Reader’s Question:
I’ve heard that a new pachinko machine based on Oda Nobuna’s Ambition has been released. Do you think there will be a second season of the anime?
Will There Be a Second Season of Oda Nobuna’s Ambition?
So, I was chatting with a friend the other day about anime, and
the topic of Oda Nobuna’s Ambition came up. You know, the one that blends history with a twist of fun and fantasy? Apparently, there’s a new pachinko machine based on it, which got us thinking: could this spark a second season for the anime? My friend, who’s pretty knowledgeable about the anime scene, shared their thoughts. They expressed a pretty strong opinion that the chances of a second season are slim to none. It’s interesting to think about, right? They mentioned that if too much time passes, it really affects viewer interest and ratings for a potential sequel. I mean, it makes sense. Just look at other shows that struggled with renewal after long breaks. Now, here’s the kicker—my friend pointed out that only a handful of series have revived thanks to pachinko. It’s like trying to squeeze into an exclusive club where you’re not quite sure if you fit in. Plus, they brought up something that I found quite surprising: the original author and Kadokawa having some behind-the-scenes drama. That definitely complicates things. And then there’s the storyline—apparently, in the anime, they wrapped up some character arcs in a way that might not leave room for a continuation. Can you imagine if your favorite character got taken out too soon? Talk about a bummer! As we were discussing, I couldn’t help but think about my own experiences with anime. Sometimes I find myself binge-watching shows that I thought wouldn’t get a second season, only to be pleasantly surprised. Like that one time I was up late, devouring snacks and episodes of a show I thought was done for—only to suddenly find out they decided to bring it back! It was like finding an extra slice of pizza in the fridge when you thought there was none left. Pure joy. Anyway, I’m curious to hear what you all think. Do you have any favorite shows that you wish would get a second season? Or maybe a series that came back unexpectedly? Share your thoughts and experiences in the comments! Let’s keep the conversation going!
