Blue Eye Samurai season 2 is officially coming
Blue Eye Samurai revolves around the compelling story of a young woman on a quest for revenge, and its diverse adult themes have resonated strongly with audiences. Rolling Stone described the series as “an incredible, deeply troubling example of how animation can be used to create worlds, characters and adventures that are as vivid as live action, and sometimes even more so.”
Similarly, Ready Steady Cut describes the series as not only the best animated series of the year, but one of the best in Netflix’s entire catalog.
The second season is expected to offer more intense and gripping storytelling, continuing protagonist Mizu’s journey of revenge. Series creators Amber Noizumi and Michael Green hinted that Mizu will have “a lot more blood to spill” in the upcoming season.
The duo expressed their gratitude to global audiences for their passion for Mizu and his revenge-driven story, emphasizing their commitment to realistically bringing the story to life in Edo period Japan.
While the finale of the first season left the door open for further adventures, plot details for the second season remain tightly under wraps. Noizumi and Green did not reveal when production will begin, leaving fans curious about the continuation of Mizu’s saga.
