The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten gets cute Mahiru visual for Leo – 5th Zodiac sign as August hits

Yep, Mahiru is a Leo and I’m very cool with that
I have to admit I am a little partial to the latest The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten Zodiac visual that dropped on the anime’s X account today.
Especially considering it is for Leo — the Zodiac sign of both my mother and myself.
The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten Leo Zodiac visual features the adorable Mahiru wearing cat ears, and cuddling the cutest lion cub — well…. a cat wearing a lion headdress and trying to look fierce.
Close, right?
The anime’s Leo Zodiac visual is the third in a 12-month series from the rom-com anime, with the next one (for Virgo) being released in late August.
The latest promotion for the Project No. 9-animated series came out today as Season 2 of the anime is currently in production, and due to premiere in April, 2026.
And yes, it will be over three years since the first season of The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten ended before the anime’s second season begins.
The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten, Season 2 production details
Chihiro Kumano (The Mononoke Lecture Logs of Chuzenji-sensei) is replacing Season 1’s Lihua Wang as director, while Keiichiro Oochi (The Café Terrace and Its Goddesses) is back in charge of scripts and series composition, and Takayuki Noguchi (The Dangers In My Heart) is returning to design the characters.
The anime is based on the light novels written by Saekisan and illustrated by Hanekoto.
Volume 1 of the Japanese edition of the novel series describes its cute plot in this way:
Next to the apartment where Amane Fujimiya lives resides Mahiru Shiina, the most beautiful girl at school.
Though the two had no particular connection, a strange bond begins to form when he lends her his umbrella on a rainy day as she stands there, completely drenched.
Unable to ignore Amane’s slovenly bachelor lifestyle, Mahiru starts cooking for him, cleaning his room, and fussing over him in every way.
As Mahiru — starved for familial warmth — gradually opens her heart and grows attached, Amane struggles to believe in her kindness. Despite his stubbornness, the distance between them slowly closes…
A sweet yet frustrating love story with a blunt but adorable neighbor, originally published on Shōsetsuka ni Narō (Let’s Become a Novelist) to overwhelming acclaim.
We’ll keep you posted here at Baozi Buns as more information about Season 2 of the hit anime drops, including next month’s Virgo visual.
