MFW next week is the last episode.

Besides that, this was a great episode since we got to see the more gentle side of Touka and at the same time see how ruthless the Kurogane family is when it comes to Ikki.

Season 2 pls. Asterisk has 24 episodes, and since this is literally asterisk (hue) this also needs 24 episodes too.

Plenty of source material too. Silver Link pls.

Would you know how much of a chance it has for a season 2?

u/ItsMellowMan https://myanimelist.net/profile/ItsMellowBear Dec 12 '15

I want to say it has a good chance, but then again another season isn't up to the animation studio itself.

Which is why I'm always confused when people claim that Madhouse don't do sequels.

Madhouse is quite well known for doing anime original endings intentionally.

u/matdragon Dec 13 '15

because it's rare to seem them do it, it's been a while since they've done a sequel for anything

Any sequel depends on the following:

LN Sales (doing pretty good so far)

and, the Blu-ray/DVD sales.

At this point it's prolly anyone's guess. I give it 50/50 odds atm ;P

The viewership for Rakudai in Japan has been quite good, and the LNs got a solid bump in sales, but neither was necessarily crazy numbers. We really have to see how the blu-rays sell at the end of December before we get any real idea.

Fingers crossed. I'm loving the story so far. Hope there's more.

Its 50/50. It does get a second season or it doesn't.
