ToG Season 2 Announcement/Release Discusssion

Two things to add:

Should ToG be in production I very much believe the earliest release date to be in Spring 2023, since In/Spectre S2 comes out Fall 21 and Tonikawa S2 will very likely air in Winter 21. Crunchyroll traditionally doesn't air two Original titles in the same season, if I am correct.

The other thing is that the perceived "low-quality" of S1 of ToG by some is meaningless when it comes to predicting a possible renewal. There are enough Anime with far worse animation, art and plot that have received a second Season, and if anyone would try to take of their subjectivity glasses, they would see that ToG S1 is at the very least a perfectly decent adaptation.

but is this true?, tell me where did you find the notification that season 2 of ToG is coming out?

maybe because it wasn't as successful as crunchyroll thought it would be we will not be getting a second season

i wouldn't be surprised if it did get a second season but i feel like if they wanted to make it they would've announced it by now

I thought the first season of TOG was to promote the webtoon so I didn't think it would get a second season. Have there been any announcements of a second season?

Eu acredito que, seria um grande vacilo da crunchyrou, não anunciar uma segunda temporada de TOG, já que a primeira temporada, nada mais é do que um pequeno enredo, para a história principal. A partir do cap 78 do manhwa, que foi adaptado em anime, a história tem um grande progresso, onde há muito mais ação, suspense e vários clímax, em uma quantidade razoável de caps.
Contudo, não haveria sentido adaptar apenas uma temporada, de uma obra com bastante potencial como TOG

Hey Guys,
I am currently trying to gather Information that might predict a possible announcement date and later release date for the Season 2 of ToG. (Much of what I write will sound like coping, but I am honestly just curious why we have not yet received any word about the Anime.)

Currently, we have two things: a shady little leak from November last year, and a lot of free time and/or available capital for some people/institutions affiliated with the ToG Anime project.
Said individuals are:
-Telecom, which has not yet announced any projects after Shenmue is finished and is *seemingly* not producing Nagatoro S2
-Kevin Penkin, who "only" has 2 large announced projects for 2022/2023, which might not be unusual compared to his previous record, but is rather peculiar for a popular up-and-coming international composer
-Crunchyroll, which has not yet given up on their Originals it seems, has announced In/Spectre S2 and Tonikawa S2, both rather successful Anime, like ToG
-many people associated with ToG S1, that have no announced projects they are currently working on

Now, there are also many things hinting that ToG will release very late (mid-end 2023 late) or simply never. The Crunchyroll Originals were not really successful, with a few exceptions. Crunchyroll might have no reason to fund ToG Season 2 because proftis were just not positive (enough). There is no real factual evidence when it comes to information by Penkin or any other affiliated person (except that one leak in November).

So, what do you guys think? Maybe I've forgotten something or maybe my information is wrong- whatever, please do share your opinion.[/quote

Isn't Tower of God Crunchyroll most popular original? Was the first season considered a success by them?

(Edit)

By the way, I found a clip on Twitch from a stream with Kevin Penkin from last year, in which he nervously tried to shut down any mention of a possible involvement with ToG Season 2.
Penkins Quote: "Ooh, I don't know anything about that, and neither do you [other composer in the stream], we, we shouldn't put that out."

(Edit) 2
Three things to add:

Should ToG be in production I very much believe the earliest release date to be in Spring 2023, since In/Spectre S2 comes out Fall 21 and Tonikawa S2 will very likely air in Winter 21. Crunchyroll traditionally doesn't air two Original titles in the same season, if I am correct.

Also, we know for sure that in at least the whole of 2021 and January and February of 2022 Crunchyroll was in the process of merging with Funimation, which might explain a lack of Crunchyroll Originals or announcements. I believe the only Crunchyroll Original to air in 2022 is Shenmue, and it simply doesn't look like Crunchyroll is just sweeping their "Originals" project under the rug.

Another thing is the perceived "low-quality" of S1 of ToG by some is meaningless when it comes to predicting a possible renewal. There are enough Anime with far worse animation, art and plot that have received a second Season, and if anyone would try to take of their subjectivity glasses, they would see that ToG S1 is at the very least a perfectly decent adaptation.
