What to Know for Frieren Season 2

Tomoya Kitagawa will be stepping up as the new director for Season 2, with Keiichiro Saito (our brilliant director from Season 1) moving into a supporting role. Daiki Harashina will serve as assistant director, and Tomohiro Suzuki will handle its composition. The character designs will now be handled by Takasemaru, Keisuke Kojima, and Yuji Fujinaka instead of Reiko Nagasawa from Season 1, but Evan Call returns to compose the music again. Can’t wait to see what this talented team brings to life in the new season!
