It’s been a few years since we got to talk about Chi’s Sweet Adventure, the first 51-episode season of the series that arrived in 2016. We learned in February 2024 that the show is getting a new lease on life as a new season has been announced with Chi’s Sweet Summer Vacation with the main production folks coming back for it along with the cast.
The series has now received a new promotional video and key visual below while revealing a July 2024 premiere on Netflix.
Additional cast was revealed with:
- Yū Serizawa as Aina
- Aimi Tanaka as Tida
- Kanae Kuninaka as Umikaji
- Rikako Aikawa as Champloo
- Miki Nagasawa as Grandmother
- Ryosuke Higa as Grandfather
Directed by Kiminori Kusano, Misuzu Chiba is handling the series composition with Marza Animation Planet handling the animation production. Satomi Koorogi is returning to play Chi once again while the additional cast includes Ryoko Shiraishi as Yōhei, Maaya Sakamoto as Mother, Makoto Yasumura as Father, Motoko Kumai as Kocchi, and Rikiya Koyama as Kuroino.
Property Concept: The series centers around a kitten who gets lost after walking out into the real world for the first time. A boy named Yōhei Yamada discovers her, but the Yamada family’s apartment building prohibits pets. After failing to find a new home, the Yamadas decide to defy the rules and raise Chi themselves. Most of Chi’s coming-of-age stories revolve around the Yamadas or the cats, dogs, and the occasional rabbit that live in the neighborhood.
