Where in the manga does anime season 2 of Rosario to Vampire end?


There are _massive_ differences in the plot, to the point where a reasonable
answer might be "chapter 1". Indeed, one might take umbrage to any claim that
the second anime season even had a plot. Unless you mean "plot" ironically for
"excessively ecchi elements". The anime is extremely focused on ecchi, which
was never a significant focus in the manga.

If you want to see the story and characters progress, without constantly
tossing their tits and panties in your face, you need to read the manga and
forget the anime entirely. On the other hand, if that sounds like exactly the
stuff you do want, ignore the manga and enjoy the anime.

I only watched the first few episodes of the second season before giving up on
it, but I read the manga in its entirety. I'll try to go through [this
list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Rosario_%2B_Vampire_episodes#Rosario_.2B_Vampire_Capu2)
and try to point out which of those plot lines would have actually occurred in
the manga.

1: Anime original.

2: Kokoa is a real character in the manga. Her introduction is different. The
description of Moka and Kokoa's relationship is accurate, though, and that's
pretty much how her introduction story line ends, as well.

3: The parental visit happens. The singing doesn't.

4: Anime original.

5: Anime original.

6: Anime original.

7: Anime original.

> We basically never see Tsukune's family again in the manga, beyond the
> Lilith's mirror thing that appears later and little more than a spectating
> cameo appearance in the final chapters. A fact I only just now realized.

8: Anime original.

9: Anime original.

> Mizore-centric plot lines basically vanish in the manga after she tells
> Tsukune about how breeding works for her kind. There is one fairly major
> exception I won't go into, but it's not contained in this anime episode for
> sure.

10: Anime original. If it involves the bat, it's anime original.

11: [The mirror](http://rosariovampire.wikia.com/wiki/Lilith's_Mirror) [also
appears in the manga](http://rosariovampire.wikia.com/wiki/Kyouko_Aono#Manga)
(the story happens mostly in the "first season" of the manga; the Lilith
character makes some appearances in the "second season"). But the following
does not happen: [![serious karate move is
serious](https://i.stack.imgur.com/OZ5vS.jpg)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/OZ5vS.jpg)
Basically, if you're seeing breasts or panties, that's anime original.

12-13: Anime originals.

> father doesn't play that big of a role.

tl;dr: Don't even bother trying to compare the two. Read the manga from the
very beginning.
