You come back to these characters the way you'd return to a favorite mug you made yourself, it fits your hands differently now, but it still feels right. The pottery never stops being the point; it's the language these people use to say things that matter, one glaze layer at a time. Season two trusts you enough to let quiet moments breathe, to let a kiln cooling down feel like something worth your time.

Fresh from the Mino ware contest, Himeno Toyokawa sets out to make a piece that surpasses her last one. Nervous about what lies ahead but encouraged by the legacy of her late mother, a renowned potter, she searches for the right inspiration, which turns out to be as hard as the goal itself. When her father proposes that her next work serve as the centerpiece of the cafe, the pressure on the finished piece keeps building. Through new meetings and experiences, Himeno and her friends return to the roots of their love for the craft as they look for what lies at the heart of pottery. The second season of the comedy slice-of-life short about a pottery club in Tajimi, Gifu, runs for 12 episodes.
