The hunger
for power never goes away, it just accumulates. To the delight of dark
fantasy fans, production company Point Set broke its
silence on Monday, April 27, by officially confirming that the
animated adaptation of the light novel written by Ichika
Isshiki and illustrated by fame, Berserk of Gluttony (Boshoku
no Berserk), will have a season 2. The long-awaited announcement,
which comes almost three years after the completion of its first installment,
landed alongside a new promotional image highlighting its protagonists, Fate
Graphite and the knight Roxy.
The
Deadly Voices Returning to Battle
Although a
specific premiere window for the new episodes has not yet been set, it is
expected that the main ensemble will return directly to the recording booths to
resume this bloody journey. Here are the main talents that bring the tragic but
lethal group of protagonists to life:
- Ryota
Ohsaka as Fate Graphite
Sadao
Maou en The Devil is a Part-Timer! y Marco Bodt en Attack
on Titan.
- Tomokazu
Seki como la espada negra Greed.
Gilgamesh en la franquicia Fate/stay night y
Sanemi Shinazugawa en Demon Slayer.
- Hisako
Tojo como Roxy.
Chiaki en Hinako Note y Kiruko en Yuragi-sou
no Yuuna-san.
- Misato
Matsuoka como Myne.
- Hitomi
Sekine como Eris.
Almost three years of waiting to satisfy hunger
La franquicia tiene cimientos bastante sólidos dentro de la
industria. Su historia inició en el célebre portal Shosetsuka ni Naro,
publicándose físicamente por Micro Magazine desde noviembre de 2017, al mismo tiempo
que la adaptación al manga a cargo de Daisuke Takino en Comic Ride mantiene
vivo el furor de los lectores.
The first
season that debuted in October 2023 was driven by Studio ACGT, with Tetsuya
Yanagisawa directing, Mariko Kunisawa overseeing the composition, and
Takafumi Furusawa in character design. This same central technical team is
expected to be in charge of captaining this recently announced sequel.
What
mysteries does Fate's insatiable gluttony hide?
For those
looking for a broken protagonist but with a terrible curse, this work is the
ideal choice. The narrative focuses on Fate, a young man oppressed and
humiliated daily because he was born with the useless ability of
"Gluttony", which condemns him to live perpetually hungry and in a
state of chronic weakness, no matter how much food he consumes.
The
absolute breaking point occurs the day he is forced to murder a dying thief. In
that instant, his true ability awakens: his "Gluttony" does not seek
normal food, but devours the stats, abilities and the very soul of his victims.
Overnight, Fate goes from being an outcast to the most terrifying hunter in the
kingdom, embarking on a grim path of ascent where he must learn to control this
dangerous power before hunger ends up eating away at his own sanity.
