Heartstopper is originally a comic book series created by author Alice Oseman. The series is known for addressing topics such as friendship, love, sexual identity and acceptance. It follows the journey of two main characters, Nick and Charlie, as they navigate the challenges of adolescence and discover their feelings for each other.
Building on the success of the first season of the series on Netflix, the second season of Heartstopper continues the story of Charlie Spring and Nick Nelson, two high school students who fall in love. The season starts with Charlie and Nick dating for a few months and are very happy together. They are also supported by their friends and family who are happy for them.

However, the season also presents some challenges for Charlie and Nick. Charlie is dealing with anxiety and depression, and Nick is dealing with pressure from his friends to be straight. They are also dealing with the negative reaction of some of their classmates to their relationship.

Despite the challenges, Charlie and Nick are able to pull through and stay together. They learn about themselves and love, and they grow as people.
In the second season of Heartstopper we have the same formula that we had in the previous season, the series follows the same path of telling a happy, fun and respectful story without wanting to focus too much on sad moments. Also, all those butterfly and lightning effects, after the characters touch each other, are still there. Although I find it a bit cheesy, I understand their meaning and it's plausible to have them on the show.
I can't say that there aren't complex moments of relationships that could take a lot of time in the narrative, they are there but the series was not made for these moments and everything often goes unnoticed with the help of the characters. In Heartstopper friendships are very important, anything can be resolved with her and in the second season this is evident.

The complexity of this season is Charlie and Nick's relationship, although some family members and close friends already know this, for Nick this is not enough. He faces all his anguish day after day in search of acceptance and does everything to tell the whole world that he is bisexual and is in a relationship with Charlie, this task is not easy even being portrayed in a series like Heartstopper.
