Is the Anime Really Finished?#
If you are wondering whether you can jump into the series and get a complete story, the answer is no. The anime adaptation of Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms is currently ongoing.
While the first season premiered in early 2025, viewers will not find a final conclusion in that initial run. For those eager for more, there is great news: a second season has been officially revealed and is scheduled to debut in January 2027. Because of this gap, viewers who want a satisfying conclusion right now will likely need to continue with the original manga source material.

What to Expect: Plot and Appeal#
Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms is a delightful blend of comedy and romance. The story centers on Mona, the most popular and “cutest” girl in school, who has meticulously crafted her image for a successful high school debut. However, she meets her match in Medaka Kuroiwa, a stoic boy raised at a temple who was taught to maintain a distance from women.
The appeal of the series lies in the “unstoppable force meets an immovable object” dynamic. It is best suited for fans of romantic comedies who enjoy watching a confident protagonist struggle to win over a disciplined and indifferent love interest.
