Anki anime will have a sequel titled Tougen Anki: Nikko Kegon
Falls Arc.
The
announcement was accompanied by a trailer subtitled in English and a visual
image that highlights the character Hayate Todoroki, hinting that
he will have a crucial role in this new stage. The first season, which
adapted Yura Urushibara's manga, concluded after 24
action-packed episodes, having begun airing on July 11 and entering the
"Nerima Arc" in October.

scripted by Yukie Sugawara. The character design was in charge
of Ryoko Amisaki, while the powerful soundtrack was composed
