''Highschool of the dead'' the popular manga series was aired last in Japan on Sept. 20, 2010. There are some rumours that the US-based ''Anime Network'' is planning to produce the season 2.
The Japanese authorities are apprehensive about adopting any storylines based on the apocalypse. Hence in spite of having a huge fan base, the season 2 was not aired.
In the US, the animated series ''Highschool Of The Dead'' was broadcast on ''Anime Network'' and gained immediate popularity. In Australia and New Zealand the series was distributed through ''Madman Entertainment.'' It is surprising that the anime series was more popular in the West than the home country Japan or other Eastern countries.
As per the last information on Kpopstarz, the "High School Of The Dead" new season is in the works. However, the information on when-release.com says that there is no definite date of release confirmed from the makers.
However as per the latest rumour on the social media, the US-based ''Anime Network'' is planning to produce the new season of this popular manga. My anime list has some information on that.
Date release is positive that the manga ''High school of the Dead'' will continue and the new season will be out soon. Since there was a video posted on YouTube with the trailer of the ''High School of the Dead season 2's'' trailer, the fans are waiting for some more news on the release of the new season.
Shoji Sato who had illustrated ''Highschool Of The Dead'' has also written and illustrated Triage X. ''The cover flap of volume 1 of ''Triage X'' was created because of the long hiatus of "Highschool of the Dead." Thus, in terms of content and theme, the two are very comparable.'' Sato has mentioned in Wikia.
So from this, it can be assumed that the original makers of ''High School of Dead'' are working on Triage X and are not going to release the season 2 of ''Highschool Of The Dead'' anytime soon.
YHM will keep its readers informed about any new developments.
