What Anime Deserves a New Season/Sequel (and why)?

2827

I'd nominate Darker than Black. Although it's 2nd season wasn't seen as a huge success, I think plot wise it still provides a good setup for a potential 3rd season. It seems like they were even planning on one, but it got put on the back burner/cancelled.

What do you guys think?

Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin (Nanana Ryuugajou's Treasures) because why not ? Just kidding.

I highly demand a second season for this because there's a lot of things that haven't been explained and a lot of things that needs to be shown. Like, who are all the Great 7 and how was Nanana murdered in that room. And of course, MORE TREASURE HUNTING !!!

  I guess that season was only meant to be an advertisement for the light novels, its somewhat the same as for the haruhi anime, which deserves also a sequel, but now they made an anime about the spin-off light novel
  Aethyx 11y
  Well that's disappointing, considering how interesting and exciting Nanana is. :/
  Orikou 11y
  I totally agree, I really liked that show and it was too short and ended way too early in the story. It was funny and a great concept, sow we just need to keep our hopes up :)

Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun. And since the manga is finished, I think they can finish the series as an anime, too.

  Soul Eater for the same reason as well

  Pretty self explanatory, I call upon Hataraku Maou-Sama!, that anime really needs a sequel, what do you guys think needs a sequel?

I'd give out some :
- MM!
- Saikin, Imouto no Yousu ga Chotto Okashiinda ga.
- Hagure Yuusha no Estetica
- Maoyuu Maou Yuusha
- Seitokai Yakuindomo ( Who wouldn't want a third sequel? )
- Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou ( The laughs... the fucking laughs )
- Nichijou ( It was long enough, but it didn't really showcase every chapter possible, should get a sequel of 13 maybe? just to get to the manga chapters point )
- Daelia 10y
  Can't agree more.
- Sukini 10y
  Seitokai Yakuindomo and Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou - totally agree! lol

Guin Saga
The anime barely scratches the surface of this epic series.

Glass Mask
The anime was just getting to the best part when it ended. Although the manga is slowly getting translated, I much prefer the character designs in the anime.

Zipang
There are still 36 volumes that could be adapted. Sadly, the manga is not getting translated. I want more of this time-travel thriller!

Five Star Stories
The anime only covers the first volume of the manga. People who only watch the anime have no idea how grand the story is. It would make one epic anime series.

I really wish we could have gotten a second season of Darker than Black.
And at least we got a movie for Psycho-Pass, but a second season would have been really cool, too.

  WHERE is the "joke?" Posting BLATANTLY false information, knowing SOMEONE will take it at face-value (for YOUR sake) & then "calling" them on it qualifies as a "joke?"
  ReBuggy 10y
  It's not posting blatantly false information in hopes that someone will call me on it. It's denying the existence of something as a way to say "this was really, really bad and I'm going to pretend it doesn't exist."
  
  But the real joke here is how you have no idea how to use caps lock or quotation marks properly and have instead invented your own style guide, making you look like a tool and a complete idiot to anyone who reads anything you write.
  Riodurow 10y
  You should DISCONTINUE that kind of "joke," it is NOT HELPFUL. @origamimissile probably thought that YOU GENUINELY THOUGHT that DARKER THAN BLACK and PSYCHO-PASS had only one season - - - he was being HELPFUL.
  For future reference: SNARKY comments should be denoted by ITALICS.
  
  Post Scriptum: COOL DOWN.

Spice and Wolf could use 1000000000 more sequels.
I'd love to see more of Toradora!
And Servant x Service could use one too.

  I agree, but I'd love to just see more of the two of them. I loved their characters so much.

No Game No Life because they teased the shit out of us on the last episode. The anime would be incomplete w/o a second season.
And Trinity Seven. I don't even like it plot-wise but plot-wise, it was enjoyable. Also ya the mc hasn't completed his goal yet either. I just want more of its great art style, music, and tits.

Edit: There's always this thread you know
- TheTrueSaiyan 10y
  Seriously with No Game No Life instead of bring the season to a close they practically said "I know this is the last episode but this is what would happen if we continued "
- Removed 10y
  Someone said waiting for NGNL S2 is like waiting for Half-Life 3 to come out.
  
  I wouldn't mind if NGNL didn't get a second season... if it had a different ending. But with the ending we got... as you said already, it needs another season otherwise it's incomplete.
Dextielle 10y
I'm really hoping for some more Blood Lad. The manga only has 5 volumes so far but I'm hoping they'll pick it up again in the near future.

I would love to see more Toradora! and Bunny Drop . Those are probably the two I really want. The third would have been Saekano but that's already happening so Yea! :D
- JellySnake 10y
  Considering how horrifying the second half of the Usagi Drop manga is, I doubt anyone wants to make a sequel to the anime.
  Daelia 10y
  Wait, Saekano is getting a sequel? my life is complete.
  Sky 10y
  Really? Well that's a shame... I guess I'll just go read the manga and see what happens
- Removed 10y
  Unfortunately, a sequel to Toradora! is extremely unlikely. The LN's finished and J.C. Staff doesn't have any more material to adapt.
  I'm pretty satisfied with how it concluded - IMO it should just remain as it is now.
  
