Akatsuki No Yona Season 2
Anime Relations: Akatsuki no Yona, Akatsuki no Yona OVA
Akatsuki No Yona is one of the greatest animes I have ever seen. The storytelling is brilliant, and the character development is so good that even Yona's hair growth is shown on the show. Through all the breathtaking drama, complex character relations and the fact that there is no good side in this show - just the protagonist's perspective and then other perspectives, Akatsuki no Yona is one show that has kept all of us waiting on our toes with excitement for the promised second season.
However, it has been way overdue the promised time limit of one and a half years, as the first season had been released in 2014 and the OVAs in 2016. It is December 2018 as I write this article and there has been no official news of a second season yet.
There have been rumours of the second season being released almost every year, with the latest rumours saying that it might be released at the end of 2019, or 2020. It has been reported that even FUMINATION wants to renew ANY for a season 2 and have been pressuring Pierrot Co. Ltd. to produce a second season due to its popularity in other countries than Japan. Apparently the reason why Pierrot has been hesitant to produce any more seasons of ANY is because of its lack of popularity in Japan.
As a fan of ANY, you can also help pressurize Pierrot to produce a second season by signing the petitions below. They have already garnered almost 15,000 signatures!

As an anime lover, I believe that it is quite important to promote a anime like ANY due to reasons like the fact that it is a fresh look on reverse harem animes, especially women-lead action animes, where their main purpose is not to be objectified while they breastily fight against villains or use zero brain cells while they are constantly molested by a group of men. It also has an amazing storyline with no clear villain as the show progresses and unexpected twists and turns. If you haven't already watched it, please go give it a try!
