‘Hell’s Paradise’ Season 2 to Premiere on Crunchyroll in 2026

As a seasoned gamer with a soft spot for anime, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement upon hearing that Crunchyroll will be streaming the second season of Hell’s Paradise simultaneously with its Japan broadcast! Having been introduced to this dark fantasy action-packed psychological thriller during its initial release in 2023, I found myself captivated by the intricate narrative set in Japan’s Edo period.

Crunchyroll has declared that the second season of the anime series “Hell’s Paradise” can now be watched online at the exact same time as its Japanese airing.

During the annual Jump Festa 2025, held in the fall, a fresh promotional video was debuted, and it was announced that Season 2 of “Hell’s Paradise” would be released in January 2026.

According to famous manga creator Yuji Kaku, “Hell’s Paradise” is a gripping dark fantasy action-thriller series set during Japan’s Edo era. Renowned animation studio MAPPA brought this captivating tale to life, with its first season debuting in April 2023. Just a couple of months after the season finale in late June, the studio confirmed that production on the next installment had already started.
