  • Canceled? Psycho-Pass Season 4: Everything To Know

    Canceled? Psycho-Pass Season 4: Everything To Know

    The brand new episodes of Psycho-Pass Season 4 are about to premiere on our screens. The new season is likely to untangle the mysteries set up by Season 3. After the First Inspector movie premiere, the demand for a fourth season has increased, and it’s going out of hand day by day. When will the new season release? What’s in the future of the show? Here are all the answers to your burning questions.

    Writer Gen Urobuchi’s Psycho-Pass is one of the best psychological thriller anime of all time. The series debuted back in 2012 and has been ruling our hearts ever since. After the super-hit first season of the show, Production I.G. took no time to release the second season. However, the studio took too long to release another season after the 2014 Season 2. Well, they sure did keep us engaged with two original films in between the second and third installment.

    Psycho-Pass’s third season premiered back in October 2019 and ran through only eight episodes until December of that year. Well, the new season was very short as compared to the 22-episode Season 1 and 11-episode Season 2. However, unlike the first two installments, Season 3 offered double the length of episodes than before. Yet, it left us hanging with many unsolved mysteries and doubts. Hence, Production I.G. released another original film called Psycho-Pass 3: First Inspector in March 2020, as a sequel to the third installment.

    Psycho-Pass Season 4: Renewal Updates

    Without a doubt, Psycho-Pass is amongst some of the best things the anime industry can offer. It has an intriguing storyline topped with top-notch animation quality. Hence, fans were lucky enough to get more than one season (since the anime industry is infamous for not producing sequels). The last few years have become absolutely addictive for fans of the crime-cyberpunk show.

    Production I.G. offered us at least one Psycho-Pass project every other year since the anime’s debut back in 2012. Hence, soon after the premiere of the First Inspector film, the demand for a fourth season surged. Besides, many of the loose ends left by the last season are yet to be solved. However, the studio is yet to renew Psycho-Pass Season 4, as of November 2020. Well, that does not assure the cancelation of the series either.

    Psycho-Pass Season 4

    Besides, it hasn’t been long since the third film’s release, so it’s currently too early to expect another season. Given the popularity of the anime, the renewal might arrive in a couple of months. We promise to update this section as soon as the news comes out.

    Season 4 Plot Details

    The plot of the third season was a mess. It left us hanging with plenty of loose ends and a crazy cliffhanger. Fortunately for fans, the First Inspector movie (or the three-episode Amazon Prime short season) ended up untangling many of Season 3’s mysteries. In fact, the ending of the film felt more like the ending of the entire show. Yayoi survived the final of Season 3, Akane is out on bail, Shion has recovered her hue and has been released. Moreover, most importantly, neither of our favorite characters died this time.

    Psycho-Pass Season 4

    However, the movie does leave out enough plotlines to be explored by Psycho-Pass Season 4. As of now, there’s still a lot of mystery surrounding the murder of Arata’s father, Atsushi Shindo, and Kei’s brother Akira Ignatov.

    The new season should also explain what happened to Akane and how she got imprisoned in the first place. It should also talk about her relationship with the Congressman. Besides, fans also need to know why Shizuka wanted Akane out or if he was the one who recommended Arata to Akane. Hence, the new season should discuss all of these things, and we hope that viewers get the answers to all their questions.

    Is There Enough Source Material For The New Season?

    Unlike most anime series, Psycho-Pass is an original story and does not adapt from any source material. The first season has been written by authors Gen Urobuchi and Makoto Fukami. Whereas, popular anime screenwriter Tow Ubukata wrote the second and third installments. Likewise, Psycho-Pass will also be an original story, probably written by Ubukata again.

    Well, since the anime is not an adaptation, its return solely depends on the way it performs (sequel of many adaptations depend upon the sales of their source material).

    Hence, the third season of the show and Psycho-Pass 3: First Inspector need to perform well in order to get a new season. Fortunately, 2019’s Season 3 was an international hit. The First Inspector movie faced issues due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Yet, it managed to trend after its premiere on Amazon Prime. Thus, chances for the return of Psycho-Pass Season 4 are pretty likely.

    Psycho-Pass Season 4: Release Date

    As of now, Production I.G. and any other studio related to the production of the anime are yet to renew the fourth installment. However, the renewal is likely to arrive in a couple of months. If that happens, the studio might begin its production earlier next. Hence, Psycho-Pass Season 4 is expected to premiere sometime around late-2021 or early-2022. Keep an eye on this corner for the official release date.

