The yuri light novel “Eh, Watashi ga Socchi nano!?” Koinu-kei Kohai Kanojo ni Taberareru Kakkoii Watashi is returning with its second volume. Fantasia Bunko has scheduled the new book for October 20, 2026, with its newly revealed cover once again centering the relationship between Sakoto and Meguru.

Where the first book established the reversal between Sakoto's cool “prince” reputation and the way her puppy-like junior takes the lead in private, Volume 2 pushes that contrast into a more public conflict: Sakoto must decide how much of her real self she is willing to show at school.

Volume 2 Cover

Sakoto and Meguru Continue Their Relationship

The second book moves beyond the beginning of their romance. Sakoto and Meguru are already dating, while the series continues to play with its defining contrast: Sakoto remains the cool figure everyone admires publicly, while her private relationship with Meguru works very differently.

The new synopsis describes their days as sweet and hectic, with Meguru continuing to reveal sides of herself that catch Sakoto off guard.

Sakoto's “Prince” Persona Becomes a Problem

The larger shift in Volume 2 comes from Sakoto's relationship with her own public image.

She has become known throughout school as a cool, prince-like girl, but the further her relationship with Meguru develops, the harder it becomes to maintain that image without questioning what she actually wants.

That tension eventually leads to a plan to show her real self to the entire school.

The Whole School May See Another Side of Sakoto

This is more than a small comedy setup. KADOKAWA places the plan at the center of Volume 2's synopsis: Sakoto and Meguru prepare for a moment in which the student body may have to accept that the person behind the “prince” image is more complicated.

The romance therefore begins moving from a private dynamic into a question of how the pair presents itself in public.

From Kakuyomu Next to a Second Volume

The series began through Kakuyomu Next in August 2025 before receiving a Fantasia Bunko edition.

Volume 1 followed in November 2025 with illustrations by 成海七海 and additional material created for the book release. Less than a year later, Sakoto and Meguru's story is continuing with its second volume.

Why This Matters

1) The conflict is moving beyond the private relationship

Volume 1 established Sakoto and Meguru's unusual dynamic; Volume 2 explores what happens when that relationship affects Sakoto's place at school.

2) Sakoto's persona becomes part of her character development

The “prince” image is no longer only a comedy device—it becomes something she has to confront.

3) The web novel has reached a second commercial volume

After beginning serialization in 2025 and quickly receiving a print edition, Watasochi is continuing as an ongoing Fantasia Bunko series.
