What to Expect from Season 2?
The structure is quite unpredictable; the adaptation has covered 30 chapters irrespective of volumes and leaves gaps of many chapters in between. There’s no fixed plot and just some comedy skits, where the narrated perspective is that of Tatsu’s cat Gin. The principal characters whose lives are shown are Tatsu’s wife Miku and his subordinate Masa.
It might be that those left-out chapters will be taken for adaptation in season 2. The protagonist Tatsu will still be in his role as Househusband, balancing his yakuza role for the times when he will be financially in need. Masa will be seen following his master while learning how to keep the house by cooking, cleaning, etc. Torii Hibari and Torijiru are some characters who might be featured in the second season and offer a different angle in the episodes.
