Seis Manos is a Netflix anime set in 70s America. The series, which combines many elements such as cartels, far east fighting, and mystical spells, into a fun production, was released on Netflix on October 3, 2019, worldwide. It made a different approach to the animation world with his drawings in the atmosphere of a game arcade. Seis Manos was produced by Powerhouse Animation and Viz Productions. Powerhouse Animation recently also animated the popular Netflix anime Blood of Zeus. In fact, the two series have many common features in the production and management phases. Seis Manos is a series that is still being discovered by new viewers after more than two years, and the audience is waiting for its second season. So, has Netflix renewed the anime for a second season?
Will there be a second season of Seis Manos?
The anime’s first season premiered on Netflix on October 3, 2019. As of September 4, 2022, at the time of writing, the series has not yet been renewed for a second season. Netflix, Powerhouse Animation, Viz, or any anime-related company didn’t hint at a new season. However, it should be noted that there is no cancellation yet. Fans want season two and have started a campaign for it on Change.org.
Seis Manos is an original animated series as it was not adapted from a cartoon or a manga. Therefore, there is no case of source material available for the second season, and there is no need for source material for a new season.
All that is required for the TV Series and anime to continue is to satisfy the producers and broadcasters financially. The anime managed to score 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. It is also above average, with a score of 7.2 on IMDb. But despite this, things are not so bright in terms of popularity. Seis Manos has a very small audience compared to animes like The Dragon Prince and Violet Evergarden on Netflix. The closest example is Blood of Zeus, produced by the same animation studio and is much more popular than Seis Manos. Both series were released on Netflix, and Blood of Zeus was renewed for the second season. However, there is no such decision for Seis Manos, which was published exactly one year before Blood of Zeus. It seems that the studio and producers are focused on the more popular Blood of Zeus. Also, compared to Seis Manos, the studio’s latest work, “Masters of the Universe: Revelation” is also very popular. To be honest, we think the second season of Seis Manos will not happen. There is still hope as there is no cancellation, though. If there is a renewal, we can see a new season in 2023 – 2024, but this probability is very low.