    What are your thoughts about the First Inspector Film? Are you excited for Psycho-Pass Season 4? Please share with us in the comments below.

  • Yona Of The Dawn Season 2: Finally Renewed? 2021 Release Date Updates

    Yona Of The Dawn Season 2: Finally Renewed? 2021 Release Date Updates

    For the last five years, fans have been asking only one question, “When Yona Of The Dawn Season 2 will be finally renewed?” Fortunately, now is the most suitable time. The Akatsuki no Yona manga series is back on track again, which brightens the future of its anime adaptation. What will be the plot of the new season? When will it come out? Here’s everything you need to know about your favorite anime.

    Yona Of The Dawn is a well-appreciated manga series written and illustrated by talented artist Mizuho Kusanagi. It began serialization back in August 2009 and has been in the run ever since. In the last decade, the series has received constant love and supports from its readers alongside some terrific reviews. Hence, its popularity led to the story being picked up for an anime adaptation.

    Check latest updates about Yona Of The Dawn Season 2 on Anime Daily.

    Back in October 2014, Studio Pierrot released the first episode of the anime around Japan. The series completed its air by March 2015, whereas Funimation began streaming it in North America. After three OVA episodes in 2015 and 2016, the studio has not released any latest Yona Of The Dawn content.

    Yona Of The Dawn Season 2

    Yona Of The Dawn Season 2: Renewal Updates!

    For almost half a decade now, fans have been waiting for Yona Of The Dawn Season 2 renewal. Yet, Studio Pierrot or any other producers have not given away anything substantial about the show’s future. However, one of the main reasons behind the same was April 2016’s Kumamoto earthquakes. The tragic event took the lives of at least 50 people, whereas around 3,000 were injured.

    Sadly, YOTD’s mangaka Mizuho Kusanagi was one of the injured victims and took a while to recover after the heartbreaking incident. Through some tweets, she informed her fans that the incident would become a major setback to the continuation of her work. This affected the manga’s run and also created uncertainty for its future and the anime alike. Fans speculate that this could be the reason why no Yona Of The Dawn anime project was released for so long.

    Yona Of The Dawn Season 2

    However, fortunately, the author soon recovered and has been publishing her manga volumes on time. In fact, some of her latest works are receiving much appreciation from fans and critics alike. Henceforth, this is the peak time for Akatsuki no Yona’s return. Having said that, speculations suggest that the renewal of Yona Of The Dawn Season 2 can arrive anytime now. Don’t worry, we’ll be the first one to inform you about the same. Keep an eye on this corner for all future YOTD updates.

    Is There Enough Source Material For A New Season?

    What will be the plot of Yona Of The Dawn Season 2?

    One major thing that threatens the future of Akatsuki no Yona is the amount of source material left for adaptation. Luckily, in that matter, the future of all upcoming seasons of YOTD is secure. The original manga has run for a total of 33 tankōbon volumes today (Volume 34 is set to come out on December 18, 2020). As of now, the series is still in the run and might not end anytime soon.

    Studio Pierrot anime series debuted with 24 episodes, which covered the first eight volumes of the manga. Thereby, Yona Of The Dawn Season 2 will likely adapt the next eight. This leaves plenty of content for the anime’s future installments.

    Yona Of The Dawn Season 2

    As per the plot of Volume 9, Zeno, the Yellow Dragon, will be joining Yona’s party. Finally, now the Four Dragons have assembled. They are now headed to Yun’s birthplace in the land of the Fire Tribe, where citizens have to famine and are forced into poverty by heavy taxes. Hence, our leading lady and her friends will try to protect the town and its people from the oppressive government officials.

    Yona Of The Dawn Season 2: Release Date

    As of now, the official renewal of Yona Of The Dawn Season 2 is yet to arrive. However, it is suspected to be announced sometime soon. If the green flag comes in 2021, the release date of the sequel might fall sometime around early to mid 2022.

    What were your most favorite moments from the first season? What do you expect from Akatsuki no Yona Season 2? Please tell us in the comments below.

  • The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3: Release Date & New Haunted House, Plot Details

    The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3: Release Date & New Haunted House, Plot Details

    Like the Hill House, the story of The Haunting’s next outing will move on from Bly Manor as well. Mike Flanagan will set his new project in a whole new haunted house altogether. He will probably pick the works of another legendary author for The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3. Also, we’ll take a look at a scene from Season 2, which has a hint about the third installment’s plot. When will the new episodes come out? Will we ever go back to Hill House and Bly Manor? Here are the answers to all your burning questions.

