The second season of Tomozaki-kun is very different from the first. while in the first season we find ourselves observing the clear change of the protagonist from a true otaku closed to the world to a person inserted into the social context in which he finds himself.
In the second season however, the character's journey is much more focused on feelings and how to realize what you really want in your life.
Tomozaki distances himself from Aoi's point of view and begins to see flaws in the perfection she flaunts in front of others.
Furthermore, although Tomozaki always tends to progress in the story, when he
...
is put under pressure his initial reaction is to retreat to being closed and insecure like at the beginning of the story.
it's a very human and sensible reaction from my point of view.
I won't go into much detail about the character's romantic choices but I am slightly saddened by the lack of additional information on Aoi, for example: her past (her two little sisters, one of whom seems to have disappeared during middle school) and the reasons that drive her to help Tomozaki so much.
Regardless of this lack of data (which I hope will be integrated in the future) I think that this anime is an excellent example of an alternative slice of life that aims to highlight aspects of society and interpersonal relationships that are often not touched on in this type of media.
Final vote:8/10.
