The anime adaptation of the manga Toradora is returning to Crunchyroll and if the reports are to be believed, the series may have a new look to it. This is possibly due to the hike in popularity the rom-com anime has received recently since its availability on streaming platforms. We’ve got all the news for you that has come out thus far regarding Toradora season 2.
Starting as a light novel series, Toradora became quite popular among readers and was illustrated into a manga series by Zekkyo back in 2007. Later on, Toradora anime came out produced by studio J.

Toradora Season 2 Expected Plot
The enemies turned to friends relationship of Ryuji and Taiga is expected to grow further in Toradora season 2. The show is expected to continue from the final years of Ryuji and Taiga’s high school life.
The story has the potential to bring in new characters or develop supporting characters and build the plot or a subplot around them as well. Although this could be a path that the creators can explore, fans would rather watch where Taiga and Ryuji’s relationship goes.
