The devil boy, Ichiro Umoregi, is the latest generation of Akuma-kun, who comes only once every 10,000 years. He was chosen by Solomon’s Flute, which can bend demons according to the user’s will. After watching the first season’s 12 episodes, is Akuma-kun Season 2 happening?

Is Akuma-kun Season 2 Confirmed?
As of writing, Netflix has not confirmed Akuma-kun Season 2, as have other recently released ONAs (original net animation) such as Blue Eye Samurai, Onimusha, Captain Laserhawk, and others.
Don't worry; given the surprising ending of the first season, which would make for a strong storyline in the second season, it's likely that the streaming giant will confirm it at some point in the future.
Besides, there are still a lot of questions that Akuma-kun Season 2 can answer.
From the construction of the Millennium Kingdom to Satan's and Gremory's nefarious intentions, the advent of the 12 apostles, and the possible return of Strophia, Akuma-kun has more stories to tell.
Akuma-kun (Ichiro Umoregi) also needs more character development, given his difficulty opening his heart, emotions, and feelings to others, particularly Mephisto III and his adoptive father, Shingo Umoregi.
In addition, the Millennium Research Institute can still serve some special clients who are having trouble with supernatural elements, demons, and monsters.
Akuma-kun and Mephisto III’s partnership is still far from over, even though their rent is always overdue in the anime.
On the other hand, if Akuma-kun receives the viewership it deserves worldwide, it’s most likely to receive a second season announcement before the end of the year.

Akuma-kun Season 2 Release Date Predictions
If Netflix confirms Akuma-kun Season 2, it'll likely be released in 2024, in the same month as the first season.
The first season of Akuma-kun premiered in November 2023, and the second season is expected to premiere in November 2024.
This is frequently the case when a new show gets a second season. The average wait period is one to two years, depending on the pace of production, casting, script composition, and other factors.
Important announcements and updates on new episodes are usually made by Netflix a week or later after the season concludes, so keep an eye out for Akuma-kun Season 2 news online.
For the time being, anticipate reading more news and information leading up to the release of Akuma-kun Season 2.
What to Expect From Akuma-kun Season 2
Akuma-kun Season 2 may maintain its episodic style, with Akuma-kun and Mephisto III taking on fascinating supernatural cases at the Millennium Research Institute involving demons, ghosts, monsters, black magic, and more.
Perhaps their relationship will improve, as the two have always struggled to get along.
Although Akuma-kun is a human, his attitude and feelings are more demon-like than Mephisto III's, who is half-human and half-demon.
We also expect Akuma-kun's relationship with his adoptive father, Shingo Umoregi, to strengthen.
The anime may also disclose Akuma-kun's true parents and why he was in the demon realm when Shingo and Mephisto II discovered him.
More information about the shackled woman in red, which Strophaia wants to free, may also be given to viewers in Akuma-kun Season 2.
At the same time, the creation of the Millennium Kingdom, which Shingo has always been talking about in the first season,
Not to mention, Gremory’s unpredictable move by the end of the first season completely caught us by surprise. How will the second season continue?
