Mission: Yozakura Family Season 2 will return with its second cour in October 2026, continuing the Yozakura siblings’ increasingly dangerous confrontation with their father, Momo Yozakura.
The continuation was announced after the Japanese broadcast of Episode 39 on June 28, which served as the 12th and final episode of Season 2’s first cour.
A new teaser trailer was released alongside the announcement, revealing that Momo’s distorted attempt to reunite his family will expand into a threat against the entire Spy Association. The footage also offers the first anime look at several Gold-Rank spies who will become important during the next stage of the story.
Cour 2 will begin airing in Japan in October 2026, every Sunday at 5:00 p.m. JST across 28 stations affiliated with MBS and TBS. A specific October premiere date has not yet been announced.

The second cour will continue the same television season that began on April 12, 2026. It is not being promoted as a separate third season.
The anime will take a three-month broadcast break during the summer before returning as part of the fall 2026 season.

The New Teaser Focuses on Momo Yozakura
The teaser places Momo Yozakura at the center of the conflict following the revelations that concluded the first cour.
Momo is the father of Mutsumi and the other Yozakura siblings. Despite claiming to love his family, his actions are driven by an obsessive and deeply distorted understanding of what that family should become.
His plans threaten the independence and safety of his children, turning him into an opponent whose emotional connection to the Yozakura family makes him more dangerous than a conventional enemy.
The new footage shows that Momo’s actions will no longer affect only the Yozakura mansion. His growing influence eventually creates a crisis serious enough to threaten the Spy Association itself.
Momo Wants to Rebuild the Family According to His Own Vision
Momo’s objective is connected to the loss of his wife, Rei Yozakura, and his inability to accept the family’s current reality.
Rather than allowing his children to choose their own lives, he attempts to manipulate them according to his personal vision of a reunited family.
That obsession places him directly against Taiyo, who has gradually become a genuine member of the Yozakura household through his marriage to Mutsumi and his willingness to protect every sibling.
Taiyo represents a family built through trust, shared experiences and personal choice. Momo represents control disguised as affection.
Their conflict therefore extends beyond physical strength. It asks who has the right to define the future of the Yozakura family.
The Gold-Rank Spies Enter the Story
The second-cour teaser also introduces the Gold-Rank spies, operatives who stand among the most capable members of the professional spy world.
The ranking system measures more than individual combat strength. High-ranking spies must possess exceptional intelligence, field experience, specialized abilities and the capacity to complete missions involving threats beyond the reach of ordinary agents.
Their appearance indicates that Momo’s campaign has grown into a problem requiring intervention from the highest level of the Spy Association.
The Gold-Rank spies will not necessarily share the same methods or opinions about the Yozakura family. Some may see Taiyo and his siblings as valuable allies, while others could view their unusual powers and family secrets as part of the danger.
Taiyo Faces His Most Personal Mission Yet
Taiyo Asano began the series as an ordinary student traumatized by the loss of his family.
His marriage to Mutsumi brought him into a household of highly trained spies and gave him another opportunity to experience family life.
Taiyo initially struggled to survive Kyoichiro’s attacks and the daily dangers surrounding the Yozakura family. Through training and repeated missions, however, he developed into a capable spy who could stand beside the siblings rather than remaining someone they needed to protect.
The conflict with Momo places Taiyo against the biological father of the family he joined.
Protecting Mutsumi now means defending her right to choose her own future, even when the person threatening that future insists that his actions come from love.
Mutsumi Remains at the Center of the Family Conflict
Mutsumi Yozakura is the tenth head of the Yozakura family and the only sibling who did not inherit the superhuman physical abilities associated with the family’s spy lineage.
Her position nevertheless makes her indispensable. As the family head, she carries the bloodline and authority connecting generations of Yozakura spies.
Momo’s plans place enormous pressure on Mutsumi because they transform her from a daughter into the central piece of his attempt to reconstruct the family.
Her relationship with Taiyo offers a direct contrast. Taiyo protects her without attempting to control her, while Momo believes his position as her father gives him the authority to decide what is best for everyone.
The First Cour Revealed More About Tsubomi Yozakura
Season 2 began a new mission after the defeat of Tanpopo and the completion of the Yozakura Front Lines operation.
Taiyo encountered Tsubomi Yozakura, the first head of the family, inside a dream. She asked him to kill her and explained that two particular things would be required to accomplish that objective.
Following her instructions led Taiyo toward another encounter with Makoto Kawashita, the former leader of Tanpopo and a man whose experiments were closely connected to Tsubomi’s blood.
These developments expanded the story beyond the defeat of a single criminal organization. Tsubomi’s continued existence and the effects of her blood remain central mysteries surrounding the Yozakura family.
Taiyo Completed the Silver-Rank Spy Examination
One of the first cour’s major storylines followed Taiyo as he attempted the Silver-Rank spy examination.
The examination had developed a terrifying reputation because its instructors were said to reject every candidate.
Taiyo needed the higher rank to approach information and people connected to his mission involving Tsubomi and Kawashita.
The examination tested his combat ability, judgment, adaptability and willingness to protect others while operating under pressure.
His progress demonstrated how far he had developed since entering the Yozakura household, but the arrival of Gold-Rank spies shows that he still has much to learn about the highest levels of the profession.
The Yozakura Siblings Must Confront Their Father Together
Each Yozakura sibling possesses a different emotional relationship with Momo.
Kyoichiro, Futaba, Shinzo, Shion, Kengo and Nanao experienced his presence within the family before the events that separated them. Their memories and reactions prevent the conflict from becoming a simple battle between heroes and a stranger.
Some siblings respond through anger, while others carry confusion, grief or unresolved hope connected to the father they once knew.
The teaser suggests that Momo will exploit those emotional weaknesses while attempting to divide the family.
Defeating him will require the siblings to remain united even when they disagree about how their father should be confronted.
Kyoichiro’s Devotion Will Be Tested Again
Kyoichiro Yozakura is the oldest sibling and the person most openly obsessed with protecting Mutsumi.
His extreme behavior often provides comedy, particularly when he attempts to eliminate Taiyo for becoming too close to her.
Beneath those exaggerated reactions, Kyoichiro carries the responsibility of someone who has spent years trying to hold the family together.
Momo’s return challenges that role. Kyoichiro must face the person whose choices helped create the instability and pain he has tried to prevent from reaching Mutsumi.
The confrontation may also force him to decide whether protecting his sister means controlling every threat himself or trusting Taiyo and the other siblings to fight beside him.
Season 2 Cour 2 Will Expand the Spy Association
The arrival of Gold-Rank spies gives the anime an opportunity to reveal more about the organization governing professional espionage.
The Spy Association establishes rankings, assigns missions and provides structure to a profession filled with dangerous individuals and secretive families.
Until now, the anime has focused primarily on Taiyo’s development and the unusual skills of the Yozakura siblings.
The next cour can compare them with other elite spies whose training, priorities and personal methods developed outside the Yozakura household.
Momo’s attack on the association also raises the scale of the conflict. If the organization responsible for coordinating spies can be destabilized, the consequences could extend far beyond one family.
