| Let's go champ! Jk... I'm actually not too excited at all tbh. Megalo Box was action-packed. Unfortunately, that was it. Meanwhile Ashita no Joe, to me, was poetry. It was beautiful. I'll probably be giving the first few episodes a go though... a fool can only hope. |

| I enjoyed the first season so I'll definitely give it a watch, but it felt like the story they sought to tell was pretty cleanly finished already. I'm expecting another case of "it was popular, so have more." |

| Interested to see where they could potentially take it. Probably an unnecessary sequel, but, I'll keep my mind open. |
| I like how we all got a notification and were just surprised. Like what Season 2? Wasn't it supposed to be a one-time thing? |
 |
| damn I'm excited. i wonder how the sequel will go, cuz the first season had a good ending. |
| Meh. Whilst there is no 2nd season for anime that require it *cough cough* No Game No Life *cough*, trash like these are getting them. |
 |
| Let sleeping dogs lie |
 |
| I'm glad the first one ended when it did |
| Hell yeah, now time to binge watch Ashita no Joe to prep. |
 |
| Totally unnecessary sequel if you ask me. Aside from the "classic" artstyle and the OST, the series wasn't something really special. |

| I'm somewhat cautious but also excited. On one hand where can the story even go now, with how it ended anything else will feel a bit more tacked on. On the other hand I enjoyed it enough that I wouldn't mind more |
 |
| imo season 1 ended perfect but if this is a side story with different characters im game!!!! either way ill watch it. yujoe 4ever |
| moe moe ichijou seiya |
| SO excited and completely unexpected!! i'm a bit nervous. the first season ended on an amazing note, which means there is rife opportunity to screw things up with the second season. i think it's in good hands though and i cannot wait to see it |
| what else is there for Joe to do really? he's a Champ already, Amma watch it to slap myself and prove myself wrong(i hope it proves wrong) the ending looked pretty good enough to wrap the whole thing as a closure, but you never know what they might be cooking for us. |
 |
| Ok i definitely didn't expect this but i'm in ! |
| Deep dark fantasies |
| OHHH BBY PLEASE! TONY very excited!!!! |
| Yeah, still can't bring myself to care about the less cool Joe. |
 |
| Best news in years! |
| Ahhhh! Can't wait! |
 |
| Megalo Box was that very rare kind of an anime: the one that has an actual ending. A dope one, too! And now we're getting a sequel. Not saying that sucks or anything, but I just hope it's not going to be a direct sequel, but rather something akin to a new installment - maybe taking place in a different part of the 'verse, or using the "X years later" formula. |
     |
| Huh I mean like many are saying a sequel isn't needed to this... hopefully they don't mess it up. |
 |
| Oh I totally forgot about this mediocre Ashita no Joe. I didn't give it much flak considering it was mostly a tribute and the retro vibe was nicely recreated but, a sequel? The "first season" had a rushed but clear ending. Unnecesary sequel, instead of remaking Ashita no Joe they announce this. |
 |
| Actually there is no need for season 2 since the ending of season 1 was okay. Oh well, I will give it a try since I enjoy the series |
 |
| if the whole cast and staff returns then yes, better to make it now than to wait 10 years or more to do it. Only thing that will kill my hype for this would be if they tell the repetitive and generic story of a new young protagonist. I hope this sequel is about Joe and not some new random person. |
| ahh... yes good news! wait!, who is the next challenger? |
 |
| The first season ended quite nicely so idk what they're going to do with this. Although, I would be interested if they sort of take the Creed route and have Joe coach a new talent. |
| Seeing the mixed reactions, it'd be funny if the sequel ends up being better that the first season. Although I have absolutely no idea how that could happen and what they have planned for this anyway. But I hope I'll at least get new cool soundtracks to add to my playlist. |
 |
| This is so unexpected since everything seemed to be wrapped up in the first season. I'm looking forward to it! |
 |
| Yeah, I'm sharing similar opinions that the first ended on a good conclusion... BUT, I'm interested in the ideas they'll use to continue it. Personally, I was always more interested in the Gears. |
| "You know you've reached peak quality when a doujin is better than the actual source series." (Eg. To LOVE-Ru) Just to list a couple of biases. Likes: A good story, characters, writing, romance, a good plot twist or something that breaks expectations (In a good way), 'backstory' and justice. Dislikes: Bad romance, too much fanservice, the harem genre, yuri, yaoi, and bad writing. |
| I loved the first season. One of my favorites (top 20). I don't know how I feel about a second season. The first one's ending was great on its own. |
 |
| Agree with most everyone else here, I liked Megalo Box but I really can't think of what a sequel could add. Ashita no Joe was still 10 times better too. |
My candies:            Bonus candies:  |
| ill watch just so i can be contradicted on my thoughts on the serie. |
