Btooom is the adaptation of author and illustrator Junya Inoue’s popular manga novel of the same name. The sci-fi manga aptly titled Btooom! made its debut in the manga stores on 3rd July 2009.
Additionally, nearly three years later, the first season of the anime series was premiered on 4th October 2012. The first season of the anime version was adapted from the first 50 chapters of the manga novel.
Regardless of many versions of Btooom made available to the fans they are still waiting and holding their breaths for the release of Btooom Season 2 which still hasn’t been confirmed yet.
Japanese anime studio Madhouse produced the first season of Btooom and aired their finale episode of the season on 20th December 2012. The first season consisted of twelve episodes all of them being aired on Tokyo MX.
The anime series quickly gained viewers and fans from all around the world which in hindsight contributed towards the anime series getting their own version of battle royale game with the same name. The game was officially released in Japan in February of 2017 and was pre-owned similarly to all the other well-known battle royale games such as Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) and of course Fortnite.
Initially, the anime series was only available and limited to Japan but following its success and growing strong fanbase, Btooom was also premiered on Crunchyroll. They also added English subtitles to make it easier for the international audience of the anime series.
Btooom Season 2: Release Date | Is it happening anytime soon?
Btooom came with their first season back in October of 2012 and since then many rumors had been going around regarding the possibility of Btooom Season 2 making a comeback.
The demand for Btooom Season 2 by the fans took a new and strong turn in 2018 when the official manga novel Btooom! finally published their final chapter and ended the series. However, the manga extended a sort of goodwill to the reads by providing them with two conclusions.
It’s June 2021 now and there is still no news or announcement by the producers or the creators about the release date of Btooom Season 2.
However, not all is lost for the waiting fans and they still don’t have to be disappointed because even though the manga series ended it left behind an ample amount of source material for Btooom Season 2.
Now all that is left is for the producers to listen to our pleas and work on Btooom Season 2. But we still have no statements from the producers about the possible happening of Btooom Season 2.
Moreover, if Btooom Season 2 does release then we can assume that it will air sometime during next year i.e. 2022 or maybe 2023.
