My Stepmom's Daughter Is My Ex has arrived on Crunchyroll, complete with an English dub and subtitles. The 12-episode series from Studio Project No.9 adapts the romantic comedy manga of the same name, following the complicated relationship between two former lovers who unexpectedly become step-siblings.
The premise centers on Yume and Koki, who dated in middle school but broke up. Their lives take a bizarre turn when their respective parents marry each other, forcing them to live under the same roof as step-siblings while navigating their lingering feelings and new family dynamic. It's a setup ripe for awkward encounters and comedic misunderstandings.
While not a major hit on aggregate sites, the series offers a straightforward romantic comedy with a unique, if outlandish, central conflict. Viewers seeking a completed binge with a focus on character interactions and a blend of humor and romance will find it here.
