The anime sequel continued the shenanigans of Kazume and his party as they completed eerie quests to fulfill their everyday needs. However, a key detail of this sequel was the arranged marriage of Darkness with Alderp Barnes Alexei, a noble. The purpose of this rushed marriage was because Darkness' father was on his deathbed.

As expected, Darkness' friends couldn't let go of their friends in such alarming times. So, Kazuma, Aqua, and Megumi entered the marriage's podium and saved Darkness. Ironically, the reason behind Darkness' marriage, her father nearing death, was also because of the curse, which Aqua easily exorcised. Afterward, Darkness returned to the party as the adventures continued.
