I wonder if this being popular enough in America to inspire Funimation's first limited edition set has anything to do with the decision to give it a second season? Probably not, but it would be cool.

It's a cute show, and a sweet manga. I'm curious which arcs they're going to adapt now spoiler[the traveling to the past arc would be a good one to pick!]

I hope they do as well with season 2! also hope CR gets its again!

Again?

Are you confusing this with Kamisama Dolls?

Kamisama Kiss was licensed by Funimation (both as a simulcast, and for home video).

I am happy, but it seems a bit odd, the first season sales were not good enough for another season. It has been licensed to be dubbed to spanish, which means it is popular but not a big hitter. I wonder if this means someone with deep pockets gave the green light or anime production costs have been steadily going down (and/or stream revenue has been going up) and we will see more sequels from shows with poor disc sales.

Ahh, I'm so happy! I'm a little surprised though; I figured the bit with Kirihito at the end would just end up being a tease.

This is the most surprising second season announcement since Chihayafuru's, and it makes me just as happy.

And for the next big question, will Funimation pick it up? Was the first season enough of a seller for them to consider the 2nd? I bought the premium edition to show my support for those types of series being licensed (and also just because I really liked the series) - I'm hoping enough people did for Funimation to consider it.

*Fingers crossed*


I'm sure they will. They seem to like those kinds of titles because they have Ouran, etc. Besides, I'm pretty sure they're in the habit of picking up second seasons.

Awesome! I didn't expect this to get a second season! I read the manga after first season aired and now it's one of my favorites. As for the anime, I loved both the original Japanese and dub. x3

This is good news! I really liked this anime and I'm collecting the manga too.

I didn't know there was an OVA, is it available legal streaming somewhere (for US)?
