One of the best sci-fi anime of all times is Darwin’s Game. In 2012, FLIPFLOPs wrote and drew a manga-style screenplay. Produced by the Nexus animation studio, the anime adaptation premiered on January 3, 2020. The anime was produced by the Japanese studio Nexus, which has only been operating for a few years but has already shown that it can produce quality work. The studio is well-known to us because of the classic TV show Chivalry of the Failed Knight. Aniplex of America licensed the anime, and it was available on Crunchyroll and Funimation throughout the first season’s run of 11 episodes. It may also be streamed on Hulu and Netflix. This allowed the famous anime to reach viewers all over the globe. There has been a long wait since the first season ended, and now fans are apprehensive about what will happen in season two. Is there going to be a second season?
Despite reports to the contrary, the show has not been picked up for a second season and will not succeed in drawing in viewers. At this time (September 5, 2022), there has been no official word on whether or not the show would be canceled, but it also has not been renewed for a second season. FLIPFLOPS, Studio Nexus, and the manga’s publisher, Akita Shoten, are all remaining silent on the next season. There has been no official word about the next season, but fans may still make educated guesses. Certain criteria are used to greenlight fresh seasons of anime. Take a look at these primary considerations with me.
Manga updates
As was established from the outset, FLIPFLOPs adapted the manga from which the anime was derived. On December 12, 2012, the first episode of the manga aired, and it is still being shown to this day. Twenty-six volumes of the manga have appeared in the June 8, 2022 issue of Bessatsu Shnen Champion magazine. The continuance of the manga series is crucial for a variety of reasons, including the availability of source materials and the potential promotional value of the notion of a new season.
When it comes to plot and visuals, anime is very true to the manga. Thirty chapters of the manga were adapted for the first season. It’s somewhere around volume eight. This is great news since it means the manga can generate content for at least a second season, if not more. Furthermore, the manga series has not reached its conclusion, so there will be further material to draw from in the future.
