Taiyo’s life has recently taken some drastic turns. He lost his family in a terrible car accident, and now endures crippling anxiety. Taiyo is afraid of losing more loved ones, so he refrains from forming new bonds. However, his childhood friend’s overprotective older brother has provoked him into proposing to her to save both their lives. We’ll see how fun and dangerous his new married life becomes when Mission: Yozakura Family (Yozakura-san Chi no Daisakusen) Season 2 premieres sometime in April 2026.

Mission: Yozakura Family. Failure Is Not an Option.
Taiyo Asano has struggled to cope with the loss of his family. He lost his mother, father, and younger brother in a terrible car accident. Taiyo has since pushed his friends away out of fear that he’ll have to watch them die as well. He simply can’t handle any further pain. His childhood friend, Mutsumi Yozakura, has stayed with him through thick and thin. She understands his pain and helps to keep his head above water. Their deep bond has incurred the wrath of someone quite close to Mutsumi.
Kyoichiro Yozakura is the eldest child of the Yozakura family, and he takes his position very seriously. He’s especially overprotective of Mutsumi after saving her life from a terrible incident in the past. A new assassin has appeared to target Mutsumi’s life, and apparently, it’ll be someone she’s known for years. This leads Kyoichiro to target Taiyo’s life. Mutsumi and her siblings quickly save him and offer him a chance to survive: he has to marry Mutsumi and join the family. Taiyo will have to train and earn his place among a family of superpowered spies.
