Heartstopper fans praise the second series of the show as it drops on Netflix: 'I'm obsessed and I never want it to end'
- WARNING: Contains Heartstopper series two spoilers
Heartstopper fans were sent into a frenzy as the time finally arrived for the release of the second series of the coming-of-age drama on Netflix on Thursday.
The hotly-anticipated series has finally made its comeback and dedicated fans have already blitzed their way through the series, before taking to Twitter to express their joy at being reunited with the show's much-loved characters.
The show resonated with both its intended teenage audience as well as the older LGBTQ+ community who were able to relate to the show and were gripped by its depiction of queer adolescence.
At the heart of the series is couple Nick and Charlie who ended last season together after an ongoing will-they-won't-they storyline.
Now in love the pair can't get enough of each other, but they still have challenges to face as Nick is still not out to his older brother or father.

Yet in this series it seems Nick is feeling more confident in his sexuality as he decides to come out to his dad.
After beginning - and some even finishing - the second series already, viewers took to Twitter to share their praise for the return of the show.
One person said: '[I'm] watching heartstopper season 2 and omg I'm obsessed I'm on episode 5 and I never want it to end.'
The new season is going down a treat with viewers as one wrote: 'I AM IN NEED OF THERAPY AFTER WATCHING HEARTSTOPPER SEASON2.'
A third chimed: 'If you need me today, I'm watching heartstopper s2 is out SEE YALL ON THE OTHER SIDE'.
Relating to the scene one viewer wrote: 'POV: You just watched Nick coming out to his dad after realising he's never really been there for him, and his opinion is irrelevant. Feeling the whole scene a little too close to home.'
Another wrote: 'I won't spoil anything for those that haven't seen it yet but heartstopper was so ??? I love this show so dearly'.
The show also follows the lives of Tao Xu (William Gao), Elle Argent (Yasmin Finney), Isaac Henderson (Tobie Donovan) and Imogen Heaney (Rhea Norwood).

Fans also gushed about Tao and Elle who are set this series to figure out if they can ever be more than friends.
One fan excitedly wrote: 'THE TAOELLE KISS WE WON' while another tweeted 'no tao and elle are so precious on this date'.
Elsewhere viewers sympathised with Imogen who when we last saw her had been rejected by Nick.
In series two it looks like she might be romantically interested in someone else, but fans think she can do better.
One commented: 'IMOGEN DESERVES BETTER' while another said 'can imogen break up with him already'.
This series is also set to follow Tara (Corinna Brown) and Darcy (Kizzy Edgell) as they face unforeseen challenges and one keen viewer was quick to notice that Tara may be a Taylor Swift fan as they spotted a Folklore poster in her room, one of Taylor's more recent albums.
With exams on the horizon, a school trip to Paris and a prom to plan, this series the gang has a lot to juggle as they journey through the next stages of life, love and friendship.
The group enjoy a trip to the city of love as they run through the streets and museums in the romantic capital in scenes which have sent fans over the edge.
One wrote: 'NICK AND CHARLIE WALKING UP THE EIFFEL TOWER TOGETHER IM SOBBING'.

Author Alice Oseman previously spoke to Radio Times about season two, revealing: 'This season, Nick wants to come out to the world, but faced with his nasty brother, his mostly absent father, and his laddy mates, soon finds that it's not as easy as he initially thought.'
Previously, Alice revealed that the show would focus on asexuality in season two.
She told Attitude magazine: 'I am both Ace and Aro. Those words mean little-to-no sexual attraction or little-to-no romantic attraction.
'Netflix will hate me for spilling but, yes, asexuality will be discussed in a really big way. I'm excited. I hope it will change the world. It's a complicated thing to understand about yourself. People are asking the wrong questions.'
Joining the cast for the second series are TikTok's Bel Priestley as Naomi, Ash Self as Felix, as well as Thibault de Montalembert as Stephane.
