#Delicious In Dungeon Season 2: Official Trailer Is Out, Release Date

After an incredible first season, fans don’t have to wait for Delicious In Dungeon Season 2. That’s because Netflix has decided to surprise its audience with heartfelt news. Since the streaming giant announced the first season, fans have been a little concerned as Studio Trigger had a reputation for spoiling big banner projects. But it wasn’t the case with the Delicious In Dungeon, and soon after its debut, the series broke all the records. Does that mean Season 2 of Delicious In Dungeon is on the cards? Will it hit the screens quite early? Let’s find out!

Delicious In Dungeon is an adaptation of a Japanese manga by Ryoko Kui. It is set in a fictional world of dungeon exploration where the adventuring parties are set to raid the dungeon in the hope of finding the mysterious Golden Kingdom. Likewise, a group of adventurers set to raid and kill a red dragon. However, their unsuccessful attempt led them to lose the leader’s sister, Falin Touden. So, in order to find her back, group leader Laios Touden and his group members set on a mysterious mission to kill all the monsters and save Falin.

Delicious In Dungeon Season 2: Official Renewal Announcement

There’s no denying that Delicious In Dungeon was an incredibly standout anime. From the beginning, the series has captivated its fans’ hearts. And that’s why Netflix didn’t delay to announce its decision. Just after its successful six-month run, Netflix made a surprising yet pleasant announcement. The streaming giant renewed Delicious In Dungeon for Season 2. The brilliant news came just after the first season wrapped up its airing. The official X account of the anime soon dropped a key visual and a teaser trailer, announcing Delicious In Dungeon Season 2.

While the post quickly went viral, the teaser trailer didn’t give much detail about the following season. It also shared glimpses of the first season, featuring some of the best of Laios and his troupe moment. However, the trailer ends on a thrilling note where Laios and his friends stand against Thistle, the lunatic magician, and an army of dragons. With things remaining under wrap, Delicious In Dungeon Season 2 will definitely give its fans some more interesting storylines to tune into.

Besides that, the anime won the viewers’ hearts and received positive ratings from the critics and the audience. Delicious In Dungeon garnered 7.9 out of 10 on IMDb, while on Rotten Tomatoes, the series earned a 100% positive response. Thus, it’s a no-brainer why Netflix returned with Delicious In Dungeon Season 2.

Delicious In Dungeon Season 2: Production Status

Just after Netflix announced the second season, Studio Trigger, the production house behind the anime, took to X to share the much-needed update. The studio confirmed that Delicious In Dungeon Season 2 was currently in production. That means Studio Trigger has been working on the anime since its first season was on air. Not only this, but the studio house has also shared that the second season will be released in two cours (12 episodes in each block).

That means Season 2 of Delicious In Dungeon will follow the same timeline and run for six or more months. Although the studio house has announced that the series is in production, it remains unclear how long it will take to return to our screens. Considering that Studio Trigger takes almost a year to wrap up the production, we can expect that the anime will enter post-production soon.

Who Will Produce Delicious In Dungeon Season 2?

Studio Trigger is set to return to animate the series. The Japanese animation studio was founded in 2011 by Gainax employees Hiroyuki Imaishi and Masahiko Otsuka. Since then, the studio has created several hit animes, including BNA: Brand New Animal, Little Witch Academia, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, and Kill la Kill. However, Studio Trigger’s Seven Deadly Sins and Record of Ragnarok damaged the company’s reputation, leaving fans disappointed with their work.

With Delicious In Dungeon, the company has finally regained its status. So, fans are excited to see what new the studio house will bring to their table in Delicious In Dungeon Season 2. Although the official website of Studio Trigger suggests that it’s working on the sophomore run, it also suggests that it’s working on another new project, New Panty & Stocking With Garterbelt. So, considering Studio Trigger’s busy schedule, Danjon Meshi Season 2 will take more time than we think.

In addition, Yoshihiro Miyajima will return as the series director, Yasunori Mitsuda and Shunsuke Tsuchiya will be the composers, and Kimiko Ueno will be the anime’s scriptwriter. While little information about the staff details is available, we will update you shortly after the official announcement.

