The new series is set two years after the first series, and will include more stories based on the original manga.
Suzunoki’s original manga centers around obstetrician Sakura Kōnotori, who is also a jazz pianist by night.
This year’s 30th issue of Kodansha’s Morning magazine revealed on Thursday that the live-action television series adaptation of Yū Suzunoki’s Kōnodori (The Stork) manga is getting a sequel series.
