Kengan Ashura’s Continuous Legacy
It’s not every day that a series gets to continue its captivating story, especially when it’s as epic as the world of Kengan Ashura. Fans of the series are surely rejoicing. Just when everyone was gearing up for the debut of Kengan Ashura season 2 part 1, Netflix dropped another bombshell: Season 2 part 2 is on the horizon and is all set to premiere in 2024.
Release Dynamics: Early 2024 Predicted
With the first part of the second season coming out on September 21, 2023, it’s an interesting game of patience and excitement for anime enthusiasts. Netflix, known for its strategic releases especially with anime, usually maintains a gap of about three to six months between two cours of a single anime season. Taking this into account, and with the September debut of the first part, fans might just be ushered into the new year with the continuation of this thrilling series.
Given Netflix’s consistent patterns with releases of celebrated anime series like Record of Ragnarok and Baki, it’s only logical to assume an early 2024 release for Kengan Ashura season 2 part 2. The pacing makes perfect sense, especially when considering the season’s expected climax, the finals of the Kengan Annihilation Tournament and the story’s grand conclusion. The anticipation is surely going to be palpable.
Metal Beats to Usher in the New Era
Adding to the excitement, metal band SiM will infuse some adrenaline into the series with their new opening theme song titled “RED”. This track has already built some buzz with its early screening at TOHO Cinemas Roppongi Hills in Tokyo earlier this month. And if that doesn’t send shivers down your spine, maybe the series’ legacy will.
A Brief Walk Down Memory Lane
Kengan Ashura first graced our screens on Netflix in July 2019. Following its success, the second part of the first season was quickly released in October of the same year. The journey of the series from its world premiere at the Anime Expo in July 2018 to its anime adaptation is an interesting tale, especially when one discovers it was the result of a fan voting contest in 2015.
Originally crafted as a manga by the talented duo, author Yabako Sandrovich and illustrator Daromeon, Kengan Ashura began its journey on the Manga ONE app in 2012, concluding in August 2018. But the tale didn’t end there. A sequel arc, Kengan Omega, surfaced in January 2019, adding another layer to the series’ rich history.
