This is making Studio NUT a lot of cash to rake in, I would be surprised if they didn't make a Season 2.

That pretty much is the point. Stop begging for it, go out and buy stuff if you want a second season. I for one bought all six novels.

I have better things to do with my money than throw it in a pile and burn it, which is pretty much what you're doing buying something a second time. If their business relies on people buying multiple copies and forms of the same media, they're doing something wrong and need to monetize their product properly.

You most likely didn't spend any money the first time, so what are you complaining about?

It's called respect. I buy the books to support the writers so that they will write more, some of the profits go to the publishers, which invest in animation as a way to market their books, so I am rewarding them for bringing something I enjoyed to my attention and to signal that I would like a second season as well.

And you are free to spend your money on what you want, likewise I am free to spend my money on what I want. If you want a second season, then show it through buying stuff, if you don't then don't. Continue to leech off those who do.

If you trust the fuckups of a Chinese streaming service the next season should already be planned.

In January and February the 1st 2 volumes sold about 120,000 copies. Guessing that March will be around 30K, and assuming that there were sales of other volumes that didn't make the cut, this would be a bump of 160,000 volumes that would not have existed without the book.

On top of this there is quite the collection of merchandise, but I have no idea how much that sold.

So good solid success, not a complete home run, but not bad either. Solid BD sales around 8k I think would be enough if it hasn't already been green lit (I think it has, Studio Nut was formed to animate this series, and I doubt that they would have left Madhouse for a single season).

Are there any official plans on licensing and translating the books?

I am only repeating what I read, I did not actually verify it: Studio NuT is headed by a team that left Madhouse because they wanted to specifically animate Youjo Senki. Edit Thanks Elkensteyin! Didn't see that until after I posted.

Now if that is true, then I think that there must have been some guarantee of a second season because I cannot see people leaving a secure company like Madhouse to take a gamble on a one season animation. This is why I think that there has to be a second season in store.

But that is my speculation.

None that I have heard of, but honestly I don't track this is anyway, so I would be one of the last to know!

Also, nowadays, Yen Press is doing their job, maybe Youjo Senki will also get picked up by them.

It hasn't gone on sale yet, first volume is set for April 26th. There used to be a guy here who would try to predict what the sales would be (based on some figures), he was pretty decent at being in the ballpark, but I don't think he is here anymore, of if he is he stopped doing the predictions. He was on the DVD sales thread over on the News thread.

Not seeing it on their site, and they have their schedule out to August. Skythewood is fanning it, they usually do both good and steady work.

There's a chance, if they're going to depend their possibility to make a sequel with the LN sales. So let's hope for boost in sales.

Where would one buy official merchandise, for now i can see t-shirts etc on Ebay for sale, but i highly doubt that's any official merchandise that will in any way help the team making the anime.

I hope this will sell well. Sometimes the Japanese have weird taste and don't buy the good anime. And I hope it didn't end anime original (I don't know the source/novel).

Some novel readers mentioned that it seemed like it would follow a different path - a few episodes before the end ... with that one evil soldier that that (if I understood them correctly) was supposed to die a bit earlier.

This ending felt open (leaving room for a season 2). And I liked the series. I'd definitely watch more. (Other crap gets lots of seasons as well.)

I'm confident there will be something in the future. Whether it's S2 or even a movie.
Anime is from Vol. 1 to Vol. 3 of the LN (except for the last chapter in Vol. 3).

There are 7 LN Volume in total, so there are 4 more to be adopted, so there is hope.

Just like Mahouka Koukou No Rettousei (Irregular at Magic High School), they 21 LN Volume and the anime adopted 7 Volume. The new upcoming movie in June 2017 is a new original story after Volume 8 (they skip Vol. 7 & Vol. 8). So you can do the math. Took em 3 years to come out with a movie

Madmouse has a bad reputation when it comes to making a sequel, but if all is well... we might be getting a new sequel in few years. By then, pretty sure we'll have more than 10 Volumes

HxH had an extremely conclusive ending. The goal set from episode 1 was achieved.
Maybe there were some things to settle but the main thing was done lol.

Even though NUT is in the production committee, it depends upon the publisher if they think a second season is worth it.

The whole last episode felt like a build up to a season 2. There was this Chinese site that said 26 episode so I was hoping for it to be split cour, but I guess not.

They should make a season 2 and/or translate the LNs faster.

Not knowing the ending is killing me. The best one I can think of for this series is Tanya killing Being X then ascending to godhood.

I hope they make a season 2. Tanya reminds me of the protagonist from Death Note and that worries me because I really don't want the same fate to happen to her. Hope they don't go with something predictably stupid like having the daughter of Anson somehow manage to kill Tanya and make it out to be a good ending because the "good" guys win. That would ruin my day since Tanya is just such an interesting character.

The manga is about half way through the anime.
So I have no idea if there is more source material for season 2.
But I also hope there is a second season.

Now to try the english dub to see if it is any good.
(As in did they do accents for the different countries)

" You guys must want more right? The LN is available for you to pick-up!"

Is a rather more explainable to why would the anime end there. God, I feel like throwing a tantrum but all I can do would be nothing.

I dunno about the LN, but I'd probably see how many volumes has been translated thus far.
