Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle Sets October 2026 for Its Second Cour
The television anime's continuation picks up from episode 14 and moves its setting to Tokyo, with a recap episode airing the week before.
A second cour arrives in October 2026
The official account for the television anime Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle has announced that the series' second cour will begin broadcasting in October 2026, releasing a new promotional video alongside the reveal. According to the show's official X account, the continuation picks up from episode 14, and the week before it premieres, a recap episode numbered 13.5 will air to bring viewers back up to speed.
What the announcement confirms
The post frames the new cour as the next chapter for protagonist Saku Chitose and his classmates, noting that the story's setting shifts to Tokyo. Beyond the October 2026 window, the recap episode, and the new PV, the official announcement did not attach a specific premiere date, an episode count for the cour, or additional staff, cast, or streaming details, so those remain unconfirmed for now.
The timing is worth noting on its own. The show's first cour of 13 episodes began airing in October 2025, so an October 2026 return places roughly a year between the two halves rather than a back-to-back split. The recap episode 13.5 slotted in the week prior reads as an acknowledgement of that gap, giving returning viewers a refresher before the story resumes.
Background
Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle is a high school comedy and romance series. Set at Fujishi High School, described as the most prestigious school in Fukui Prefecture, the story follows Saku Chitose, a student who stands out in class, on the field, and socially, as he is drawn into helping a withdrawn classmate return to school life. That Fukui setting anchored the opening episodes, which makes the teased move to Tokyo a pointed change of scenery for the continuation.
What to watch for
With the broadcast window fixed for October 2026 and a recap episode planned to precede it, the outstanding questions are the exact premiere date and where the second cour will stream, neither of which the announcement specified. Any staff, theme song, or cast additions would also typically surface closer to the fall. For now, the confirmed beats are the October window, the episode 13.5 recap, the new promotional video, and the shift to Tokyo.
