The official website for Rieko Hinata and Akihiro Yamada’s The Fire Hunter series revealed a main visual and teaser video for the show’s second season. The new season will premiere in January 2024.

The main visual featuring Touko and Koushi with the words “I still want to touch this world” has also been released.

In the first season’s finale, we saw Akira and Touko insist on finding the Flickering Flame, causing Hibana to attack them.
Enraged at their defiance, Hibana blew everybody into the river. Fortunately, Touko and Temari were saved by Hinako. Later, One of the Fiends attacks Touko, which seems to awaken hidden combat instincts within her, and she kills the Fiend with Haijuu’s scythe.
The story will get even more interesting this season, and you should add this show to your watchlist.
