Everything we know so far

So I'm a Spider, So What? season 2 is still a no-show and fans are wondering if the creators will renew it for a second season this year. Following the conclusion of the first season in 2021, the series has been on a hiatus amidst the brewing anticipation from the fans.

Originally a web novel series, So I'm a Spider, So What? was later adapted into a light novel series written by Okina Baba and illustrated by Tsukasa Kiryu. This isekai narrative had made quite the name for itself in the genre and it ultimately found itself on the screen as well, receiving praise from fans.

Everything we know so far about So I'm a Spider, So What? Season 2

Unfortunately, the creators of the isekai series So I'm a Spider, So What? have not yet announced the production of a new season. The animation studio Millepensee has not provided any hint as to whether season 2 will get a green light.

At the moment, we can only speculate that if the studio is hasty with the announcement, the second season of might see a late 2023 or an early 2024 release. However, readers should hold their breath for an official confirmation.

The first season, which began airing on January 8, 2021, was split into two cours, each containing 12 episodes. Reportedly, the anime has adapted the original light novel series up to Volume 3 of a whopping total of 16 volumes, so there is no doubt that more seasons are required if the producers of the show wish to be faithful to the source material.

  • Ariel- Sumire Uesaka
  • Sophia- Ayana Taketatsu
  • Wrath- Ryota Osaka
