The God of Highschool is an anime series with supernatural elements and comedy elements. The story, whose original story is based on a manga, is licensed by Crunchyroll. Actually, it wouldn’t be right to say manga. The anime is adapted from a manhwa, a Korean manga. Originally aired on Tokyo MX, AT-X channels, the anime also aired on the HBO Max channel. The series, which started broadcasting on July 6, 2020, completed its first season on September 28, 2020, with its thirteenth episode named “GOD / GOD”. The series is created by Japanise studio MAPPA, the same Japanese studio as Dorohedoro, which we ranked first in the list of best anime released this year.
The anime adaptation of the manga series, written and illustrated by Yongje Park, found audiences worldwide with its release on HBO. The anime with an above-average score of 7.6 on IMDb also gets positive reviews from critics. Fans of the series are now worried about the second season. Will there be a second season of the series?

What is the plotline of the Anime: The God of High School?
It all started with the fighting tournament to find the strongest fighter of all high schools in Korea. Mori Jin, a taekwondo expert and high school student, soon learns that something much bigger lies beneath the tournament scene.
The God of high school is about three young Korean contestants who climbed to the top in a worldwide martial arts tournament. Fans of fight scenes will love this anime. The God of High School knows its audience is here to see jaw-dropping fight scenes.
The random chibi and pixel art moments in the last minutes of Mori and Daewi’s final match were spectacular. The quality of the music and drawings was almost the answer to what the shounen anime viewers want to see.
Will there be a second season of the Anime?
The series has not yet been confirmed for a second season. Since the first season has just been released, the lack of renewal should not cause concern. This is usually the case. Based on some data, we can say whether the series will have a second season or not. We think there will be a second season of the series. So why do we feel so?
The series has really good reviews so far, it has a good score according to IMDb data, and the series has many fans on social media. The first season ratings of the series were also in a position to satisfy the producer channels financially. It should be said that the MAPPA studio can also provide stability in its productions. So, are there enough resources material?
When is the release date of The God of High School Season 2?
As we said before, although the series is not a manga, it is a manhwa adaptation. The manhwa series created by Yongje Park is broadcast on Webtoons. There are 486 chapters made since 2011. The 6-season resource material for anime is available so far and still increasing. We see that the array is open in terms of resource material. There is no confirmation yet, but based on estimates, the next season of the series will be released in 2021 late.
We do not expect changes in the characters and voice actors in the series’s possible second season. The series’s English voices are made by voice actors such as Robbie Daymond, Sean Chiplock, and Veronica Taylor.
