The series will be adapted into 25 episodes and include new characters. A key visual for the second season has also been revealed.Kyoukai no Rinne is a manga written by Rumiko Takahashi which began publishing in April 2009. The series runs in Weekly Shounen Sunday magazine and currently has 26 volumes in print. The manga's 27th volume will be published on September 18, 2015. Kyoukai no Rinne had already received a 25-episode TV anime adaptation for Spring 2015, and the final episode of the first season will air on September 19, 2015. Synopsis As a child, Sakura Mamiya mysteriously disappeared in the woods behind her grandma's home. She returned safe and sound, but since then, she has had the power to see ghosts. Now a teenager, she just wishes the ghosts would leave her alone! At school, the desk next to Sakura's has been empty since the start of the school year. Then one day, her always-absent classmate shows up, and he's far more than what he seems! (Source: MU, edited) Source: NHK Anime Blog Kyoukai no Rinne (TV) 2nd Season on MAL |

| Wow. Didn't realise this series was popular enough to get a season 2. |
 |
| Great news. This show is underrated and another season is most welcoming. There's plenty to adapt from the manga still for a 2 cour. Spring will be fun again. |
|
| Oh dang I need to finish season 1 first.. |
| And here I was just thinking of picking up the manga after it finished. Woo, more Mamiya Sakura. |
 |
| It will probably be no different to the first season, which has started to get seriously boring now, so I really don't see the point. Besides, is it even remotely popular to justify a sequel? |
| I knew 25 episodes was to short. |
 |
| Wow brains base can make a s2 for this shit but they couldn't for so many other great shows... |
| :3 |

| No thank you. i want Ranma 1/2 will get anime remake instead. |
| Do you play Azure Lane? Then please join my fanclub https://myanimelist.net/clubs.php?cid=74907 |
| Certainly wasn't expecting a sequel from this. I suppose I'll watch it; the first season isn't anything spectacular but it wasn't exactly bad. |
| Insert philosophical quote or exceptional picture here. |
| This series I skipped for some random reason a season ago. I should put on my watch list now. |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |

 The humor in this show is stellar and subtle and ridiculous and I was so sad it was over soon and now it's not and Hallelujah!!! |
 |
| Thank you so much NHK! Seriously, I can't wait for this. Some of the best characters will appear in that season. I wonder what else they will adapt in that season, there is more than enough material after all. |
| I was hoping for anime sequel and it came true! Yay! There are so many important supportive characters that needs to be appeared. |

| This having a season two really? I know her work boosted from the anime in the past but I didn't think it would be that popular. |
| added the fourth most popular anime onto this site |
| RINNE can be surprisingly funny and endearing when it wants to be. I'd say it's definitely deserving of a 2nd season. You could do a lot worse, honestly. Supposedly, the disc sales are not that great, but since it's NHK, it doesn't really matter. Which also gives me hope for a 3rd season of Baby Steps! |
| OH WHAT!? YYYYEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS MORE RUMIKO YEAH? |
| Well I dropped the first season after 13 episodes. Good news for the fans I guess, my friend will be really happy. |

cipheron said: alpha_shadow said: Wow brains base can make a s2 for this shit but they couldn't for so many other great shows... Well they only have a single production unit. Which means they can only make one show at a time. Giving one thing a sequel means never having made another thing in the first place. Yes, they have many great shows that could have used sequels. But if each of those shows went for three seasons, 2/3rds of the shows we have now would never have been created. This is the same deal with people who complain about Kyoto animation not picking up, e.g. Little Busters (since they did a lot of other Key adaptation) or carry on with Haruhi. If they have churned more Key adaptations and Haruhi seasons, well, half the Kyoto series we've had in the last 3-4 years wouldn't exist at all (since a lot of their stuff now is anime original, or only loosely adapted from short stories). Also, only being able to make one show at a time means they have to go with whatever is guaranteed to keep the studio in business. It doesn't matter how good a show is, if people aren't buying the DVDs. If the studio goes all-out and spends 6 months working on a show that wasn't a good seller in the first place, they will go bankrupt and have to close down. They don't just flip a coin and decide what to make. This is a serious decision. It would've been better if all they had were sequels tbh, the shows they've been making for the last 3 years kind of sucked. Durarara and natsume would've been their cash cows. |

| I didn't know this is actually popular in Japan |

| Omg, yes! I'm so happy, of course Rumiko's work always deserves more seasons. I'm so glad it'll be continuing. Ranma 1/2 doesn't need a remake. People wishing for that should just stop hoping because it'll never happen. It would improve the animation if so, but still. It won't happen. |
 |
| To be true, I might skip it...it started pretty good but turned into a disappointment. It makes me mad to know that it got a 2nd season while other things that are so good didn't ... |
 |
| Well...what would a Takahashi show be without a runtime of at least 50 eoisodes. She sure likes to stretch things out. In my opinion her worst work. Mashes her usual gimmicks and characters together to form a mass of uninteresting nothingness.. |
 |
| Maybe i should watch those last 22 episodes of first season now. |
| Have to admit I'm surprised but happy to hear there will be an S2. |
 |
| this is really good news <3 |
 |
| I dropped this during the first cour, does it get better or? |
| Btw, I noticed something... Stark700 said: According to CDJapan, 26 volumes have been released so far and volume 27 will be released this month (September 18).The series runs in Weekly Shounen Sunday magazine and currently has 41 volumes in print. The manga's 42nd volume will be published this month. |
| haha..is it really worth it |
| Not really excited but oh well, I'll watch it. |

| Seriously?? I can't wait to finish the series because it is getting worser and wanted to complete it fast. Yet another season? Might watch the first few episodes then make my decision. |

Might watch the first few episodes then make my decision. I was thinking the same thing. I haven't even been bothering to keep up to date with the latest episodes, so I've just got the series on hold for the time being. I'll finish it eventually, but it's seems to have gotten more and more boring as the series progressed. I doubt I'll ever watch the second season. |
 |
| Huh. I wonder what they'll do with a Season 2.. |
| Well if this get's a season 2 then anything is possible right?? I mean,, everytime dvd/blu-ray sales are posted, I don't think the first season ever broke 1000 sold on any of the current releaseed, so how does that factor into this.. |

| I don't know if I'll watch it. The first season is fine so far. The characters are adorable, but the story wasn't as good as expected. |

| HOW? |
