“Eminence in the shadows” prepares an event because in a few days some kind of big announcement about the franchise should take place… and the truth is that everything indicates that we will have the official reveal of the second season of the anime. If it already seemed logical given the success of the first season as well as the fact that there is enough material to continue adapting the work, now an insider assured that it will happen.
The Eminence in Shadow Anime Will Announce Season 2 Soon
So I leave you with everything the details that @oecuf0 advanced on the rumored ‘The Eminence in Shadow’ season 2 announcement:
- To start, what I find most surprising: the leak suggests that season 2 of The Eminence in Shadow will air in fall 2023. Indeed, not only will the revelation take place soon, but in addition it will not be necessary to wait a year to have an anime of the franchise again, something unusual today.
- Secondly, the insider also comments that on this occasion the duration of the second season will be shorter than that of the first: there will be a total of 12 episodes.
- The truth is, this decision makes more sense than recreating a 20-episode season for one very clear reason: the anime has already adapted 2 of the 5 volumes of the light novel.
- Obviously, The Eminence in Shadow light novel should continue to release volumes, and so time is given for the story to progress without the anime jumping excessively to the current story point.
The truth is that if it already seemed likely that the announcement of season 2 of “The Eminence in Shadow” was coming, it seems to me that this leak only “confirms” the fact. Obviously we still have to wait for the official announcement which I remember seems to be on February 22, 2023, when the anime’s live event will take place. Until then, all that remains is to be patient.
