Netflix has been steadily expanding its catalog of original Japanese anime titles and live-action adaptations, such as Death Note and Cowboy Bebop, in recent years, and fans are eagerly anticipating new episodes of some of the service’s most popular shows, such as Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, Castlevania, Yasuke, and Kengan Ashura.
Kengan Ashura is a Netflix anime series based on the Japanese manga series by writers Yabako Sandrovich and artist Doraemon. The first season of the martial arts anime has 24 episodes, split into two parts, the first of which was published in June 2019 and the second in October of the same year.
Here’s all you need to know about the second season of Kengan Ashura.
Production Update for Kengan Ashura Season 2: Has Netflix confirmed that further episodes of this anime series will be released?
Because the plot of the Kengan Ashura anime series is still unfinished, fans of the manga series are anticipating a second season.
Netflix officially announced the release of Kengan Ashura Season 2 on March 23, 2022.

There are strong indications that Kengan Ashura Season 2 is now in the works. According to YouTuber Shrift, a voice actor for the English dub version reportedly responded to his question about the possibility of a third season, and the anonymous actor reportedly shared a photo of the new season of Kengan Ashura’s script or “table read,” but the actor didn’t provide any additional details about the production.
The upcoming episodes would most likely contain the Wakatsuki vs. Julius fight from the manga, according to the YouTuber. He also claims to have transcripts and screenshots of voice acting practice, but only his Patreon subscribers get access to these.
When will the next episodes of Kengan Ashura Season 2 be released?
Now that Kengan Ashura Season 2 has been announced, fresh episodes are expected to appear by Fall 2022 at the earliest. However, Netflix has not yet set a release date, but it is expected to arrive in 2023.
Given the popularity of the Kengan Ashura battle videos on YouTube, Netflix may have already confirmed a third season, so anticipate this information from Netflix and/or Larx Entertainment later this year.

Kengan Ashura Season 2 isn’t on the list of movies and TV series coming to Netflix in May 2022, so you’ll have to wait a little longer for new episodes.
What will be the plot of the next episodes of Kengan Ashura Season 2?
Manager Kazuo Yamashita is assigned with managing the protagonist Ohma Tokita in the Kengan Ashura anime, who is tasked with winning an annual martial arts competition held by some of Japan’s economic leaders. Ohma beats Raian, a Kure clan assassin, in the final episode of Kengan Ashura Season 1.
As Ohma progresses to the third round, Kengan Ashura Season 2 is likely to continue the tournament.
We may be able to guess where the third season will start up as Kengan Ashura is based on the manga series by writers Yabako Sandrovich and illustrator Daromeon. Kengan Ashura Season 1’s conclusion adapts Chapter 135 of the original manga series, which has a total of 236 chapters, so there’s still a lot to cover. There’s also a Kengan Omega manga series in the works, so Netflix is likely to continue the plot in future episodes.
While Kengan Omega introduces a new Kengan Association vs. Purgatory event, Kengan Ashura Season 2 will almost certainly continue the existing tournament before adopting the sequel series. Hopefully, Netflix will announce the Kengan Omega anime adaptations shortly. The spectacular battles that take place in the Kengan Association vs. Purgatory competition would be fascinating to see.
Currently, the manga series’ plot revolves around a battle against The Worm, an evil criminal organization comprised of some of the world’s most powerful warriors. The fight between Narushima Koga and Xia Ji has been the focus of recent chapters.
For the time being, the substance of Kengan Ashura Season 2 is still a rumor, but Netflix is expected to release some information about the following season this year.
Who will play the characters in Kengan Ashura Season 2?
Tatsuhisa Suzuki, a Japanese voice actor, is scheduled to reprise his role as Tokita Ohma. Among his previous roles, he played the protagonist in Masaaki Yuasa’s Kick-Heart as well as other characters in many Pokemon animated series. Ohma is portrayed by Kaiji Tang, who is most known for playing Satoru Gojou, the formidable tutor in Jujutsu Kaisen, and the wicked Sanemi Shinazugawa in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba the Movie: Mugen Train, among other roles.
Cho is portrayed by Kazuo Yamashita in the Japanese version, and the salaryman is performed by Keith Silverstein in the English version.
According to the Inquirer, Keiji Fujiwara, a prolific voice actor who gave the voice of Tokita, Ohma’s surrogate father, died in April 2020 due to cancer, thus if Kengan Ashura returns for Season 2, they would most likely have to find another actor to replace him.

When will Netflix release the trailer for Kengan Ashura Season 2?
Now that Season 2 of Kengan Ashura has been confirmed, Netflix is expected to release the first teaser in 2022 or early 2023 at the earliest. For the time being, however, until Netflix releases an official release date, this is just guesswork.
