Animes have copious genres that give fans options to pick their favorites. Some like dark fantasy, some rom-coms, and drama, some thrillers, some humor and funny, some erotic and sensual, and some sports animes. The list goes on, and it is undeniable that some of the anime series are just too good to miss out on. One such anime series is ‘Welcome to the Ballroom,’ which is a sports anime that became a hit right when it hit the screens. The first season amassed a hugely positive response, and now everyone is waiting to hear about it getting a renewal. Fans are clustered with so many questions in their mind, with one of them being supremely important, which is whether or not the creators of the anime series want to make season 2 or not. Let’s look at all the possibilities we could find to know what to expect and what not to.
Will ‘Welcome to the Ballroom’ Get A Second Season?
Renewal Status: Pending
Sports animes are one of the genres that perform the best in Japan. There are some amazing sports anime like Kuroko’s Basketball, Yuri on Ice, Haikyu!! and many more that made their way into fans’ hearts forever. Also, we will have to consider the fact that ‘Welcome to the Ballroom’ is a show that gets featured on a prominent broadcast network like Amazon. Fans would know that the series is available for those who have access to Amazon Prime Video and that too not only in the United States but also in Japan. Having said that, such a huge broadcaster can’t air something if it does not see the potential and a successful future in it. Amazon must have figured out that the commercial success of this franchise is going to be high. Therefore, the management decided to acquire exclusive rights for the series worldwide.
Another possibility could be the positive responses the first season garnered from the audience the franchise targeted. Looking at the figures presented by MyAnimeList, Ballroom e Youkoso gained a score of 8.20/10 from 151,734 votes. This is pretty decent to convince the creators to prepare for the second season. The third and another important factor to keep in mind is the fact that the original manga has 10 volumes that contain 48 chapters. It looks like this franchise is a long-time work and project for the creators and team. Therefore, if we conclude our argument here, we can say that the chances are extremely high for ‘Welcome to the Ballroom’ to get another season.
When Can We Expect Season 2 Of ‘Welcome to the Ballroom’ To Arrive?
The first season of Welcome to the Ballroom came out in July 2017 on MBS. Eventually, Tokyo MX, BS11, and Gunma T.V. showed this anime in Japan, and for global fans, it is always available on the broadcaster giant, Amazon Prime Video. Production I.G. produces the anime series, and the first season has 24 episodes to entertain its fans. Keeping this in mind, we know that there are enough sources for a brand new season to happen, and we can hope to see the second installment sometime in 2025. If at all any official news is led out, we shall update this space ASAP.
What Is ‘Welcome to the Ballroom’ All About?
‘Welcome to the Ballroom’ or Ballroom e Youkoso in Japanese is a story revolving around Tatara Fujita, who is a student. Tatara is a victim of mockery and bullying committed by her classmates, and as he is young and doesn’t have any plans for the future, he stands clueless most of the time. One day, he gets rescued by Kaname Sengoku, a dance instructor who introduced Tatara into the world of ballroom dancing. The new skill and talent that he can learn and polish give him the confidence to cope with his everyday bullies and troubles and improve his relationship with his classmates as well as strive for perfection.
