The first season premiered in 2021, and in this article, we are going to tell you whether you can expect the second season of RE-MAIN anytime soon.

Editor’s Note: This post was updated in January 2024. Currently, there is no news regarding the continuation of RE-MAIN.

Will RE-MAIN Season 2 happen?

The series, announced in March 2021, is brought to life by MAPPA studio, led by director Kiyoshi Matsuda and head writer/director Masafumi Nishida. Original character designs are crafted by Aori Fujika, adapted for animation by Shiho Tanaka. Kana Utatane provides the musical composition. Airing from July 4, 2021, to October 3, 2021, on TV Asahi in the NUMAnimation slot, the series is simulcast in the United States via Crunchyroll. The opening credits feature Enhypen’s “Forget Me Not,” and the ending credits showcase Shugo Nakamura’s “Kowareta Sekai no Byōshin wa.” While the show gained popularity, details about its future remain elusive.

As you can see, the future of the RE-MAIN anime is quite uncertain, but not because there’s no interest. The series was fairly popular, and we’ll just have to see whether there is enough interest for a continuation to make any proper predictions about the potential continuation of the series. The first season received solid reviews, but we simply don’t know enough to make any predictions on the show’s future.

In any case, the earliest we could see a potential second season is 2025, but we’d have to get some confirmation on the future during 2024 or early 2025. The fans are demanding a new season, but we’ll just have to see how it goes; as far as things stand now, a cancelation has not been confirmed, but we cannot rule it out either.

What could be the plot of RE-MAIN Season 2?

At this moment, we have absolutely no idea about the content of a potential second season of RE-MAIN. Why? Well, as we’ve said, RE-MAIN is an original anime series and is, thus, not based on any pre-published material. This means that the only source of the story is the anime series, so we don’t have anything to work with.
