Seirei Gensouki Spirit Chronicles originally began as a novel series by author Yuri Kitayama. The novel series has ten volumes in total. After a successful light novel anthology release, the franchise opted for a manga launch. Hobby Japan’s Comic Fire magazine launched the manga in October 2018. Later in 2021, TMS Entertainment announced to be working on the anime project. The first episode came out on July 6, 2021. Now, fans look forward to the second season of the venture.
Seirei Gensouki Spirit Chronicles Season 2: Renewal Details
For the time being, there has been no official news from the makers’ side. Neither the director nor the production company has revealed much about the renewal of the second season. But the same remains true for the cancellation of the show. Usually, the news of cancellation is never publicly announced. Like this, the hopes of renewal remain high. However, for Seirei Gensouki Spirit Chronicles Season 2, the reception also looks green in terms of ratings hence the renewal seems plausible.
The pilot season of the series has been rated a high 7.6 on IMDb. Moreover, MyAnimeList displays a good rating of 7.03 stars. Thus, the renewal call of the second season will not be a tough decision for the studio. On top of that, TMS Entertainment is known to create lengthy shows in the past.
Manga Compared To Anime
The Seirei Gensouki Spirit Chronicles anime has been adapted from the first manga of the anthology. After that, two more parts came out as the author’s collaboration with various illustrators and magazines. This implies that there is already plenty of source material for the anime to adapt a story from. Besides, the first season of the series adapted its twelve episodes till the fifth volume of the first manga.
This leaves two more volumes to cover in the next season. After that, the story will jump to the second manga to adapt from the sequel text. Even the second manga contains seven parts on its own. Thus, the source material is not a concerning matter for the renewal.
Seirei Gensouki Spirit Chronicles Season 2: Release Date
For now, there has been no official confirmation on the release of Seirei Gensouki Spirit Chronicles Season 2. Moreover, one can judge under the assumption that the sequel is yet to undergo production. Animating a twelve-episode roughly takes a year of time. Thus, if the second season begins manufacturing this year itself, fans can expect to see a trailer in a year’s time. Moreover, the anime may find the release slate in the Winter of 2022.
