So, following the announcement of the series Season 2, here’s what you need to know about Hyakushō Kizoku.
Hyakushō Kizoku renewed for Season 2
On December 18, it was announced that Hyakushō Kizoku would return for its second season.
At present, this is all the information we have about Hyakushō Kizoku (also known in English as The Peasant Noble) Season 2.
However, the first season premiered on Tokyo MX on July 7. It had 12 episodes and each was roughly four minutes long. Although it hasn’t been confirmed yet, we can expect Season 2 to follow the same format.
Hyakushō Kizoku plot
We don’t have the details on the plot for Hyakushō Kizoku Season 2 yet. However, given that Season 1 depicted Arakawa’s life as a farmer in Hokkaido for seven years after graduating from agricultural school and before becoming a manga artist, it’s likely that Season 2 will continue in the same vein.
Hailing from a multigenerational farming family, er time working on her family farm also influenced her work on her popular Silver Spoon manga, a slice-of-life series about students at an agricultural school.
Cast and crew
We don’t have the official cast and crew yet for Season 2. However, Season 1 was produced by Pie in the Sky Studios and directed by Inui-san!’s Yutaro Sawada. Ayana Matsumoto handled the character design and also worked as the animation director. And the anime’s ending theme song, Cyan Innocence, was performed by FRAM.
Season 1 stars the following:
- Mutsumi Tamura as Hiromu Arakawa
- Mariko Honda as Ishii-san
- Shigeru Chiba as Oyaji-dono
- Kujira as Okan
While we have very little information about Season 2, we can expect more information about the upcoming series in 2024, speculated to have a Summer debut on the Tokyo MX channel. It’s international streaming platform is still unknown. But, just like Season 1, we can expect a DVD copy to be available soon after the series concludes.
