The second season of Rozen Maiden, subtitled träumend (トロイメント, toroimento?) has a slightly darker tone. Träumend is German for 'dreaming.' The episodes are more plot-driven and deal with topics such as "Father" — the Rozen Maiden's creator — and the inevitable conclusion to the "Alice Game." Jun does not yet attend school (he has too much catching-up to do), but studies at home and in the local library, happily goes outside, and seems to have even grown fond of the ever-present dolls. Shinku has been changed due to the events of the previous season, but she is generally as aristocat-like as ever, lecturing and punishing Jun at every opportunity. Several new non-doll characters have been introduced. These characters include a riddle-spouting, formally-dressed rabbit and two mysterious men that operate a doll shop; one of which, a dollmaker, bears an uncanny resemblance to Rozen. The final three dolls are introduced in this season: Kanaria, the 2nd doll, and Kirakishou, the real 7th doll, as well as the fake 7th doll, Barasuishou.
