Fans of the breakaway anime hit "Yuri On Ice" are anxious about the future of the show, especially when the anime's creator, MAPPA, have kept its silence and kept details a tightly guarded secret. The anime became a massive international hit despite missing the radar of some of the most dedicated anime fans.
"Yuri on Ice" season 2 is expected to continue the story of Yuri Katsuki, a male figure skater, as he traverses the rather icy world of figure skating. According to Korea Portal, the first season of the anime was composed of 12 episodes and was directed by Sayo Yamamoto who had in the past created iconic animes such as "Lupin The Third" and "Michiko & Hatchin."
Animation studio MAPPA has been mom about the details of "Yuri on Ice" season 2. The utter lack of details about the future of the anime has led some fans to believe that the second season might not be coming after all.
Compounding fans' concern is the fact that "Yuri on Ice" is not adapted from a manga like most animes usually do. Some fans even pointed out that the first season of the anime closed on a positive note, adding that the main character's story ended well that a second season is no longer relevant.
Despite these fears of "Yuri on Ice" season 2 not coming, many fans still believe that the anime's blockbuster hit is sure to entice producers to develop a second season in order to cash into the show's popularity. The anime currently has a huge fan base, and this could potentially open up a very lucrative endeavor.
According to Inquisitr, the popularity of "Yuri on Ice," along with its engaging storyline and tightly written plot have impressed critics that it won the first Crunchyroll Anime of the Year award. The anime topped other popular titles like "My Hero Academia" and "Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress."
