Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie season 2 plot: What to expect from the storyline further?
In the previous season we saw that it’s the winter break and Shikimori joins Izumi to shop for a jacket. As Christmas approaches, Kamiya prepares to enjoy the holiday quietly. However, she joins the other girls for Christmas gift shopping.
When Nekozaki invites Kamiya to an all-girls Christmas Eve karaoke party, she’s pulled out of her comfort zone. But with the right friends, perhaps she’ll be able to enjoy some Christmas cheer?
Of course, nothing can dampen the Izumi x Shikimori love fest. They see Christmas lights together, exchange Christmas gifts, and even watch a movie at Shikimori’s home with her mother.
Izumi’s mother and Shikimori’s mother even meet during a shopping trip. While the gang is flying kites, Izumi manages to lose his kite but it’s recovered by a woman named Rika Isana.
She’s Shuu Inuzuka’s senpai at his part-time job. Isana wishes to start a coffee shop of her own one day. The third semester will start with a school trip to Kyoto.
For the Kyoto trip, the class will be split up into groups and Izumi is made the group leader. But they need an extra boy for their co-ed group, so Izumi ends up picking the painfully shy Saraogi to join them.
During the Kyoto trip, Shikimori wants to make a special memory with Izumi. He also wants to make a memory… that’s just for the two of them. However, as for the season 2 plot, the makers haven’t made any potential announcements. Hence, we cannot predict the storyline further.

Who does Shikimori end up with?
The end of the series’ last episode should not come as a surprise to many viewers as Shikimori ends up with the love of her life, Izumi.
During Episode 12, titled “Better Than a Dream,” Shikimori and Izumi go to an amusement park and enter a ride together. When Izumi asks if Shikimori has any dreams, she says yes.
Then she says that she has a dream about falling in love and that it is now fulfilled. Later, when Izumi falls asleep on the ride, she wants to kiss him, but the ride ends before she can.
The two spend a wonderful time at the park and then go to a restaurant where Shikimori recalls the advertisement video for the amusement park, in which a couple was kissing each other.
She then tells Izumi to do the “thing” from the commercial without telling him what she is referring to. She waits for him to understand, but he does everything in the video except the kissing part.
He only understands what she means later on. Then they board a gondola ride where a power outage leaves them there in the dark. There, Izumi remembers Shikimori’s fear of him leaving her.
He tells her he loves her and will always be by her side no matter what happens. He also kisses her on the cheek while saying these romantic things. Shikimori then hugs him and says no dream could make her this happy!
