TSUKIMICHI -Moonlit Fantasy- season 2 kicked off on January 8, 2024, but it’s never too late for a new cast addition. The latest has Yoshitsugu Matsuoka (Inosuke Hashibira in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba) getting in on the adaptation of the light novels written by Kei Azumi and illustrated by Mitsuaki Matsumoto as a character named Root.
Root is a highly-ranked dragon with the same golden magic as the goddess. You can see his character design below.
Shinji Ishihira, whose credits include Fairy Tail and Log Horizon, is reprising the role as director for the second season. The music continues to be composed by Yasuharu Takanashi, who has also worked on Fairy Tail and Log Horizon. The person in charge of series composition is Kenta Ihara of Saga of Tanya the Evil.
NTV gave this description for the plot:
Makoto Misumi is just an ordinary high school student living a regular life, but all of a sudden gets summoned to the other world to become a “hero.” The goddess of the other world, however, insults him for being different and strips his “hero” title, before casting him off to the wilderness at the edge of the world. As he wanders the wilderness, Makoto encounters dragons, spiders, orcs, dwarves, and all sorts of non-human tribes. Because Makoto comes from a different world, he is able to unleash unimaginable magical powers and combat skills. But just how will he handle his encounters with various species and survive in his new environment. In this fantasy, Makoto tries to transform the other world into a better place despite the humans and gods having turned their backs on him.
