Arifureta Season 2 Winter 2022 Release, Trailer, and Latest Updates

A new trend to adapt light novels into anime is pretty common now but not all of them are worth the time. Yet, Arifureta: From Commonplace to World’s Strongest is one of those isekai anime that doesn’t disappoint the fans with an upcoming second season.

The unique storyline has hooked me up on the series as I keep on rooting for Hajime. I’m looking forward to the second season to see how Hajime fares in protecting his dear ones.

Season one faced a lot of issues with production quality. Hopefully, the change in studio and the main director for the second season fixed the pitfalls of the past.

1. Arifureta Season 2 Release Date

Arifureta season two is scheduled to be released in January 2022 on Funimation. The second season will probably have 13 episodes like the first season.
