Delicious in Dungeon secures a season 2 renewal!

Just as we hoped and prayed for, Delicious in Dungeon has officially been renewed for a second season not long after the anime's premiere season concluded. This is a great sign because it not only means that the anime left a good impression on fans but also that it could have many more seasons to come. But before we get there, let's celebrate the exciting season 2 renewal news.

Check out the announcement via Delicious in Dungeon's X account:

There's, of course, some information that we don't yet have, such as a release date or cast announcements. However, knowing that the animation studio Studio Trigger is currently working on the upcoming installment, we're sure we will receive more updates much sooner than later.

While we wait to receive more information regarding when the highly anticipated sophomore season will be released, we do have a pretty good understanding of what you may be able to expect it to be about. Allow us to tell you below!

Season 2 will likely focus on Thistle's antagonism of the main cast

One seed that the first season of Delicious in Dungeon gave us was the introduction of Thistle, an elf who had the misfortune of witnessing the death of his former king, the father of Delgal. Because of this, Thistle grows extremely paranoid and angry towards people like Laios who just happened to be there during the entire ordeal.

And so, Thistle follows Laois to the ends of the world as part of his desire to do anything to defend what he cherishes.

The exploration of Thistle's journey and how this elf ends up getting his revenge on Laios and the rest of the gang is a large part of the Thistle Arc, so we fully expect season 2 to cover this entire arc. Our expectations are also backed by the fact that the announcement trailer of what's to come includes Thistle at the end.

In addition to the Thistle Arc, we wouldn't be surprised if the sophomore season covered a few more arcs such as the Dwarf City Ruins Arc and the Lunatic Magician's House Arc. These arcs come before the Thistle Arc in the manga, but for the sake of the anime's story, it seems these arcs are being written to come sometime after. But don't fret, we do believe that they will come!

As we wait to learn more information about Delicious in Dungeon season 2, be sure to stream the entire first season on Netflix. And don't forget to stay tuned with Anime Away to learn more about what's to come!
