and exhibits sudden depth as an individual.
Still, all reviewers agree that the anime’s story is unquestionably a singular method to a highschool romance dynamic.
It’s too early to say whether or not the early episodes scared off too many for the anime to search out monetary success with Blu-Ray/DVD gross sales and streaming numbers.
When BD Volume 1 got here out it didn’t even register on the Oricon gross sales charts! When the Volume 2 BD launched in late June 2021, it bought solely 647 in its first week. However, the anime’s first season was usually within the high 5 on Crunchyroll’s in style anime checklist.
The good streaming numbers are most likely why the anime manufacturing committee had Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro Season 2 renewed. The solely drawback on the time was the quantity of supply materials accessible for a sequel, however that was not a difficulty by 2022.
The studio change rumor makes good sense in gentle of how the anime business capabilities. Studios and the contractor animators are booked out years prematurely, so because the anime manufacturing committee apparently desires a fast turnaround on the second season it will make sense that they might swap to a studio and major workers that’s accessible sooner moderately than later.
As such, Anime Geek efficiently predicted that the Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro Season 2 launch date shall be in 2023.
Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro manga in comparison with the anime
The story for the anime TV sequence relies on the Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro manga by creator Nanashi, who goes by the pen identify 774.
Launched in November, the sequence is an internet manga serialized on-line in Kodansha’s Magazine Pocket app/web site. New chapters are launched bi-weekly.

Like many rom-com manga sequence, the Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro manga tends to have self-contained tales in every chapter. In later volumes, there are story arcs the place a number of chapters are related collectively in consecutive order, however the manga’s format gave loads of freedom to the anime writers.
Similar to the Kaguya-sama: Love is War anime (Kaguya-sama Season 3 is confirmed), the Nagatoro anime adapts chapters out of order and makes some adjustments, together with increasing on jokes and transferring up Nekotoro’s introduction. The Nagatoro anime even goes a step additional by making main thematic variations by shifting round character growth milestones.
For instance, within the Episode 1 flashback, Senpai Naoto Hachiouji was solely proven within the manga being bullied as a younger teen whereas the anime confirmed him as a toddler. Yoshi was given her personal strains whereas within the manga she tended to all the time parrot Gamo. The anime’s scene the place Nagatoro shoved Senpai was comedically exaggerated by having Senpai roll into the water moderately than merely hitting the bottom.
Episode 2 created the Big B**bs Vampires manga by combining School Rumble Shining with an unnamed vampire romance drama that was on TV within the manga.
Yoshi was changed by Sakura with a purpose to work the latter lady character into the story earlier. Originally, Sakura was launched within the first chapter, however she didn’t start being developed as a personality till manga Chapter 27.
In Episode 4, Nagatoro really ought to have stored her promise to Senpai by kissing him on the cheek, patting him on the pinnacle, and operating out of the artwork membership room earlier than he may reply. The fake-out prank she pulled the place a doll kissed him on the lips as a substitute was an anime unique joke.
Arguably, this story change cheapened Nagatoro’s character and the nuance of the second since Senpai put his soul into drawing the artwork this time round.
Episode 4 additionally eliminated the manga’s conclusion to the phase the place Nagatoro was demanding to be praised. In the manga, she just about lists off the true causes she is interested in him and is proven him wistfully.
At the identical time, eradicating the cheek kiss and the praising at this level within the timeline smoothed out the romantic development because the cheek kiss highlighted Nagatoro’s true emotions too early. This isn’t Horimiya the place the connection develops shortly inside a single season. Shifting the event to Episode 12 makes her actions extra impactful as a relationship milestone on the expense of heightening the bullying earlier on within the story.
In this fashion, the anime makes an attempt to make Nagatoro’s motives unclear because it’s unsure whether or not she’s really into Senpai or only a sadist getting off on torturing her senior. Still, even anime-only audiences ought to understand by Episode 4 that Nagatoro is shamelessly flirting with Senpai.
Episode 5 had Gamo and Yoshi tricking Nagatoro to depart the artwork membership room so the lady may torment “Paisen,” whereas within the manga, the 2 ladies have been simply casually dropping in when Nagatoro occurred to be absent.
Another main change was in Episode 11 when Nagatoro modeled for Senpai whereas carrying nothing however a towel. This was an anime unique scene along with the chase scene that adopted being prolonged. The anime additionally modified the setting from a random tree to the pool, which is extra emotionally important to Nagatoro.
Episode 12 capped off the primary season by heightening the drama with further dialogue. As predicted, the cheek kiss was moved to the after-credits scene to present a stable ending.
The titles of every anime episode usually corresponded to among the titles of the chapters that the episode tailored. The anime would solely present two titles, however every episode tailored greater than two manga chapters. Short bonus (omake) chapters have been usually used for the anime scenes proven earlier than the OP performed.

All in all, as predicted the anime’s second half tailored the Culture Festival story arc, which runs from Chapter 38 to 46. That meant the primary season’s finale, Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro Episode 12, discovered a stopping level comparable to Volume 6: Chapter 46.
Warning: The following paragraph comprises spoilers for anime-only audiences.
This stopping level is definitely sort of odd because the story arc in Chapters 48 to 50 gives a follow-up to the pageant that culminates in Nagatoro and Senpai’s first official date at a zoo. I say “odd” since ending on that word would supply a higher sense of plot decision to the primary season along with the cheek kiss. Perhaps Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro “Episode 13” could possibly be an OVA episode that animates this primary date?
As beforehand talked about, there at present aren’t sufficient unadapted chapters for making Don’t Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro Season 2, however because the creator releases roughly 26 chapters per 12 months, that received’t be an issue anymore by the primary half of 2022.
For these desirous to learn forward of the anime, English-only manga readers should purchase Volume 7 now. But you must also try the skipped chapters.
