Nisekoi second season has a ":" in the name like "Nisekoi:". What is the meaning of that colon?

  • style I guess?? Just there to set it apart from the first season. Like SaeKano Flat. – paulnamida Apr 01 '18 at 19:07
  • Many anime has different symbols used in it e.g Steins;Gate, you can refer [this question](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/13477/steinsgate-chaoshead-and-roboticsnotes-naming-convention-with-semicolon) – Ichigo Kurosaki Apr 03 '18 at 04:01

It's become something of a pattern that anime series will have some kind of notation to indicate sequel seasons. Obviously "Season 2" or variations thereof happen a lot (e.g. "Shokugeki no Soma The Second Plate"), but several shows add a small extra detail to the title instead. Besides Nisekoi:, here are a few:

  • Working!! became Working'!! became Working!!!
  • K-On! became K-On!!
  • Gintama became Gintama' became Gintama° became Gintama.
