For the last few years, the world is craving for some good vampire-werewolf drama. Well, animation studio P.A. Works produced one of the best additions to the genre in recent times. Fans liked the 2018 anime so much that they’re still expecting Sirius The Jaeger Season 2 to be back at the screens. Well, as of now, there’s not much update on the future of the series. Yet, there’s still hope for its return. Here’s everything you need to know.
Sirius The Jaeger anime series debuted in Japan back in July 2018. By December 2018, Netflix began to air the 12-episode show all around the globe. The anime was received well by the audience and critics alike. Besides, it also became commercially successful for its producers. Soon after its series finale, fans began to demand for a second installment. However, neither P.A. Works nor Netflix talked about the renewal since then.
Will ‘Sirius The Jaeger Season 2’ Ever Come Out?
Due to the current quarantine situation, fans have been rewatching their favorite shows. Netflix has become a huge source of entertainment for millions of people all around the globe. Hence, the viewership of Sirius The Jaeger Season 2 has also increased. Therefore, a large number of people are now demanding more episodes of the anime.
Several anime and TV shows have been delayed because of the Coronavirus outbreak. On the other hand, the production of some shows is also on a halt, and may not resume until the situation gets better. However, creators have been noticing the sudden popularity of series and movies during the quarantine. These projects can likely be picked up for sequels in the future. Well, we can only hope that Sirius The Jaeger Season 2 joins the list.
Besides, looking at the way Season 1 ended, it’s possible that the creators had already planned to continue the story. The finale episode had an open ending that can be easily continued in the future. Although the anime may take quite a while to return. Unlike most tv shows, anime series can take years in production. In fact, animes like One-Punch Man and Log Horizon have four to five-year-long gaps between seasons. As of now, it has been less than two years since Sirius The Jaeger debuted, so there’s still time for the series to return.
Can Netflix Renew The Second Season?
Unlike most other anime, Sirius The Jaeger is developed from an original story by Keigo Koyanagi. Hence, the series has no source material (light novel, manga or video game) to follow and promote. The main source of revenue for the show is its international viewership. Therefore, Netflix has a say in the renewal of Sirius The Jaeger Season 2. Fortunately, based on its popularity, the streamer might wave the green flag when the situation permits.
Well, since there’s no source material, writer Keigo Koyanagi may only begin writing the sequel once he gets a renewal. As of now, the story can go in any direction.
What Will Happen In The New Season? [Spoiler Alert]
The story of the popular anime is based in 1930 and centres around a group of Vampires that flee from China to Japan. A group of vampire hunters called Jaegers, follows the species to stop them from obtaining the Ark of Sirius.