    The Haunting is popular horror anthology series created by acclaimed director Mike Flanagan. The Netflix original series debuted back in October 2018 and won the hearts of millions of people around the world. With a brilliant cast of psychologically damaged characters, the installment took us deep inside the mysteries of Hill House. However, being an anthology, the show had to move on from the first story and begin another one for the sequel.

    The second season of the show called The Haunting Of Bly Manor took two years to hit the screens. It premiered on Netflix with a total of nine episodes in October 2020. Yet again, Flanagan’s ‘perfectly-splendid’ work was loved by the viewers. Well, the installment also split The Haunting’s fans into two as to which season was the better one. Overall, the sequel has set up high expectations for the third installment.

    The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3: Renewal Updates

    As of now, Netflix or any producer of the show has not confirmed the third season. Well, it’s currently way too early to expect a renewal. The streamer usually takes a few months to assess the success rate of any show. Moreover, Season 2 was greenlit four months after the release of the debut installment. Hence, fans might need to wait for a few months to get the renewal of The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3. We will update this section with relevant information.

    When Will The Productions Begin?

    The filming for Bly Manor began almost a year after its predecessor’s release. However, the creators of the critically-acclaimed show may even take longer this time. Show director and mastermind Mike Flanagan has a busy schedule ahead of 2020. He has already begun working on Netflix’s new supernatural horror series called Midnight Mass. Its production started back in August 2020 and might take several months to complete.

    On the other hand, as CNET speculated, Warner Bros. might rope in the talented director for a new project. The studio is rumored to be planning to produce an adaptation of a novel by Stephen King called Revival. It is said that the movie might be much darker than Flanagan’s previous work. The upcoming film might feature mature themes centering around the relationship between a drug-addicted musician and a dubious faith healer with a hidden agenda.

    It is speculated that Flanagan will begin filming Revival after his project with Netflix. However, the director is yet to confirm whether he’ll direct the movie in 2021 or later. Well, there are chances that he will pick up the productions of The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3 after Midnight Mass and before Revival. Even if that happens, filming for the third installment might not begin anytime sooner than late-2021 or early-2020.

    What Will Be The Plot Of The New Season?

    Ever since the second season ended, fans of the show have begun to talk about the upcoming season’s plot. The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3 will be renamed based on the haunted house it’s based in. Flanagan has been picking up the works of legendary authors for ‘The Haunting’ series. The first season of the show was inspired by Shirley Jackson’s popular 1959 novel called The Haunting Of Hill House.

    The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3
    Netflix

    Whereas, Season 2 acts as an adaptation of Henry Thomas’s 1898 novella The Turn Of The Screw. However, it also picks up some elements based on some other works of the renowned author. Hence, The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3 is likely to be based on the works of another acclaimed horror-supernatural author. Thus, here’s the most probable option that Flanagan can pick.

    Villette by Charlotte Brontë

    *Flanagan’s Secret Hint In The Haunting Of Bly Manor*

    The mastermind Mike Flanagan had given out a major hint about the plot of The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3 in the previous season. Screenrant pointed out that the characters talked about a ghost story in the first few minutes of the second season. The guests that came for Flora’s (older) wedding discussed the supposed ghost of a nun in the castle they were in. Flora’s husband went on to say that the castle used to be a convent for a few decades in the 1940s.

    This story was never discussed again in the show and had no purpose of being mentioned at all. Hence, many fans wonder whether it was a hint for the upcoming season. Surprisingly, the story has a lot in resemblance to Charlotte Brontë’s novel called Villette. The horror novel takes place in a convent and also features a nun. She supposedly buried alive on the convent’s grounds for breaking her vow of chastity. Villette is a critically acclaimed novel and will likely be the perfect choice for The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3 (or The Haunting Of The Convent?).

    Netflix

    The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3: Release Date

    As of now, Netflix has not announced the return of the sequel. Besides, Flanagan is currently occupied with other projects. Even if the renewal comes right away, the production may not begin until the end of 2021 or the beginning of 2022. The filming for the show usually takes around five to six months while the post-production process consumes a few more months. Thus, based on the current situation, the new episodes of The Haunting Of Bly Manor Season 3 may not arrive anytime before late 2022 or early 2023. Keep an eye on this corner for all future updates.

