One of Netflix’s animes, The Seven Deadly Sins, which keeps performing well, has some news about its sequel’s second season, which is set to premiere next month. As The Seven Deadly Sins: Four Knights of the Apocalypse, which debuted in October 2023, gears up for Season 2 release, an all-new teaser has been released alongside an official poster from Netflix, highlighting the return of the major characters this fall. The anime series’ return comes only a few months after Season 1 wrapped on March 31, 2024.
As fans know, Four Knights of the Apocalypse is inspired by the Japanese manga series by Nakaba Suzuki and is a sequel to the creator’s previous series, The Seven Deadly Sins. In addition, produced by TMS Entertainment and animated by Telecom Animation Film, the anime TV series was announced in May 2022 with Maki Odaira added as director. What’s more? Shigeru Murakoshi handled the script, while Youichi Takada worked on character designs with music composed by Kohta Yamamoto.
While this promising anime launched in October 2023, Netflix began streaming it on January 31, 2024, months after the streamer acquired streaming rights to the series in the same month of its premiere. Four Knights of the Apocalypse Season 2 will drop on October 6, 2024, in Japan, while Netflix will ultimately add it to its catalog later on. Unfortunately, the anime is not streaming in real-time with its original broadcast, so fans outside of Japan will have to wait a bit longer to witness Percival’s return.
