So now we have confirmation. What's your prediction? Will this end with a open ending? Or will they wrap everything up?

Saddest news I've seen today.

I think it will have an open ending.

That's sad, but if they push through with the season 2 of SNK this year or next year, then I'm good. :)

Sadly, I think it's best that way. It already showed signs of dipping during episodes 4 and 6. At least it still looks and IS good. It's better than going Evangelion on us and having crayon drawings used for animation towards the end.

WIT is fucking slow, they started production on Kabaneri in 2012, it took 4 years to make 12 episodes.

AoT season 2 will also have been almost 4 years in the making when it airs winter 2017, they managed to make 3 magus bride OVA's scheduled for release between september 2016-17.

The studio is doing so well they should increase production capacity already. Kabaneri looks like a hit, it's a good time for investment.

That is a rumour it hasn't been confirm to come out in 2017. Actually episodes are being produce for Kabaneri even now, basically it has been in pre production for years.

Definitely going to have an open ending, mainly because KnB seems to be pretty popular from what I have seen of polls so far, so they'll likely be trying to milk it more if possible. And tbh, I do want a 2nd season myself, it's not great but it's atleast good.

As shown by Code geass, I wouldn't put much hope in a manga based off an anime. There's a big chance it will be bad.

there's an ongoing manga adaptation, that's a fact

even if it's directly related to the content of the anime it's still a manga adaptation, if you want new stuff you should read the prequel novel when it's released

Why are people so obsessed with these things having more than one season? I understand that this is an enjoyable series but sometimes these things are better when they're short and to the point.

I can see this series wrapping up by the 12th episode. One of the characters want to go to that one station for an unspecified reason, for all we know the reason could be due to a possible solution to the Kabane problem.

I have no idea why you brought up snk, no one is forcing you to watch snk if you don't like it don't watch it. Are wit studio having a gun to your head forcing you to watch snk? Lmao!

Snk has no effect on whether kabaneri get a second season or not. So you can breath easy mate.

@NemuriNezumi -_- you completely miss the point, the user said he will probably pick up the manga after the anime ends. Implying he is going to read the manga yo see the continuation, when that isn't the case.

but shouldn't snk fans be the one complaining since they're waiting for the second season for 3 years and this series is definitely the reason snk season 2 hasn't aired yet?

keep in mind this is Kabaneri first debut so I doubt wit studio was even thinking of making a second season when they have no idea if it will be successful or not. heck we don't even no if this series will get a second season. They could wrap up the story right now, not like the story was anything deep in the first place for it to be longer than 12 episodes.....

That part with snk was just unnecessary really, and it felt like you just wanted to vent your frustration on something and snk was the perfect one to vent it on, which is pretty childish really.

lol you even said it yourself that the shows affect each other. So I have every right to state my opinion which is wanting to see another season of kabaneri instead of snk. I personally like it more and based on the popularity polls for this season, kabaneri is leading a lot of them, and that's why I said that a 2nd season isn't far fetched.

check that link out, the entire 2017 has slots already taken up for noitaminA, snk season 2 could not even be airing in 2016 or 2017 Kabaneri would still not be released.

also wit has been working on kabaneri since 2012!! dont forget its not being adapted from a manga, so it takes time to write the story board ect. whether you like it or not snk has no way of affecting kababneri in the first place.

Kabaneri affects snk season 2, so no! it doesn't go both ways. and yes I am butthurt because you are blaming snk season 2 even though it cant possible affect Kabaneri if it gets a season 2 that is

Educate yourself more about how the anime industry works before talking bullshit.

it's not "blaming", I'm just saying the fact that whenever there's snk season 2, there most probably won't be a kabaneri season 2 at the same time, and I would rather have the latter. And if you get so butthurt and can't accpet other people's opinions, then that's your problem

Unless they plan to troll everyone with a horrible ending, there is no way this series can end in 6 episodes. It has to be an open ending. We still have quite a bit things to cover, imo, such as:

1) Mumei's full backstory
2) Kongokaku (where the anime will most likely end)
3) The truth/history of the Kabane and Kabanari
4) The different Kabane races (eg. Wakazaki and Fused Colony)
5) The true antagonists (it's obvious that there are)
6) Mumei's "brother" and his whole ordeal + possibility of human massacre
7) Character Background of Support Characters and Development of all characters.
8) Finding a cure (Ikoma states he wanted to go to Kongokaku to assist)


The anime will most likely end when they reach Kongokaku.
