With the second season of Strange+ scheduled to premiere in July, the first promotional video for it has come out. The announcement for the second season was made when the first season debuted so it was no surprise that more was in the offing. The promo gives us a look at what has come before while also providing a few teases for what this season will be like. It’s expected to get a similar pickup from Crunchyroll as they’ve largely done second seasons when they come through.
The show is based on the series from Verno Mikawa that has been worked on since 2002 in Monthly Comic Zero Sum. The series has grown a bit in the last couple of years as it went along as a drama CD was done and the cast from that is going to be doing the anime as well, which means Tomokazu Seki, Jun Fukuyama, Ryotaro Okiayu, and Satsuki Yukino will reprise their roles. The series is being adapted by Seven with Takashi Nishikawa writing and directing it with Hiroyuki Furukawa adapting the character designs into anime form.
Plot concept: Kou comes to a certain city, in search of his older brother Takumi, who ran away from home and disappeared. Thinking it’d be rather difficult to find his older brother, Kou decides not to go back until he finds him… but he ends up finding him immediately. However, when Kou is reunited with Takumi, he had become the head of the Mikuni Detective Agency. Takumi appears to have no intentions to go back home. Kou then decides that if his older brother isn’t going to come home, he’s going to stay at the Mikuni Detective Agency.
