Hey guys, do you know that one of the most hilarious and beloved Chinese BL anime, or danmei donghua had returned this 2023? Yes, our favorite gang from You Yao also known as Are You OK came back this year for the 2nd season of its donghua adaptation which began airing on September 27 on iQIYI.
You Yao Season 2 (Are You OK) Updates
The donghua had already premiered its 2nd season on September 27, 2023. But it seems that many avid followers of the series haven’t been aware of this, which is not surprising especially since it’s been almost 3 years since the first season has ended, and the announcement of its release date only took place a few days before the actual release date. If I may say, that is not enough time to disseminate the information in the donghua community no matter how small it may be compared to mainstream anime, after all, the flow of information among donghua fans is quite slow since there are only limited available sources for matters like this.
You Yao Season 2 continues where the story left us all from the previous season and it seems promising as ever. You Yao Season 2 is scheduled to have 24 episodes, hence, it’s gonna be quite a long journey filled with so much fun, action, Chinese humor, and some political conspiracies. Now, isn’t it exciting?
Shengying Animation comes back as its animation studio together with High Energy Studio, and iQIYI as its producer, and official distributing channel.

The series was adapted into a donghua in 2020 and aired as part of the summer lineup that year with Shengying Animation as its studio.