Delicious In Dungeon Season 2: Plot Details

The first run ended on a hopeful note. After defeating Gargoyles, Laios and his friends discovered they could save Falin. All they needed to do was separate her from the dragon and eat its remains to stop them from reattaching Falin. While it could take them ages to achieve their goal, Laios seemed optimistic. Delicious In Dungeon Season 2 will pick the pace from where it left off. Laios will map a plan to seek the help of the other adventurers and islanders to execute their plan.

While he is sure he and his party can save Falin, other threats are still looming. The announcement trailer hinted that Laios and his party have yet to free the Winged Lion. So, the team will soon enter the dungeon to save the Winged Lion. But it won’t be easy as Thistle, the lunatic magician, and an army of dragons will be waiting for them. This will undoubtedly create a panic situation for the adventurers as they have no clue how to deal with them.

Since anime has remained true to its source material, it will undoubtedly cover the epic showdown. Besides this battle, Kabru and Namari will be tasked to warn the elf government’s secret police force, Canaries. The duo will inform the Canaries about the changes in the dungeon. As the first season hinted that the dungeon is expanding, it will definitely lead to the introduction of more new monsters. That will indeed create problems for the islanders. So now, Canaries are tasked to stop this menace before things go out of control.

Dungeon Meshi Season 2: Cast Details

As of now, the official news hasn’t yet revealed much about the series’ cast. However, since the main characters are set to return, we can expect that their voice actors will return as well. These include:

• Laios Touden – Kentaro Kumagai (Japanese), Damien Haas (English)
• Marcille Donato – Sayaka Senbongi (Japanese), Emily Rudd (English)
• Chilchuck Tims – Asuna Tomari (Japanese), Casey Mongillo (English)
• Senshi – Hiroshi Naka (Japanese), Sung Won Cho (English)
• Izutsumi – Mitsuho Kanbe (Japanese), Laura Stahl (English)
• Falin Touden – Saori Hayami (Japanese), Lisa Reimold (English)
• Kabru – Wataru Kotah (Japanese), Cedric Williams (English)

While Delicious In Dungeon Season 2 is expected to bring more monsters to the table, their voice actors have yet to be revealed. However, the Winged Lion will be voiced by none other than the anime’s narrator, Satoshi Mikami.

Will There Be More Delicious In Dungeon Seasons?

It doesn’t seem like though. That’s because the anime is an adaptation of Ryoko Kui’s manga series, which has 14 volumes in total and covers 97 chapters. As we know, the first season covered 52 chapters of the eight volumes. There isn’t room for more seasons. The series has already gone halfway. Danjon Meshi Season 2 is expected to cover half of the manga in its run. If the series follows the same pattern as the first season, then season 2 will cover two chapters per episode. This shows there isn’t enough source material left to return with Delicious In Dungeon Season 3.

How Popular Is Dungeon Meshi?

Danjon Meshi or Dungeon Meshi was serialized from February 2014 to September 2023 in Enterbrain’s seinen manga magazine. While the manga is undoubtedly one of its kind, it broke all the records last year. As of March 2024, the Dungeon Meshi has 14 million copies in circulation. That means the anime’s great work on Netflix’s ground has increased the manga’s sales. While the manga has seen a hike in its sales, anime’s blockbuster performance has no match.

Delicious In Dungeon ended with the eighth volume of the source material. Within its debut, the series became the most-watched anime on Netflix. Dungeon Meshi also remained in Netflix’s Global Top Ten for 15 weeks in Taiwan, 8 weeks in Thailand, 10 weeks in Hong Kong, and 5 weeks in Japan. The series also remained in the top ten in Martinique, Reunion, and Vietnam for a week. Besides this, the series has earned 11,900,000 watch hours globally. That means it earned 7,700,000 total views. Thus, there’s no denying that the series is highly popular.

Delicious In Dungeon Season 2: Release Date Updates

As we have mentioned before, Dungeon Meshi Season 2 is currently in production. Typically, production takes a year or more to complete. If we consider the animation work started earlier this year, then it could have reached halfway. If that’s the case, we can expect Delicious In Dungeon Season 2 release date of middle of 2025. However, we will update you. Till then, stay with The Anime Daily for more such updates.
