In a contrast to the beginning of [[Kemono Friends (2017 Anime)|Season 1]] with its sweeping views of the Savanna, Season 2 begins inside of a desolate abandoned building with its roof collapsing. An unknown human stumbles out of a pod into a room filled with broken machines and similar pods from the past. He makes his way towards a door enshrined in light and steps outside. He picks up and dusts off a sign that welcomes him to [[Japari Park]] and takes in his unfamiliar surroundings.

He picks up and dusts off a sign that welcomes him to [[Japari Park]] and takes in his unfamiliar surroundings.  


After the opening theme plays, long-shots of the Savanna and some abandoned structures are shown. [[Caracal/Season 2|Caracal]], hiding in a bush, asks [[Donkey/Season 2|Donkey]] where she last saw the [[Cellien]] Caracal is hunting. Donkey introduces herself as a tough [[Friend]] with a good memory. Caracal is surprised to hear that a Cellien had shown up in the area and gets ready to look for it, prompting Donkey to tell her to be careful. Caracal asserts that she's vigilant unlike [[Serval/Season 2|Serval]], and tells Donkey to let her know about the Cellien before she goes into the forest. As she wanders, she comes across the human from before and startles him by sneaking up on him. She asks him what kind of Friend he is, but he doesn't answer her, and she warns him to leave the forest as the Cellien sneaks up behind her. She tells him about the danger of Celliens as they make their getaway, only to be cornered by a second one. Suddenly, Serval appears and defeats the Celliens to save Caracal and the boy.

In the abandoned building Kyururu woke up in, [[Giant Pangolin/Season 2|Giant Pangolin]] inspects his pod, noting that he was there and wondering what it is. She tells [[Giant Armadillo/Season 2|Giant Armadillo]] to stop playing with the machinery because they're supposed to be conducting an investigation. She's worried about her target getting further away. Suddenly, a booming roar is heard and the two assume their defensive ball positions. They quickly leave, not wanting to be found by the source of the roar.

Kyururu and company arrive at a Japari Line monorail station, with the place in his drawing nearby. When Eastern Spot-Billed Duck points it out, Kyururu notices that it's changed a lot since he drew it. Kyururu adds the group into his drawing and gifts it to Eastern Spot-Billed Duck to remember them by. She gets very emotional and glad she was able to guide them all safely. Kyururu seems to remember the monorail train, saying that he rode here on it.

Suddenly, Serval's ears perk up when she senses a Cellien incoming. The group retreats into the station, but when Kyururu falls, Eastern-Spot Billed duck pretends to fall too to distract the Cellien and allow Kyururu to get to safety. Serval explains that it's her special skill, and she makes her own getaway after having distracted the Cellien. On the upper level, Serval is confused at how to open the door to the train, but Kyururu manages to open it and the three board. The [[Lucky Beast]] driver instructs them to stay clear of the doors, shocking Caracal that he can talk.
