The production committee of the Rail Romanesque short television anime revealed on Saturday that it will receive a second season. Rie Tanaka (Strike Witches) will join the cast in the new season as Kaniko.

Hisayoshi Hirasawa (Yatogame-chan Kansatsu Nikki) is the director and sound director of the first season at animation studio Saetta. Kouichi Motomura is penning the script, and Takayuki Noguchi (Hachigatsu no Cinderella Nine) is the character designer. The anime began airing on October 3 and is scheduled to end with episode 12 on December 19.

Rail Romanesque is based on Lose's Maitetsu adult visual novel, which was developed in March 2016. The game was later ported to PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch under the title Maitetsu: Pure Station in July 2018 and January 16, respectively. Sekai Project released a censored version of the visual novel globally on Steam in June 2018.

Ame Kanro serialized a manga adaptation on Famitsu's Comic Clear website between December 2017 and January 2019. Kadokawa published the manga in two volumes in August 2018 and March 2019.

I watch most shorts because they're not too time consuming and mostly harmless but after watching the first season I know enough to skip the second. Not worth your time unless you have a train fetish.

Ok then, I mean, is bad but it's also short, so who cares?

Wait what?

Literally the only reason why Rail Romanesque even existed as far as I could tell was to be a promotion for the release of Maitetsu - Last Run. That was released at the end of October. So now what? What would a second season accomplish for marketing purposes that this first one didn't already? The show has barely any form of content otherwise so uhm... what's the thought process here exactly?

WHAT THE HECK LOL...

Considering that both the studio Saetta and probably its famed short series Yatogame-chan raking in the small profit, they really wanna try and squeeze every profit outta this.

Honestly surprising, yet not surprising.

I’m not watching the show currently but I just want to see that it’s really pleasing to see that this info is out before even the season finale.

a sequel I don't want or need. But it's short so I guess I'll waste a few minutes of my free time every week for this show.
