I personally found S2 to be much weaker than S1 and the manga ending reception doesn't exactly make me excited for this, but I'll probably still see it through anyway.

@perseii Thats the exact response manga fans had when the manga was announced to end soon. The author made the world building too small.

Nice. I was afraid that it'll just get 2 seasons, and that'd be it. But I'm happy to see it get another season, or a movie sequel, whatever it is. Now, Sakamoto Days Season 2 when? Edit: Just got announced lol.
