The second season of the anime was announced in the 14th volume of Komi’s manga, which was bundled with a OVA. Another OVA was announced to be releasing with the Nisekoi‘s 16th volume that will release in February next year. The upcoming OVA will adapt chapters 65 and 71 from the manga.

Nisekoi is a manga series that originally started off as a one shot from Naoshi Komi that released in January 2011. Komi then released the manga as a full series later on in the same year, when it was published in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump. Since its first publication, a total of 14 volumes have been released for the romantic comedy to date. Additionally a voiced comic has also been published and a light novel series. Viz Manga has also picked up the series late 2013 for English localisation, announcing that the chapters would be translated and released in Viz’s Weekly Shonen Jump Alpha. A anime adaptation of the manga aired from January this year, and ended in May for a total of 20 episodes. The anime is produced by studio Shaft (BakemonogatariMahou Shoujo Madoka☆Magica). A PlayStation Vita game based on the series is currently in development.

Here is a plot synopsis of Nisekoi from MAL:

As a child, Raku Ichijo made a secret promise with his childhood sweetheart, keeping a pendant as a memento while his love took the key. He dreams of one day meeting his past love, but years later, reality smashes his hopes when Chitoge Kirisaki accidentally knees him in the face…

Though Raku’s a normal high schooler, his family heads the notorious yakuza gang the Shuei-Gumi faction! And he’s dragged into family affairs when he’s forced into a relationship with Chitoge, the daughter of a rival gang’s boss!
