...?
How egoistical of you, sir.

If a season 2 ever comes up, you can simply not watch it if you think it´ll be bad. If you know some people would enjoy it without causing you any harm or trouble, why rooting against something that won´t even affect you?

Not really a surprise to see childish behavior on an internet board, but still...

As for the matter at hand...I doubt it will happen anytime soon. First season covered 9 volumes, and there´s only 16 volumes published as of now(and the story is still far from over...GK will problably be at least 30+ volumes long).

So yeah, they would need much more material published in order to not catch up with the manga. We would problably have to wait 2 or 3 years.

But then wouldn't that just be right for season 2 ?
I mean 7 volumes sounds like enough material to make it.

I sure hope so. It would suck to end it now. The season has only just begun in Giant Killing.
But I guess they may wait a year or so before they air a second season, I doubt there will be one before next spring.
I probably regret this post by now.

It's an open ending so wishing there will be season 2.
They're not enough sports anime!!
Oh and the manga is on 16 volumes and ongoing. I don't think the anime cover the whole manga yet.

So? It's not like you have to watch it.

And make it worse how? Manga is still ongoing and as long as they follow that it can't go wrong.

Can you actually read? And I mean not only the letters but the meaning. She only said she fears a second season would make it worse which actually means she likes it... Where's the hating in this?
Nonetheless I don't see her point either because if it keeps following the manga it should stay just as good..

I don think there will be a second season untill 2014 or so when the next big world cup starts. Japanese people arnt reallly intoo football, but since there was a world cup fever all over the world they decided too air this.. But unless there is another fever going arround I dont think they will make a second season 2. I thinkit too bad cuz I love the show, its about reallife football, with tactics and reallife hooligan fans, it aint like some other bullshit football anime aka Captain Tsubaki (whatever hes called) in which people jump 50 meter too do a bycicle kick and score, no giant killing is football in its pure state, but only animated, I seriously went crazy when ETU made a 3 - 2 comeback against Osaka, the only day I did that was during the netherlands world cup matches and Barca matches, thats how good this anime was!! I rate it 8/10, only becuz the animation could have been better

I don't know, maybe? I guess it depends on how much time/money went into this season and whether it's paying off in Japan. (Does anyone know?) They certainly have enough material if they want to make another one.

I would watch a second season, in any case. This one ended at a weird place and I wanna know what's going on with Gino.

Hi everyone, Im from London

I loved this Giant killing series with a passion and i hope with all my heart there is a season two, I have been captivated by the amazing storylines and the realism of the football, the characters are amazing and i especially like Gino of course he is such a narcissist it great.
I believe there isnt enough football anime around and the one already out there are crap and so unrealistic but this is just spot on!!

Lets hope for a great season 2 to be on the way soon!! After all Im sure there is great football fever after japan just won the asia cup!!

The realism of this anime is incredible it explores every part of football, like the players training, thhe emotions fo the fans and ultras, and the board room politics it so cooooool, to bad its based on J league football would have been good if it were English Premiership but its still good, tatsumi is a legend footy manager.

Way better than Bloody captain Tsubasa!!!

here are some camparisons of ETU players with real players:

Gino is like Cristiano Ronaldo they both love themselves and are loved by the ladies and they expect the team to work hard for them. They are both very good.

Kuroda is like Cannavaro they are both short bald headed defenders who are agressive and feisty.

Morakoshi is a bit like Steven Gerrard the captain who leads well and drives the team he is the heart beart of the team.

Tsubaki is like Theo walcott really really fast but not talented techniquely

Natsuki is like Higuain he just wants to score and shot all the time and try rediculous shots at even awkard angles.

I hope there is one because this series is simply.. well.. EPIC. :) I truly enjoyed it, despite not being a big fan of soccer at first (now, I actually quite enjoy it). I'm going to have to start reading the manga if they don't have a 2nd season soon. xD

Well, I have some bad news about that...... ^^'
Quoted from the main website of the scanalation team, ardneh, who's supposed to be scanalating the later chapters of the manga:

"Posted: May 2, 2011 by Ardneh
And for my next project, there’s some bad news. I have to drop some of them.
- GIANT KILLING, the translator, Machi14, is missing"
Source, in this post: http://namalain.wordpress.com/2011/05/02/ushio-to-tora-vol-33/
and this one: http://namalain.wordpress.com/2011/02/18/giant-killing-chp-90/

Only two chapters were translated by these people, chapter 90 and chapter 91 (which is the place where the anime left off) before this happened... The anime left off at volume 10 and I have all the RAWs up until volume 19, but still I refuse to touch the RAWs xD because I can't understand Japanese, and although I'm learning, I don't want to try and guess by the pictures and spoil it for myself If anyone knows about scanalation teams who would like to take this up please write and comment on my profile T-T I wish someone would take it up :( that way the world can enjoy the glory that is this manga!

I agree that personality wise they are the same, but CR is a forward/attacking midfielder and not a play maker like Gino. In fact I think Gino is suppose to be like Andrea Pirlo. Gino is a midfielder like Pirlo, Pirlo is Italian while Gino is half-Italian, and Gino is a play maker like Pirlo just look...

Gino

Ah, it surely deserves a season 2.The manga is well past 30 volumes long, and even then only half of it has been scanlated by now.I hope there will be a s2, if not, atleast the manga should scanlated regularly!

I feel like they should make a second season but I also feel like its better if they don't make a second season.

I'm not a huge fan of Giant Killing mainly because football/soccer isn't my kind of sport but I still enjoyed watching this anime regardless. But I feel like if they make a 2nd season, they'll ruin the whole thing. The 1st season was great and although it didn't cover the entire league, I still felt closure from how it ended. The only part that still got me questioning is where the fans were concerned.
