I loved the first season of Kiniro Mosaic when it aired in summer 2013 so naturally, I was looking forward to seeing its sequel series, Hello!! Kiniro Mosaic. While season two got off to a slow start with its first episode, the addition of Kuzehashi-sensei and the ongoing chemistry among the five main girls have made the show my favorite of the season so far.
Shino’s blonde hair obsession is present but toned down from season 1, Aya is still nervous about her relationship with Yoko, Karen remains energetic as ever, and Alice occasionally gets interested in aspects of Japanese culture. Kuzehashi-sensei, the new homeroom teacher for many of the girls, contributes some humorous storylines involving her attempts to not frighten her students.
If you haven’t watched the first season, it’s on Crunchyroll along with the currently airing second season. Season 1 is also on Hulu from Sentai Filmworks, who distributed that season on Blu-Ray and DVD last August and licensed season two around its premiere date.
