After the first season landed in 2011, the second season of Dog Days is getting closer to its July 7th premiere broadcast and a new TV spot is out to showcase it. The series is planned for another thirteen episode run with Seven Arca returning for the anime production work. The team has changed up a bit though with a new director stepping in as Junji Nishimura will helm the show in place of the first seasons’ Keizo Kusakawa. The first season of the series was a multifacted project with the original anime show, a new light novel series that ran for four volumes that year and a single manga compilation as well.
Plot concept: The series revolves around Cinque Izumi, a cheerful and athletic half-Japanese, half-English boy studying at Kinokawa International School in Japan who is suddenly summoned to the alternate world of Flonyard. The people there look no different from humans, except for one thing; they have animal ears and tails. The one who summoned him is Millhiore, the dog-like Princess of the Biscotti Republic, who requested his assistance in their war against the forces of the feline-like Galette Lion Army. The wars in Flonyard differ from the ones on Earth, and are waged with special rules and no casualties in a fashion similar to a sports competition with the purpose to raise funds for the Kingdoms involved, where the winner faction claims a larger sum than the losing side.