  • Akame ga Kill Season 2: [Latest Updates] Canceled Or Renewed? Will It Release in 2021?

    Akame ga Kill Season 2: [Latest Updates] Canceled Or Renewed? Will It Release in 2021?

    Back in 2014, Studio White Fox gifted us all sheer brilliance in the form of an anime series. Six years after its release, the demand for Akame ga Kill Season 2 is still sky-scraping. However, chances for the series’ return do not look very likely. Is there any hope for the sequel? Can fans save it? Here are all the details you need.

    Akame ga Kill was originally a shounen manga series written by Takahiro and illustrated by Tetsuya Tashiro. It began serialization back in March 2010 and continued for seven long years until its end in early 2017. Due to its immense popularity, the manga was picked up for an anime adaptation that aired 24 episodes between July and December 2014. Even since, fans of the show have been waiting for a sequel.

    Akame ga Kill Season 2

    Akame ga Kill Season 2: Renewal Updates!

    Over the years, the massive fanbase of the dark-fantasy anime has been trying to get Akame ga Kill Season 2 renewed. Unfortunately, none of their efforts have seemed to work on White Fox. The studio and other producers of the show have not confirmed the sequel yet. In fact, they have also refused to talk about its possibilities. Well, the main reason behind their coldness lies in the source material.

    The original Akame ga Kill manga series had already ended back in 2017. Unlike US television shows, Japanese anime are mostly adapted from a source material of a kind (mainly includes light novels, mangas, and video games). They eventually act as an advertisement for their original content. Hence, the future of such anime adaptations solely depends upon the presence of source material to promote. Sadly, since the manga series has already ended, it will be hard for Akame ga Kill Season 2 to find sponsors and gain revenue.

    Akame ga Kill Season 2

    Is There Any Hope For The Sequel?

    Well, there are a few shows that have survived despite the end of their source material. However, Akame ga Kill Season 2 might not get enough content from its manga. The first season of the show deviated a lot from the plot of its source material. Yet, its finale matches the ending of the manga. Hence, even though there are some manga volumes to adapt, they cannot contribute much to the new season.

    On the other hand, it’s quite rare for studios to develop an original story for an anime adaptation after the end of its source material. Hence, there isn’t much hope for the sequel unless fans make a solid move in its support.

    Akame ga Kill Season 2

    Can Fans Save It?

    Well, in today’s circumstances, there’s always support for a show if it has support from fans. Previously, many unexpected series have been revived due to heavy demand from fans. Hence, more and more people should sign petitions for the renewal of Akame ga Kill Season 2. You can also demand the green flag from the studio through various social media platforms.

    Once there are enough supporters of the sequel, White Fox might think about the renewal. If not White Fox, the anime can also be picked up by other studios or streaming platforms. Lately, Netflix has started giving second chances to shows with potential, to return for another run. Hence, fans do hold the power to save Akame ga Kill Season 2.

    What Will Be The Plot Of Akame ga Kill Season 2?

    Can it adapt Akame ga Kill! Zero (prequel manga) or Hinowa ga Crush! (sequel manga)?

    When anime adaptations don’t have content in their source material, they tend to adapt their spin-offs, prequels and sequels as well. Hence, Akame ga Kill Season 2 can also get content from these sources. The Akame ga Kill! Zero manga series came out back in July 2014 and acted as the prequel to the original story. As of today, around ten volumes of the Zero manga have been published, which will be enough to create a full anime season.

    However, since it’s a prequel series, it won’t continue the plot after the finale of Season 1. Besides, it will also have a different premise and characters. Hence, Akame ga Kill! Zero might not turn out to be the perfect choice for the second season.

    In that matter, the Hinowa ga Crush! manga series can be the most suitable choice for Akame ga Kill Season 2. It is the sequel manga series of the original manga, and its story is set after the things that happened in Season 1’s finale. Hence, it can be used to create the sequel of the anime. However, only five volumes of the manga have released as of August 2020. Therefore, fans might need to wait until there are enough volumes for adaptation.

    Akame ga Kill Season 2
    Hinowa ga Crush!

    The plot of Hinowa ga Crush! is set in a distant eastern island called Wakoku, where twenty-four countries are locked in a century-long war competing for its control. Hinowa, a young girl with extraordinary skills, joins the army but ends up facing the war’s wrath. Ten years after the disastrous battle, her daughter Hinata picks up what her mother wished to do.

