The anime adaptation of “The Apothecary Diaries” by Natsu Hyuga and Touko Shino concluded its first season this past spring.

Consequently, the announcement of a second season came as no shock to fans.

According to Marvel’s benchmarks, Chloe Zhao’s “Eternals” underperformed both critically and financially. When it premiered, it was panned by critics and currently holds one of the lowest ratings within the Marvel Cinematic Universe on Rotten Tomatoes, surpassed only by “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.” Consequently, there’s been little demand for a sequel to this film, which Marvel Studios is carefully monitoring. Kevin Feige, head of Marvel Studios, has stated that no plans are in place for “Eternals 2” at present.
