The anime series has yet to confirm its second season as of yet, but it seems almost assured considering how big the property has become. Though we couldn’t calculate how many seasons the anime would be if it stuck strictly to the manga, we would have to imagine that it would be around two to three tops. The manga may be coming to an end, but perhaps a sequel series or spin-off will emerge that will focus on a different character that we’ve come to know over the course of the series.
Can you believe that Kimetsu no Yaiba is coming to an end? Do you think the series will see a sequel? Feel free to let us know in the comments!
