Valkyrie Drive Mermaid Season 2 Release Date & Renewal Status

While loyal fans have been clamoring for Valkyrie Drive Mermaid Season 2, there hasn’t been any official confirmation regarding its renewal or a release date.

There was a rumor that the sequel might air in 2022, but it did not.

Despite the absence of concrete information, the hardcore fans remain hopeful that the series will return with new adventures.

However, based on the show’s rating and popularity, I don’t think season 2 will be released.

The Valkyrie Drive anime is rated only 6.07 on MyAnimeList. It is ranked #1558 in terms of popularity, which is very low.

Given the fact that the first season did not make a good profit, it is almost guaranteed that season 2 will be a flop too.

Not to mention, the studio that animated Valkyrie Drive Mermaid, Arms Studio, has gone bankrupt. The company got dissolved, and all the projects they worked on are probably shelved forever.

Is There Enough Source Material For A Sequel?

One critical aspect of any sequel is the availability of source material. Valkyrie Drive Mermaid is a bit unique in this regard. It was primarily created to promote a multimedia project, including a game and an anime.

Since the anime has already adapted its source material, it may be challenging to create additional content for Season 2.

If the show was popular enough, the creators would’ve written a new continuation story. However, since the anime wasn’t successful, there’s very little chance of getting a sequel story.

What Will Happen In Valkyrie Drive Mermaid Season 2?

The storyline of Valkyrie Drive Mermaid Season 2 does not exist. The first season was an original anime. This means that it is not based on any source material.

However, the creators can craft an entirely new plot or explore the existing characters’ backgrounds and relationships in more depth. Expect more action-packed battles and intriguing character dynamics if a second season is ever greenlit.

Which Studio Will Animate The Next Season?

The first season of the anime was the work of Arms Studio. However, as I mentioned earlier, they went bankrupt, and thecompanyt shut down in 2020.

Most other anime that this studio created like Elfen Lied and Aesthetica of a rogue hero are also waiting for renewal.

So, if we ever get season 2 of Valkyrie Drive Mermaid, a new studio has to take up the job. Personally, I’d say Studio Passione would be a fine pick considering their excellence in ecchi harem genre.

Where Can I Watch Valkyrie Drive Mermaid Season 2?

When Valkyrie Drive 2 eventually debuts, you can expect it to be available on Funimation. Funimation already has the distribution license for the series, so they will certainly update the upcoming episodes.

Given the explict nature of this anime, most other streaming services do not have the show available to watch.

Fans can also check if the series is available for purchase or rent on platforms like Google Play, Amazon, and iTunes.

Alternately, you can purchase the Blu-ray set from sites like Blu-Ray.com, Amazon, or eBay as well. This will allow you to watch offline without distractions and support the anime’s creators directly.