    Akame ga Kill Season 3: Release Date

    As of now, the only hope for the anime’s return is dependant on the Hinowa go Crush! manga. Since only one or two manga volumes release per year, fans might have to wait for a while to get the green flag. Even if the renewal comes next year, White Fox might take a year to produce the anime sequel. Hence, a late-2022 or early-2023 release date seems the most likely. We will update this section once the studio announced the official premiere date.

  • Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5: Renewed Or Canceled? Everything To Know

As per that, Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5 will not return to the screens. However, fans of the critically acclaimed show are not ready to let it go. Can fans save it? Will it ever return?

    Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5: Cancelation

    Daron Nefcy’s magical girl comedy series is the first-ever Disney XD show created by a woman. Its first episode (On Disney XD) was also the most-watched animated series debut in the network’s history. Moreover, Star Vs The Force Of Evil received much appreciation from viewers and critics for all four seasons.

    For a show as popular as this one, Disney has canceled it way too early. The company confirmed that Season 4 would be the last installment of the series. They also asserted that the story might not come back through a film adaptation either. Ever since the fourth season ended, the creators have not talked about its revival yet. As of now, the only way to save Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5 is through support from fans.

    Can Fans Save The Fifth Season?

    Even after a year of its end, many Star fans have not left hope for the renewal of Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5. The massive following of the franchise is not allowing Disney to end the series just yet. Ever since it ended (in May 2019), millions of its fans have come together to demand another project, be it the fifth season or a film. As of today’s condition, the demands from fans seems to be going out of hand.

    Fans have signed plenty of petitions asking for a revival. In fact, one of those petitions already has over 150,000 signatures. On the other hand, thousands of fans have been using various social media platforms to demand another season. Well, the number of people supporting the show is pretty high and is likely to get noticed by Disney. Given the pressure, the production company might give in to the requests.

    Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5

    Voice Actor Adam McArthur (Marco) Supports The Series’ Return

    American actor Adam McArthur who played the leading character of Marco Diaz, supports the show’s return. In an interview with TVInsider, he talked about the possibilities of Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5. McArthur expressed that he’s been receiving requests on Twitter and mentioned that a petition has many signatures already. The actor adds that it would be silly for Disney and its executives to ignore such high numbers and the audience’s demand. Moreover, he truly believes that Star and Marco might return and that there’s a future for the show.

    Spoiler Alert!

    On the other hand, when asked the story of Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5, Adam expressed that he’d love to see Starco children and their future life together. He wants to fast-forward 15 years in the story and see how the characters and their life turns out to be.

    In the fourth season’s finale, Star’s home dimension Mewni and Earth merge into one big planet. Hence, the actor suggests that the new planet could serve as a jumping-off point for Star Vs The Force Season 5.

    Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5

    McArthur mentioned that it could be fun to watch a spin-off series (or a few episodes) featuring a 30-year-old version of Marco in the dimension called the Neverzone. The actor has previously said that his character has been very close to his heart. Hence, it will be interesting to see if any of the actor’s theories turn out to be true. As of now, Disney or any of the series’ producers have not talked about its future.

    Star Vs The Force Of Evil Season 5: Release Date

    Since its producers are yet to renew another season, the series might not return anytime sooner. However, if the fans manage the save Season 5, the production process might take a year or more. Also, as of now, the creator of Star Vs The Force Evil, Daron Nefcy, is already working on a Nickelodeon project. Hence, any work on the fifth installment might not begin until she’s available. As per current circumstances, any new episodes might not arrive before 2022 or 2023. We will update this section with an official release date once it is announced.

  • Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2: Renewed Or Canceled? Air Date

    Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2: Renewed Or Canceled? Air Date

    Grimgar, Ashes and Illusions is amongst one of the best Isekai animes of this decade. Despite its popularity, A-1 Pictures has not renewed the second season. Hence, even after four years of the anime’s release, fans are still waiting for Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2 to hit the screens. Will it ever return? What’s in its future? Here are the answers to all your burning questions.

    Hai to Genso no Gurimugaru, popularly known by many names, including Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash, originated as a light novel series back in 2013. Written by Ao Jūmonji and illustrated by Eiri Shirai, the LN series was an instant hit upon its release. As of today, it is still serializing and has a massive following of itself. Due to its popularity, the series was picked up for a manga adaptation in 2015 and an anime adaptation in 2016.

    Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2

    Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2: Renewal Status

    A-1 Pictures’ Isekai anime series aired on Japanese television between January and March 2016. Grimgar, Ashes And Illusions initially attracted only the readers of its source material. However, after a few episodes, the show acquired a following of its own. Funimation licensed its international streaming rights, which helped the series gain many more fans from around the globe.

    Yet, the studio has not announced the renewal of Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2. As per speculations, one of the main reasons behind the same could be related to the anime’s sales. It is said that the debut season did not manage to sell as well as the creators expected. Given that condition, the sequel can be risky for A-1 Pictures or any other studio that attempts to produce it.

    Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2

    Well, the emergence of international streaming platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video has brought a change in today’s situation of the anime industry. Anime series that have potential are given the opportunity to return, more often than before. Hence, even though Season 1 did not sell well, the sequel might still have a chance to be picked up by Netflix (or another platform). These streamers can easily provide better exposure to a show and a selective audience as well. As of now, fans must not lose hope for Hai to Genso no Gurimugaru Season 2.

    What Are The Chances Of Its Return?

    Unlike most US television shows, it’s common for anime to have a long hiatus between two seasons. In fact, a gap of five or six years is usual for several popular anime. In the past, some big names like One-Punch Man and Attack On Titan have taken well over four years to come back. Having said that, chances of the renewal of Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2 are still probable.

    Is There Enough Source Material?

    Fortunately, yes. A-1 Pictures still has plenty of source material to adapt the anime. The Grimgar LN series has a total of 16 published volumes as of today. The most recent one became a hit after its launch in July 2020. On the other hand, Grimgar’s debut season only consumed the plot of the first two volumes.

    Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2

    Even though Season 1’s finale followed an original story, Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2 might cover the next two (or more) LN volumes. That said, there surely is more than enough source material for a sequel.

    Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2: Release Date

    A-1 Pictures’ schedule for 2021 already looks busy. The studio is set to work on two new projects: 86 (based on an LN series by Asato Asato) anime series and Sword Art Online the Movie: Aria of A Starless Night. Well, given that the studio produces over five projects every year, Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2 still has a chance to fit in the schedule.

    As per the current status, the renewal of the sequel is yet to arrive. Hence, it is currently hard to predict a release date. However, even if the green flag comes this year, Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash Season 2 might not premiere anytime sooner than late 2021 or early 2022. We will update this section with relevant information and all the latest updates.

    Ouran High School Host Club Season 2: Canceled! But Why? Chances Of Reboot?

    Fourteen years is a long long time to wait for a show. Yet, fans are still waiting for the renewal of Ouran High School Host Club Season 2. The series was first released back in 2006 and won the hearts of millions of people worldwide. Over the years, you could’ve heard plenty of rumors about the sequel. However, we are here to provide you with facts about the future of your favorite anime and everything you need to know.

    Ouran High School Host Club Season 2 originated as a manga series, written and illustrated by Bisco Hatori. It began serialization in Hakusensha’s Lala magazine in September 2002 and ran for years until its end in 2010. During its run, it became one of the most appreciated shoujo mangas of that time. Hence, it was soon picked up for an anime adaptation in 2006. Due to the combined popularity of the manga and anime, the story was then adapted into a live-action TV series in 2011.

    Ouran High School Host Club Season 2: Renewed Or Canceled?

    As a matter of fact, the second season of Studio Bones’ highly anticipated show has not been renewed yet. However, neither is it canceled. Having said that, there is little to no hope for its return. Anime series very rarely return after more than five years. Whereas, Ouran High School will be touching fifteen years in a few months. Besides, neither of the producers of the first season is ready for the sequel.

    On the other hand, the Ouran High School manga series has already ended way back in 2010. This further decreases any chances for the anime’s return. Well, most of the anime adaptations are produced to act as an advertisement to their source material.

    Also, their primary source of revenue is dependant upon the sale of their respective manga series, light novel, or video game. They are generally canceled once there’s no run content to promote. Likewise, Ouran High School Host Club Season 2 now has no purpose to come back.

    The ONLY Way To Save The Anime

    Anime adaptations that are older than a decade usually return as reboot series rather than sequels. In that case, shows like Berserk, Fruits Basket, and Sailor Moon were revived even after two decades of their last release. Well, for older shows, reboot series are way better than sequels. They introduce the story to new viewers and also entertain the fans of the original show.

