JOCHUM Season 2

JOCHUM Season 2 is a 2025 animated television series produced by the studio Fanworks. The project originated from a collaboration between Sanrio and the members of the boy band JO1, designed to bring individual, character-based personas of the band members to life through short-form animation. The series continues the narrative established in its predecessor, focusing on the whimsical daily lives of these character avatars.

The character designs were developed to reflect the distinct personalities and visual traits of the JO1 members, blending Sanrio’s signature aesthetic with the band's identity. Upon release, the series was received primarily by the band's established fanbase, who appreciated the expansion of the JOCHUM universe. It serves as a digital extension of the merchandise line, aimed at strengthening the emotional connection between the artists and their audience through lighthearted, episodic storytelling.
