Parasyte the Maxim Season 2 release date

Studio Madhouse

It has been seven years, and the demand for Parasyte The Maxim Season 2 does not seem to be declining. Well, that is the impact of a story that is three decades old. But if this story is that popular and has such potential, why has there not been a renewal? What are the fans demanding? What is the production house doing? There is no need to fret as we have answered all your questions in the subheads to come ahead. The hope for a new season is alive. But only the fans can save the series from inevitable shelving. Keep reading further to find out how you can do so!

Also known as Kiseijū, this horror-science-fiction manga first came into existence in 1988. The manga soon rose to popularity because of the gore nature of its content. And it was quite a delight for avid manga readers to come across a fresh piece of content. Written by Hitoshi Iwaaki, this story has released a total of ten volumes. A spin-off under the name of Reversi also came out in 2018. But the one thing that fans continue to worry about is whether there will be a Parasyte The Maxim Season 2.

Parasyte The Maxim Season 2: Renewal Status!

The last of the latest season was in March 2015. None of the fans knew that they were looking at their favorite story for the last time. And this is where the title of Parasyte The Maxim was seen everywhere. The demand for the show was all around. However, the same was not the case with the announcement and news. Neither the creators nor any of the staff members have given away any details on the show’s return. The only string of hope is that the show has not been canceled.

All in all, Parasyte The Maxim Season 2 has not been renewed. But the fans must note that the season is yet to get a cancellation. So, which side is the story leaning more- renewal or cancelation? Here is an analysis of the same!

Will There Be A New Season?

There is no doubt about the fact that this anime continues to be one of the most popular banners of anime right now. And the overall reception and acceptance of Parasyte The Maxim was something unseen on a lot of the platforms. Over the last eight years, the popularity has only grown exponentially. The same can be seen in the official numbers on different platforms. As for MyAnimeList, the rating of the first season persists as high as 8.3 stars out of 10. And the fans will be shocked to know that more than a million users have given this rating.

Let’s talk about IMDb. On this review platform, the same rating can be seen at 8.3 stars out of 10. Such numbers are very high compared to the ones that are currently showing in the sixth or seventh seasons. Thus, it is a no-brainer that Parasyte The Maxim Season 2 will be an instant hit, and the makers will highly bank on the popularity of the sequel if and when it releases. It is only a matter of time before any kind of official update comes our way.

Parasyte The Maxim Season 2: Production Updates

As mentioned, Studio Madhouse was the company that animated the 24 episodes of the show. The episodes ran from October 9, 2014, to March 26, 2015. As for the company, Madhouse is undoubtedly one of the most trustable animation studios in the industry. Once signed for production, the success of a show is confirmed by the side of the makers. However, the one thing that this company is not known for is creating sequels and follow-up seasons.

Some of the notable single-season hits include Blue Lagoon, Death Note, One Punch Man, and Perfect Blue. This is the sole reason why most of the fans have settled with the fact that Parasyte The Maxim Season 2 will not be taking place anytime soon. Also, the story was a complete one on its own. Thus, to hope that it gets extended after this course would look like a stretch!

Parasyte The Maxim Season 2: Is There Enough Material?

For some background, the Kiseijū banner had been a popular text even before Madhouse brought the anime story to the limelight. Written by Hitoshi Iwaaki, the Kodansha story first came to light in 1988. The story went on for seven years. There are a total of ten volumes in the story, and this accounts for 64 chapters. And the anime of 24 episodes used all 64 chapters of the text, leaving nothing for Parasyte The Maxim Season 2. There exists one spin-off under the name of Parasyte Reversi.

This text came out in 2018. Maore Ohta is the writer and illustrator of the story. There are only eight volumes of this story. Readers of this text confirm that there is not enough material for an extensive season in this spin-off. This story is about the son of Hirokawa. But considering the studio that they have worked with, this anime will not come out of Madhouse anytime soon.

What Will Happen In The New Season?

As mentioned, the original plot of Parasyte The Maxim was complete on its own. Thus, the story of Parasyte The Maxim Season 2 could only be picked from Reversi Manga. Here, this plotline revolves around Mayor Hirokawa’s son, Tatsuki Hirokawa. This is a world where the struggle between humans and Parasites continues, much like the start of the invasion. While the first one dealt with the consistent back-and-forth for survival between Shinichi and Migi, another parallel suggestion comes forth.

This one is between two completely new characters. We find that Fukami, a trained veteran detective, is looking for the culprits of the mass murder that had recently taken place. This was the incident that had shaken all of humanity. The brutality of the crime was something that shifted the focus from the invasion to the gore nature of the murder. However, the one man who continued to be calm and composed during this entire time was Tatsuki, the son of the Mayor.

This is where the real story begins. The detective is quick to figure out that something is not right with the entire incident. Thus, another symbiotic relationship uproots when the investigation continues to unveil layer by layer. Parasyte The Maxim Season 2 will have a lot of banking potential if this story is released in the public domain. What are your thoughts about this spin-off story?

What Is Reddit Saying?

A lot of the fans agree that the story with the original characters and plotlines has come to an end. Thus, looking for a new story with the same characters would be nothing less of a cash grab. The only thing that can be done at this point in time will be a spin-off with newer characters. One user points out that new characters and a new setting within the same concept are the only plausible future of Parasyte The Maxim Season 2. The company would have to hire newer writers and formulate the new season from scratch.

One user points out that Boruto and Dragon Ball Super happen to be all ‘money talks’ and have no substance. Banking on nostalgia is certainly a pattern within the industry. However, in hindsight, all it has done is stretch stories for no good reason. Another one of the comments was that  Parasyte Reversi is the spin-off story that might get an adaptation in the long run. But that, too, has a lesser number of chapters for an entire season.

I hella finished it, I’m mad as hell ain’t a season 2 out rn. I’m still rewatching One Piece, but if you want a recommendation, Parasyte the maxim is heat.

Parasyte The Maxim Season 2: Release Date

The creator has made it quite clear that he is not working on anything surrounding the Parasyte banner. In addition to this, studio Madhouse already has a history of backing away from newer projects that require sequels and seasons after that. Thus, it shall be clear that Parasyte The Maxim Season 2 is not taking place anytime soon. In any case, fans would have to wait three years at the least to see a source material come to life and then see another anime getting created over it. For now, fans can only rewatch the last two seasons on Crunchyroll.

This section will be updated as soon as there is any more detail on this. And so, keep an eye on The Anime Daily to get all the intel of this right here.
