About Squid Girl 2

Meet Squid Girl 2 (侵略!?イカ娘), a comedy and slice of life anime by diomedéa and Nomad (2011). Here is the premise in a nutshell. In short: The nefarious Squid Girl is back to continue her self-appointed assignment to invade the surface world. Or that's what she would do, if she could just stop getting distracted by squidding movies, reading squidly manga, and making companions as only a squid could make them.

Beyond that: Squid Girl must overcome not only danger found at every turn, but her own squidly good nature as well.

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Voice work is led by Hisako Kanemoto as Ika Musume and Ayumi Fujimura as Eiko Aizawa. This one is best suited to viewers who want something light between heavier series. The run is 12 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
