The Anime industry loves to penetrate the masses with their anime projects. For the uninitiated, every series, film, or special episode (or episodes only for that matter) are project before they are what they are. Lycoris Recoil Season 2 may be a beaming possibility.

The gun blazing kung fuu displayed in the Anime has been nothing short of praiseworthy. To the leven even John Wick will seem blunted by it.

But fans were also quick to realize that underlying Lycoris Recoil’s gun-fu are deeper tones of friendship and moral questionings. Having to deal with a Batman Complex, our main protagonists go through their slice-of-life growing.

  • Lycoris Recoil was an anime original. It was then adapted into a manga. That’s why whether a Season 2 is possible or not is tellible from the Manga alone.
  • The first season of Lycoris Recoil, produced by A-1 Pictures and directed by Shingo Adachi, was a hit. Airing for 13 episodes from July 2 to September 24, 2022. According to a survey by Anime Corner, it was the best Japanese anime produced that year.

Both the original Japanese version and an English dub were available for streaming on Crunchyroll as the episodes aired.
