The first season definitely left room for more adventures but will Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash season 2 ever happen? Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash is based on a novel series by author Ao Jūmonji, and follows a group of people who find themselves stranded in a strange fantasy land with no memory of their past lives. They also find the land of Grimgar is populated with monsters, so they train to become goblin slayers.
Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash has plenty of action and beautiful artwork, but what really drew fans to the show was the surprisingly deep story character development. The show could be a slow burn at times, which made for a nice contrast to more action heavy anime shows. The series was produced by A-1 Pictures, who also worked on projects such as Sword Art Online and Persona 5: The Animation.
The first season ended with plenty of room for the story to continue but will Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash receive a season 2?
While the show has received good reviews, the second season of Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash hasn't been officially confirmed yet. Season 1 ended in 2016 and there hasn't been much in the way of movement on another series. Sadly, there are many examples of anime series that last one season, only for the fate of a second series to be left in limbo for years. That said, given the popularity of Grimgar, there's a decent chance it will return.
Sadly, since its unknown if Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash season 2 is even happening, there's no word on a potential release date. Some reports suggest the series is in production and could be ready for late 2019, but with no confirmation from A-1 Pictures, this should be treated as a rumor for now.
In between slaying goblins and assorted creatures, the first series found the main characters trying to get used to the strange world of Grimgar. They also had to deal with the trauma over the death of team leader Manato. By the end of season 1, they had made peace with their friend's demise and learned to work together as a team.
Grimgar Of Fantasy And Ash season 2 would likely draw further inspiration from the novel series, shedding some more light on how the main characters ended up in Grimgar in the first place, while Haruhiro struggles to grow into the leadership role.
