Yamamoto Junichi, who will be directing the second season following the first, commented, "Congratulations on the decision to broadcast the second season of Koishima in 2026! This time we will be depicting Koishima all the way to the end, so I had many conversations with Mitsui-sensei and series composer Murai (Yu), and the scriptwriting team has written a wonderful story. The cast members have been in great sync and have given very passionate performances. Please look forward to it. 26 years will have gone by in the blink of an eye!"
