Girls’ Last Tour, a 12-episode television anime adaptation of a Japanese manga series, written and illustrated by Tsukumizu. Produced by White Fox, especially covering the manga’s first 4 volumes, aired in Japan between October and December 2017. Originally, aired on AT-X, Tokyo MX, BS11, and many local networks. Later, also got released on Amazon Prime, making it one of the popular and binge-watched anime.
Since its premiere, it has received a huge positive response from the audience. Fans have been living in uncertainty whether there will be another season or not.
Here’s all that you need to know about the release date of Girls Last Tour Season 2, renewal status, and many more.
Renewal Status:
As per the sources to date, The White Fox has not yet announced anything about this manga series. Apparently, it has not been renewed at the time of writing.
It is heartbreaking as the series has received recognition and gained popularity. Yet they are few concerns that we would like to mention:
The first season has already covered the first 4 volumes. And primarily only 2 volumes are left which is not sufficient enough to go with another season. Besides this, the monetary budget seems another big trouble for this series. Mostly, an anime is expected to exceed 4,000 sales in volume average before it can be approved for a new season whereas 2497 copies were sold in the first volume, and it continued with 2387 sales in the volume two sales.
That certainly can be an obstacle behind renewal. Though the anime gained popularity that’s in OOTD and other platforms, only 27 people on social media handle Twitter follow the anime’s official account. And in worldwide popularity score, it is above average that is 77.1 %.
Thus, in a way, there are a lot of troubles in the path of renewal that could certainly take few more years to come to a final decision. Well, that’s only a guess, the scenario might change depends on the production house and other factors.
Season 2 Release Date:
As for the mentioned reasons above, probably no season 2 will be premiered any time soon. Though if there is an update regarding this, we will inform you from time to time. But for the time being it is hard to say that there will be another season.