  Moving on from that - I'm hyped for the sequel to Saekano too! :)
ChromeEagle 10y
This and this.
Sub 10y
HMS are probably the series whose sequel I would most appreciate as well. From the series I've rated with a 7 or higher, I also wouldn't mind some more Baccano. If there are some that would require a sequel to conclude the issues they've brought up in the end, whether I personally liked them or not, it would be Haganai Next and Kannagi from what I've seen.

That said, I prefer new settings over continuations of previous ones, no matter how good they are. So, I'm way more for some good new series over sequels of previous good ones.
- Daelia 10y
  I understand where you are coming from, but cliffhangers are never nice.
Bluewind 10y
I think I would really like it if they had a sequel to...
1. White Album 2
2. No Game No Life
3. Witchcraft Works
4. Black Bullet
5. Mekakucity Actors
6. The Devil Is a Part-Timer
7. The Comic Artist and His Assistants
8. One Week Friends
9. Trinity 7
I also wish that they would continue Katekyo Hitman Reborn, as well as Magi... :(

- No Game No Life
- Yamada-kun and the 7 Witches
- Magic Kaito 1412
- Hataraku Maou-sama
- Hunter x Hunter
- Yona of the Dawn
- Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun
Just my personal opinion. I'm not gonna rank them though. I don't think HxH or MK1412 will get a sequel in a LONG time. I doubt Maou-sama is gonna get one either, and about a bajillion people have already told me that No Game No Life will never get a second season which is really disappointing.

I do think that GSNK will get a season 2 (I really hope that it gets a season 2, because it's honestly one of the funniest anime's I've seen in my life. Maou-sama and GSNK rank the same on the funniest ones.) and I also think that Yona might get a season 2 and I really hope it does. I think maybe Yamada-kun might get one as well? It didn't get bad ratings, and it was really good in my opinion. I need Shiraishi back, and the opening was sweet.
- Syracusa 10y
  Totally agree with everything, but i will never stop dreaming with the day when i will see HxH again!
DopplerY 10y
Totally agree that Hataraku Maou-Sama!, No Game No Life and Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru should have sequels but I would also like to see more of Toaru Kagaku no Railgun, though it is a two season series and it has a parent anime also with 2 seasons.

Oh! and I would love to see a second season of Shirobako
WanaDance 10y
I'd love to see another Full Metal Panic!. I know that they have enough novel content to make it happen, so it'd be a nice surprise.
Deoran 10y
I second wanting a sequel to MM! One of the few ecchi shows I enjoyed, cause of it's humor, characters and story.
We need a Hataraku Maou-Sama! second season too.

Apart from that, a sequel to:
Seikai no Senki III - I really need them to adapt the 4th and 5th light novel.
Akatuski no Yona - I am still waiting for my S2, make it happen.
Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun
Shirobako - I am in the middle of watching this, but I am pretty sure I would want more after I finish it.
- lunatix 10y
  I agree with akastuki no yona, and in my opinion they might do another season because the anime is just uncomplete.
lunatix 10y
I haven't seen it mentioned, but Chihayafuru needs a 3rd season, I would be really sad if it doesn't get a 3rd season actualy, everything was pretty cool in this anime and it litteraly didn't ended ! (I think this anime was quite popular too ...)

Hey, where is Elfen Lied?
- ChromeEagle 10y
  Well, Elfen Lied is lacking a presence here simply because it's 11 years old. But aside from that entirely, I think it goes without saying that it had a beautifully-scripted ending, and its impact would only be diminished if the series were to receive an extension.
  
  It truly was open to interpretation done right.
  Chuzz 10y
  Well, I know what you mean, but: why to be so cold? I don't know how to feel about "open to interpretation". It's a love-hate relation xD
  ChromeEagle 10y
  Elfen Lied spoilers follow
  
  The music box was tied to Lucy. This connection was made very strong through the use of flashbacks. The grandfather clock was tied to Nyuu, as it was the one thing she was often seen tinkering with while staying at Kouta's house; also worth a mention that it was broken until the very end. The sudden stop of the music box represented the death of Lucy (who'd recently "shed her horns" in the firefight), and the chiming of the clock represented the birth (and sustained life) of Nyuu. Who is seen standing at the gate in the last few seconds? No one other than Nyuu. It was all open for speculation, but the symbolism directs us to a rather definite--and positive--conclusion. This is why I love it so.
  Chuzz 10y
  You get a great point. I've hear that theory and I hope it will be a fact. But the "open to interpretation" is often fighting with that hope T.T
