Crunchyroll streams My Dress-Up Darling, describing the series: “Wakana Gojo is a high school boy who wants to become a kashirashi – a master craftsman who makes traditional Japanese Hina dolls. Despite his passion for the craft, he is clueless about the latest trends and has trouble fitting in with his class. The popular kids – especially one girl, Marin Kitagawa – seem to live in a completely different world. That all changes one day, when she shares a surprising secret with him, and their completely different worlds collide.” Despite the confirmation of a second season, no news has been released since the original announcement in September 2022.