    Also, many production studios and streaming platforms are often interested in reboot series. However, such shows are required to seek their attention. Well, Ouran High School Host Club has quite an impressive profile. The 2006 anime received high ratings from both critics and fans on almost all rating platforms. Moreover, it was also a profitable project for Studio Bones.

    Most importantly, the anime still has a massive fan following. If there’s enough demand from fans, animation studios and streaming platforms like Netflix might show interest in the Ouran High School Host Club Reboot series. Well, this will take a lot of effort from fans. Signing petitions supporting the show’s return (or the renewal of Ouran High School Host Club) can help a lot. That said, this remains to be the only way to save the anime.

    Ouran High School Host Club Season 2: Release Date

    As of now, there’s no news of the renewal of Ouran High School Host Club Season 2. The chances for its return are low. However, if it ever gets renewed, the anime might not premiere any time sooner than 2022 or 2023. We will update this section with relevant information and the official release date once it’s announced.

    Highschool Of The Dead Season 2: [Latest Update] Possibilities in 2021

    After a decade long wait, fans of the anime are now demanding a solid answer. Will Highschool Of The Dead Season 2 ever release? Sadly, the chances for its return are pretty unlike. One of the main reasons behind the same lies in the abrupt ending of its source material. Yet, viewers are eager to know if there is still any hope for their favorite show. Hence, here are all the answers to your burning questions.

    Highschool Of The Dead was initially a manga series written by Daisuke Satō and illustrated by Shōji Satō. It debuted back in September 2006 and serialized until May 2013 in Fujimi Shobo’s Monthly Dragon Age. Due to its popularity, the series was picked up for an anime adaptation that aired in Japan between July and September 2010. Since then, fans of the franchise have been demanding to watch more of the story.

    Highschool Of The Dead Season 2: Renewed Or Canceled?

    As of 2020, Studio Madhouse or any other producer of the anime have not announced a sequel. In fact, they’ve already washed their hands off its production. Speculations say that the creators have asserted that they won’t be continuing the show anymore. Well, one of the main reasons behind the same could be the end of its source material.

    Apparently, anime adaptations act as an advertisement to their source material and are highly dependent upon them. As a result, they only survive until they have content to promote. Since they help in increasing the sales of their source material, the main source of revenue for these adaptations comes from it. Now that the Highschool Of The Dead manga has ended, Studio Madhouse might not want to pick up the anime’s second season.

    Is There Any Hope For Its Return?

    Recently, it was rumored that a US-based Anime Network will now air Highschool Of The Dead Season 2. It appears that the original creators have refused to continue the anime after a tragic tsunami and earthquake hit Japan, back in the day. Due to not having enough resources and appropriate time, Studio Madhouse had decided to drop the sequel.

    Well, both manga and anime series of HOTD have heavy international fan following. Moreover, the first season was aired by a bunch of foreign networks as well. Hence, the renewal of Highschool Of The Dead is now solely dependant on international streaming platforms and anime networks. Also, that remains to be the only hope for the series’ future. Yet, even if the show gets renewed, the creators will find it hard to get content for the adaptation.

    Highschool Of The Dead Season 2

    Is There Enough Source Material For Season 2?

    The HOTD manga serialized in Fujimi Shobo’s manga magazine since September 2006. However, it went on a long hiatus from 2008 to 2010. Besides, only one chapter released after 2011 (in April 2013), which was also the last chapter. On the other hand, the manga was released as seven tankōbon volumes between March 2007 and April 2011. Yet, the story of the manga was never completed.

    Sadly, after the death of mangaka Daisuke Satō, Highschool Of The Dead manga will always remain incomplete. Fujimi Shobo and Kadokawa can potentially hire another author to wrap up the story, yet, it’s very unlikely to happen.

    HOTD’s anime adaptation adapted the first four volumes of its source material. Hence, the potential producer of the anime now has only three volumes for Highschool Of The Dead Season 2. Having said that, the three volumes will neither complete the story nor be enough for a full season. As a result, the creators will have to look for a writer that can wrap up the original plot. Until then, fans will have to keep some patience. This article will be updated with latest and relevant information.

    Highschool Of The Dead Season 2: Release Date

    As of now, the chances for the anime’s return do not look much suitable. However, if the show gets a new producer (and writer), we will update this section with the official announcement. In that case, even if the renewal comes by the next year, Highschool Of The Dead Season 2 might not premiere anytime sooner than mid to late 2022.
