The rest of this article will bring you all the known and unknown information related to a potential season two of World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman.

What do we know about Season 2 of World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman?
The first volume in the series was published by SB Creative on November 15, 2012, and 22 volumes were released when the series ended on June 14, 2018. The manga adaptation was published from April 26, 2014 to February 2016 in the magazine Comp Ace, and was collected in a total of four volumes. The first bound volume was published by Kadokawa Shoten on December 26, 2014, and two volumes were released on January 26, 2015.
The adaptation into an animated television series was announced in February 2014. It was produced by the Diomedéa studio with a production by Takayuki Inagaki and a screenplay by Hiroshi Yamaguchi. It originally aired from January 11, 2015 to March 29, 2015 on TV Tokyo; a total of 12 episodes have aired so far. Outside of Japan, the series is simulcast by Crunchyroll. What does all of this tell us about a potential second season?
As you can see, the future of the World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman anime is quite uncertain, but not because there’s no interest or lack of material. The series was fairly popular back in the day, but it’s been seven years and since anime series usually run while there’s a need to promote the written materials, the chances are very slim.
The light novel series ended four years ago and no new material has been released, which is why there is no need to promote anything else. Now, this doesn’t completely exclude the possibility of another season, but the chances are slimmer so 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 late 2023, but we’d have to get some confirmation on the future during 2022 or easily 2023; 2024 is also a strong possibility. 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 Season 2 of World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman be about?
At this moment, we do not know how far the second season of World Break: Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman could take us because we don’t know how many additional volumes of the light novel series the season could potentially adapt; it could be the whole series or just a part of it. Namely, due to a lack of information in general, we have absolutely no clue how far the second season might go if it even happens. What follows is an overview of the first season, episode by episode, so you can get a rough idea of what you could expect from the series.
- Moroha begins classes at Akane Academy because he inherited mystical powers from a past life. There he meets Satsuki and Shizuno, two girls who are instantly attracted to him for different reasons.
- Moroha and Shizuno join the Strikers. Satsuki is frustrated with her lack of skills, but one weekend she has to confront a metaphysical at the mall.
- Edward, one of the six S-rank rescuers, arrives in Japan. Meanwhile, Shizuno refuses to talk about her past life, causing friction between her and Moroha.
- When Shizuno’s brother tries to get her to study abroad, Moroha intervenes by revealing that he defeated the dreadnought class metaphysics unaided. This leads to a highly publicized duel between him and Sir Edward.
- The Strikers head to a small island for a summer training camp, and Satsuki takes it upon herself to become a faster and more capable rescuer. Meanwhile, the Head Six prepare for a meeting regarding Moroha’s proposed promotion to S-Rank.
- A gigantic metaphysical attack, as summer training camp draws to a close. Some members of the Head Six doubt Moroha’s abilities, seeing this attack as the perfect opportunity to force him to prove himself in battle.
- A new exchange student arrives from Russia and immediately confesses her feelings for Moroha. Moroha is accommodating, but Shizuno is suspicious.

- The emergence of a metaphysical delays Moroha’s departure from Russia. Hardly anyone suspects that a dark ghost from his past life has reappeared in Japan and is forcing everyone there to face him without his help. Metaphysics destroys everything in sight. Moraha is knowledgeable about metaphysics and recalls his two past lives when he found he had lost the two people he loved to metaphysics.
- The Saviors fight valiantly in a seemingly impossible battle against an exceptionally intelligent metaphysical. When Moroha finally enters the fray, he realizes it will take more than his powers to emerge victorious.
