Top Ten Animes with the Most Anticipated Sequels
A lot of anime we all loved might have seemed unfinished or was plain as a day incomplete. Which of these animes' sequel do you desire the most?
Claymore is a dark fantasy manga series written and illustrated by Norihiro Yagi. The series initially premiered in the now defunct Monthly Shōnen Jump in the May 2001 issue, but was moved to one of their sister magazines as the content was deemed too adult for Shōnen Jump’s target demographic. I was really tired of waiting and read the manga, seriously how long do they plan on keeping the fans waiting?
I think the manga just ended last year. I hope the rumors of a second season are true (No, ViVid Strike doesn't count as it was a spin-off, not an actual sequel/second season)...
I hope the second season isn't as terrible as the first.
This counts as an anime I guess. Hayao Miyazaki created seven volumes of the manga while the movie only loosely covers one.
The Devil Is a Part-Timer is a Japanese light novel series written by Satoshi Wagahara, with illustrations by Oniku. I was very disappointed with the ending until I heard that the novel is still on-going. So, though I don't know what to expect, I'm still looking forward to this one.
Great Teacher Onizuka, officially abbreviated as GTO, is a Japanese shōnen manga written and illustrated by Tooru Fujisawa. It was originally serialized in Weekly Shōnen Magazine from May 1997 to April 2002. Well, a lot of people don't know but the anime didn't cover all the arcs from the manga plus the graphics was definitely not impressive so a sequel should be launched, I guess.
The manga was completed a long time ago. The first season ended 5 years ago. When will we finally get a sequel?
Highschool of the Dead, known in Japan as Apocalyptic Academy: Highschool of the Dead, is a Japanese manga series written by Daisuke Satō and illustrated by Shōji Satō. Sad that the author died but it's surprising that no one stood up to finish it or at least release a sequel despite the massive popularity.
After the accident in which she lost her mother, 16-year-old Tooru moves in with her grandfather, but due to his home being renovated, is unable to continue living with him. Claiming she will find someone to stay with but also fearing the criticism of her family and not wanting to burden any of her friends, Tooru resorts to secretly living on her own in a tent in the woods.One night on her way back from work, she finds her tent buried underneath a landslide. Yuki Souma, the "prince" of her school, and his cousin Shigure Souma, a famous author, stumble across Tooru's situation and invite her to stay with them until her grandfather’s home renovations are complete. ...read more.
An anime covering Fruits Basket Another is yet to come.
Noragami (ノラガミ, lit. "Stray God") is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Adachitoka. It began serialization in Kodansha's Monthly Shōnen Magazine in December 2010. The series has been collected into twenty-four tankōbon volumes as of October 2021. A 12-episode anime television series adaptation by Bones aired from January to March 2014. A 13-episode second season, titled Noragami Aragoto, was broadcast from October 2015 to December 2015. So slow with the anime. Though the manga is halted for over a year, it has enough material for a sequel.
Hunter × Hunter is a manga franchise created by Yoshihiro Togashi. In 1999, Hunter × Hunter was adapted into a 62-episode anime television series produced by Nippon Animation and directed by Kazuhiro Furuhashi. The show premiered on Japan's Fuji TV and ran until 2001. Three separate original video animations (OVAs) totaling 30 episodes were subsequently produced by Nippon Animation and released in Japan from 2002 to 2004. A second anime television series by Madhouse aired on Nippon Television from October 2011 to September 2014, with two animated theatrical films released in 2013. There are also numerous audio albums, video games, musicals, and other media based on Hunter × Hunter. If they want another 100+ episode season then we should wait patiently.
Darker than Black, known in Japan as Darker than Black: The Black Contractor, is an anime television series created, directed and written by Tensai Okamura and animated by Bones. In 2007, the 26 episode anime named Darker Than Black: The Black Contractor aired with a huge commercial success. It was followed by the sequel Darker Than Black: Gemini of the Meteor in 2009.
The series also consisted of 5 Original Video Animation (OVAs) of which 4 of them (Darker Than Black: Origins) were used as a sequel to the first anime. The author continued the story with the manga Darker Than Black: Shikkoku no Hana, which was completed on 2011. It's low on this list because it actually is complete and incomplete at the same time. It has a second season but that is still kinda lacking in information and stuff so no one would mind a third season at all.
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny is an anime television series, a direct sequel to Mobile Suit Gundam SEED by Sunrise and the overall tenth installment in the Gundam franchise. It retains most of the staff from Gundam SEED, including Director Mitsuo Fukuda.
I wish there was a third season and adapted the rest of the manga because the ending left a lot to be desired.
Seven Arcs should do a movie that's a retelling of StrikerS next like they did with the original MGLN and A's.
