 The official website of Majutsushi Orphen Hagure Tabi (Sorcerous Stabber Orphen), the new television anime adaptation of Yoshinobu Akita's adventure fantasy light novel series, announced a second season on Wednesday. A 15-second commercial for the new season was also posted by anime production enterprise Genco.Synopsis In a world of magic and monsters, Krylancelo Finrandi and his foster sister Azalea Cait-Sith were once promising students of sorcery, prodigies at the famous Tower of Fangs. But an experiment gone horribly wrong warps Azalea's appearance, trapping her in the form of a dragon. Elders at the Tower—more interested in preserving their reputation rather than their students' lives—drive off the transformed Azalea and cover up the incident. Outraged, Krylancelo strikes out on his own, taking the new name of "Orphen" and vowing to return Azalea to her normal state. Five years later, Orphen's quest has stalled. A chance encounter brings him face to face with Azalea again, but he still has no way to restore her body. And with a hostile group of sorcerers hunting her down, he may be running out of time. The past and present collide as Orphen tries to find how to save Azalea from their former teachers and friends.

| It still boggles me that shit like this and Arifureta get seconds seasons while other shows that are far more popular, better produced, and better written just fade into irrelevancy, but hey I guess that's the industry so big r.i.p there |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| So I take it that this new upcoming season will be the remake of Orphen Revenge? (Idk i'm just assuming it is so, but i haven't watched the remake yet so i don't even know if the first season actually got finished in the remake) |

JPenedo85 said: I take that you never read the novels, they're not generic, the new anime is, though.With so many unproduced quality manga and anime that got cancelled too soon, why continue to pump generic s#!% like this? |
