The ending theme song for the My Dress-Up Darling Season 2 has been announced, and it will be “Kawaii Kaiwai” by PiKi, a new idol unit composed of Karen Matsumoto and Haruka Sakuraba.
Matsumoto is a member of FRUITS ZIPPER, a Harajuku-based idol group managed by ASOBISYSTEM’s KAWAII LAB. Sakuraba is affiliated with CUTIE STREET, another KAWAII LAB. project that debuted in 2024. PiKi marks a collaborative unit that will feature members from two separate active groups within the same management label.
The song was first performed live at OKINAWA COLLECTION 2025 on June 21. A short video featuring comments from the two performers was also released:
Comment from Karen Matsumoto:
I already knew that Paru-tan (Haruka) was a big fan of My Dress-Up Darling, so I was really happy that we could be part of this together!
After I received the offer, I read the series myself, and I really love how every character is so passionate about the things they love. It feels very “NEW KAWAII,” and that really resonated with me ♡
As for the song, I hope people will pay attention to how well Paru-tan’s voice and mine blend together—it even surprised me how well they match! I hope everyone listens a lot and comes to love the anime even more!
Comment from Haruka Sakuraba:
I’ve always, always loved My Dress-Up Darling—I’ve read every volume, so when I heard we’d be doing the ending theme, I was honestly shocked and incredibly happy.
The ending theme, “Kawaii Kaiwai,” is a beautiful song that captures Marin’s passion for both love and cosplay, so I hope people will really listen closely.
I’m also really looking forward to Marin’s new cosplay and how her relationship with Gojo-kun develops!

The first trailer and opening theme song were recently revealed. The opening song is “Ao to Kirameki” by Spira Spica.

The main staff is also returning from Season 1, which means series composition by Yoriko Tomita, character designs by Yusuke Yamamoto and Kazumasa Ishida, and music by Takeshi Nakatsuka.
The anime is set to premiere on July 5, with Crunchyroll confirmed to stream it as part of its Summer 2025 lineup.
