To Shimamura from Adachi Season 2 has been eagerly awaited after the success of seasons 1 and 1. Check out the latest information about Naruto: Shippuden: Second Season.
Tezuka Productions’ Adachi to Shimamura is a yuri slice-of-life anime. Based on Hitomi Iruma’s novels, Sakura Adachi is a high school student who regularly skips class to pass the time by sitting upstairs in the school gym.
It so happens that she meets Hougetsu Shimamura, a fellow absentee student. Ping-pong becomes their first pastime, and they end up spending a lot of time together as a result.
They both return to school at some point. As a result of these encounters, Adachi finds it difficult to communicate her true sentiments to Shimamura, who views Adachi as nothing more than a buddy.
Fans have been wondering since the anime’s first season ended in October 2020 whether season 2 will be released.
Adachi to Shimamura: Is there enough content for a second season?
Today, most anime is produced to adapt to another medium, such as manga, light novels, or video games.
Adachi To Shimamura’s inspiration came from a light novel. As a result, we’ll have to see how many volumes are currently available, how many have been adapted in the previous season, and whether or not the series is still ongoing. As with Redo of Healer Season 2, an ongoing series has a better possibility of earning a sequel.
Adachi To Shimamura has nine light novel volumes available in Japan right now. Rui Tsukiyo’s light novel series is still running strong, with new books coming out roughly every 6-8 months, with the final one on October 10, 2020.
There is good news for the anime series with the active distribution of the novel. In addition, a manga adaptation by Mani was published in Square Enix’s Gangan Online Magazine in April 2016 and is now available there as well.
Adachi To Shimamura’s first season adapted the first four volumes, leaving us with enough substance for a second 12-episode season from the remaining five volumes.
The conclusion is that there are still five volumes to be adapted, which means there is enough content for another one-cour season at this point. Because the series is still active, there’s a good potential for a sequel.
Market Share and Attractiveness
After reading this part, you’ll have a better idea of whether or not the anime was even lucrative for the production committee. The Blu-ray, DVD, and light book sales will be examined in this regard.
Before you go any further, you should know that the vast majority of anime produced nowadays is done to help promote and increase the sales of the original work (in this case, a light novel).
Light novel and merchandise sales produce the majority of their revenue, with advertising payments, internet streaming licensing, and Blu-ray sales providing the remainder.
When can we expect the second season of Adachi to Shimamura to air?
This anime has yet to be formally renewed for a second season. However, it will most likely run in the second half of 2023 since season 1 ran from October 9 to December 25, and it generally takes 1-2 years to produce a new season.
Considering that no official announcements have been made yet, readers should view this as pure conjecture. Watch this area, as we’ll let you know when something concrete is announced. There will be an announcement shortly.
