Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle Part 2 Starts October 13, and Our Philosophy Shelf Has Runs Free in Full

Part 2 of Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle begins on October 13, Anime News Network reports, and a promotional video announcing the date is out. Part 2's theme songs are performed by aruma and Cider Girl.
Our index holds two Chitose entries, and nothing of either is free here. The first season (a 2025 television series, 13 episodes recorded) carries the Philosophy tag at rank 81. Every tag in our index has a rank out of 100 recording how central it is to the title, so the season sits in the top band of the Philosophy shelf.
The Philosophy shelf by rank
588 entries in our index carry the Philosophy tag. 22 of them state a free episode count, 111 free episodes between them, and 15 of those 22 state exactly one. The other 566 state none.
- 192 entries carry Philosophy at rank 80 or higher, Chitose's first season among them. 10 of these state a count, 36 episodes in total, and 6 of the 10 state exactly one.
- 302 carry it at a rank from 60 to 79. 11 of these state a count, 74 episodes in total, and 8 of the 11 state exactly one.
- 94 carry it below rank 60, Part 2 among them. 1 of these states a count, for 1 episode.
The largest count on the shelf
Heidi, Girl of the Alps (1974, Philosophy at rank 60) states 51 free episodes against the 52 we record, the largest count on any of the 588 pages. Its page carries no language note. The episode 1 upload, from the "Heidi - Español" channel, which carries a YouTube verified badge, has an automatic Spanish caption track, which means Spanish audio, and the upload titles for episodes 26 and 52 are in Spanish too.
Runs free here in full, and one shorter run
Requested from the United States, each of these three pages states a free count that matches every episode we record.
- Boogiepop Phantom (2000, rank 89) states 12 free episodes of 12 recorded. All 12 uploads, from the "It's Anime powered by REMOW" channel, which carries a YouTube verified badge, carry an authored English subtitle track and an automatic Japanese caption track: Japanese audio with written English subtitles. Their country list names Canada and the United States.
- ARIA The ANIMATION (2005, rank 85) states 13 free episodes of 13 recorded. Its page notes Japanese audio. Its uploads come from the Nozomi Entertainment channel, which lacks a YouTube verified badge.
- Sound of the Sky (2010, rank 65) states 12 free episodes of 12 recorded. Its uploads, also from Nozomi Entertainment, expose no caption track, but still frames from episodes 1, 6 and 12 each show a line of English dialogue burned into the picture as a subtitle. Their country list names Canada and the United States.
One shorter run is 500000000 years button, a 2022 television series with Philosophy at rank 98, the highest rank of any entry on the shelf that states a free count. Its page states 3 free episodes against the 12 we record, so the free run covers episodes 1 to 3 and stops there. All three, from the same REMOW channel, carry Japanese audio with written English subtitles.
