raemz is the illustrator of Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle, the light novel series written by Hiromu. The property spans two media the stories track: the novels and their manga adaptation, both licensed in English by Yen Press, and a television anime produced at Studio feel.
Coverage has moved from the anime's second cours announcement to its confirmed date. In July 2026, Kadokawa announced an October 2026 debut but had not specified a date within the month. By September 11, 2026, the date was set: October 13, 2026, with the first broadcast on AT-X at 11:00 p.m. and later airings on Tokyo MX, BS11, Sun TV, KBS Kyoto, Fukui Broadcasting, and TV Aichi. An episode 13.5 recapping the series airs the week before.
The production throughline is continuity of staff. Yuji Tokuno directs at Studio feel., with Naruhisa Arakawa overseeing series composition alongside original author Hiromu. The cast includes Shogo Sakata as Saku Chitose, Manaka Iwami as Yuko Hiiragi, Hina Youmiya as Yua Uchida, and Sora Amamiya joining as Mai Todo. Cider Girl performs the opening theme "Saku" and aruma performs the ending theme "Doko nimo Ikenai Mama."
The first cours, which aired from October 2025 to March 2026, ran into delays: a postponed sixth episode and a split broadcast of the final three episodes in spring 2026. The second cours arrives after that disrupted run, and a recap episode is slotted before it.
