The anime industry is flooded with titles that are focused on romance. Due to the incredible saturation, only romance anime with good quality are able to stand out. Since the beginning of the decade, a ton of anime focused on the theme of love have hit streaming services, but one in particular has stood out, and it's none other than Blue Box.
The anime aired in 2024, and it blew everyone's socks off with its story. Following its conclusion, every fan wanted to know when they could expect to watch the next season of the anime, and now, after a long time, the question has been answered.
Blue Box Season 2 Release Date Has Been Confirmed
Blue Box Season 2 Will Return In Fall 2026
According to the official report, Blue Box Season 2 is expected to be released in Fall 2026. The exact month has not been disclosed, but usually, any anime that falls into this particular season airs in October. So, there is a good chance that Blue Box Season 2 will premiere in October 2026. When the series returns with the new season, it will likely cover the following arcs:
- Yumeka's Return Arc
- Confession Arc
- Relationship Beginnings Arc
Of course, the number of arcs can increase or even decrease if the anime adjusts the episode count. The first season had a total of 25 episodes, which adapted nearly 80 chapters. If the second season has the same length, then the anime could cover the Second Year Beginnings Arc, Prefectural Qualifiers Round 2 Arc, Second Year Fireworks Festival Arc, Second Year Nationals Arc, and Summer Beach Trip Arc.
Fans will be hoping Blue Box Season 2 has 20+ episodes, but it's important to remember that a lot will depend on the studios. Telecom Animation Film and TMS Entertainment worked together on the first season, which is why the anime's quality was so high. It's likely that both will be involved in the production of the second season as well, but it's unclear if they will have enough to work on so many episodes. So, a second season with around 12–14 episodes sounds more plausible.
Blue Box Manga Is Growing In Popularity
Blue Box's anime adaptation has greatly benefited the manga. The anime has helped the series reach a wider audience, which has resulted in better sales. Based on the latest report, Blue Box Manga has sold more than 9 million copies, which is rather impressive for a romance manga. Hopefully, the second season will propel the sales further.
Blue Box Season 2 will release in Fall 2026.
