[Classroom of the Elite] Could there be a second season? Megumi Karuizawa’s booming popularity has sprouted a new anime adaptation

What are the realistic possibilities for a second anime season?

出典 : Amazon.co.jp

The first season of Yohjitsu’s anime can be summarized as “the disc sales are not far from the second season line” and “the effect on the original work is outstanding”.
This is a phenomenon that often happens in anime based on manga, and in this case, even if the disc sales are around 1,000 copies, it is not uncommon for sequels to be made for the 2nd season, and even more so for the 3rd and 4th seasons.
This kind of situation seems to happen especially with popular works like Jump, Yanjan, and Magazine.

This is simply because the publishers are able to raise money for the anime due to the overwhelming sales of the books.
In other words, depending on the sales of the original work, even if the disc sales are low, there is still a chance of a second season.

Although there are not many of them, a similar case exists for light novels.

Mage Orphen, which was a huge hit in the 1990s and has a total of 14 million copies in circulation, didn’t do so well when it was once made into an anime, but after a long time, it will be re-animated in 2020.
Other re-animes include the 8.2 million-copy Kino’s Journey and the 4.72 million-copy Boogie Pop series.

A recent example is “Danmachi” which has sold 12 million copies, and although it sold less than 3,000 copies of the second season’s discs, the third season was decided early.
The Rise of the Hero of the Shield”, which sold 7.8 million copies, was announced to be produced for a third season, rather than a second season, even though it sold over 2,000 discs.
Furthermore, “The World’s Strongest in Mundane Occupations”, which will be broadcast in the summer of 2019, has been confirmed for a second season with a total series circulation of 2.5 million copies and disk sales of approximately 3,000 copies.

Yohmi’s circulation totaled 2.7 million copies of the series as of May 2019, when volume 11 was released.
There aren’t many light novels that average 250,000 copies of a volume, and it’s a number that can be called a blockbuster… Compared to “Mere Old Man”, the disc sales are only half of what they were, so we have to say that the possibility of a second season is low at this point.
It is hard to believe that Lerche, who worked on the first season, will actively work on a second season since it has already ended with poor results.

However, if the original work continues to sell well and reaches 5 million copies, there is a possibility of making another anime.
However, even if it continues to sell at the current rate, it will take 3 to 4 years to reach 5 million copies.
Even if it does happen, it’s still a long way off.

Megumi Karuizawa leading to a new anime adaptation?

出典 : Amazon.co.jp

In order for the series to reach a total of 5 million copies in a short period of time, it needs forces other than the original novel.
That’s where I’d like to focus my attention, and that’s why I’d like to focus on the comic book version.

Currently, Yuyu Ichino-sensei has a manga version of the main story serialized in Monthly Comic Alive, but there is a possibility that a new spin-off work will be created in the future.
It is because even after the broadcast of the anime, the popularity of the original work is increasing, especially the popularity of Megumi Karuizawa has been increasing rapidly.

Yoo, actually, in the year when the original sales increased greatly after the anime broadcast, “This light novel is amazing! It was never ranked in the Top 10 in
However, when it was announced in 2018, Kono Lano 2019 ranked 6th, and the following year, Kono Lano 2020, it rose to 4th place.
Even more amazingly, Megumi Karuizawa proudly took first place in the “Female Character Category”.

The female character division of this noano, Misaka Mikoto of a certain series has won the first place 4 times in a row, and moreover, in the past 10 years, she has won the first place 9 times, and the state of monopoly had continued.
To surpass her and become the first place is a true accomplishment.
Karuizawa was fast becoming a representative figure for light novel heroines.

Actually, she wasn’t particularly popular from the beginning.
I had the impression that Honami Ichinose was more popular than her in the beginning.
However, after she made a step forward with volume 4, which was the first volume of the anime cover, she gradually built up a dominant position, and the volume 7, which was released soon after the anime, proved to be the decisive factor in her popularity.

This Karuizawa’s popularity was not a transient thing, but rather she became the work’s signature heroine, most often portrayed in collaborations and perks, and now has the appearance of being a complete main heroine.
Her popularity has become so well known to non-Rano fans that many of them have picked up the original story because of her.

Because of this situation, it can be said that there is a high possibility that a spin-off work with Karuizawa as the main protagonist will be born in the future, like the manga “Toaru Kagaku no Railgun” with Misaka Mikoto as the main character.
And with the current popularity of Karuizawa, there is a good chance that it will be a hit.
If this becomes a reality, there is a good chance that the anime will be re-animated or the spin-offs will be adapted into an anime.

Summary

Normally, I would say that there is little chance of a new anime adaptation, but I feel that Karuizawa’s current popularity has come to the point where it has turned that situation upside down.
Maybe the unfortunate circumstances of the anime have sparked a fire in the hearts of the fans?
In many ways, this is one to watch for in the future!
