The first TV anime is being produced by TMS Entertainment and began its broadcast in Fall 2016. It is currently airing with 21 episodes so far.

Even I am also wondering if MAL will put a separate entry for its second season or just merge them but, nevertheless, I'm very happy that this hilarious short anime is getting a second season. :) Started watching this for Inori Minase, then continued watching because of Inori Minase and the entertaining historical comedy. :3

This is really great news. I really enjoy the series and I feel like there is so much left to be done that could be done. Assuming this is going to air the week after the current season ends, I wonder if MAL would put them up as two separate entries or merge them together. I feel that either case would work really well.

So MAL will put S2 as separate entry in database or combines them since airing will be continues?

When I read Nobunaga and season 2, I actually thought they're making a 2nd season of Oda Nobuna no Yabou.

YO I THOUGHT THE SAME THING LOL

Was severely disappointed that I was wrong :S

It's even hilarious how true this is. Never expected this to be an actually good Nobunaga show, given how bland and forgettable most Sengoku/Nobunaga shows tend to be, aside from Nobunaga Concerto but that one ended before it even started. So it's good to know that this might even last a complete year at this point.

Cool, it's a gag series but has serious moments too.

Teekyuu-style "one season following straight on from the previous one"?

Anyway, good news, this.
