The World's Finest Assassin stood out during the Fall 2021 anime season with many fans craving more. Now, The World's Finest Assassin Season 2 is being discussed once more.
Isekai anime fans found Season 1 enjoyable, if not particularly original. The first season only begins to touch on Lugh's ascension from our own world's finest assassin, to a highborn assassin in a magical world, with a goddess-given quest.
So, will a second season carry the adventure forward?

Is The World's Finest Assassin Season 2 Confirmed?
The World's Finest Assassin Season 2 was finally confirmed in September 2023.
Silver Link, which worked on the anime along with Studio Palette, specializes in isekai, so we aren't surprised that they decided to continue adapting this story.
Unlike some other studios, Silver Link has been known to produce second seasons for anime such as My Next Life as a Villainess.
As of writing, there's no further news about the second season of the anime, other than its release announcement.

The World's Finest Assassin Season 2 Plot
The World's Finest Assassin follows an elderly assassin who did some damage in his time. However, his superiors decide that he's outlived his usefulness; a fact that results in his death.
The assassin is then reborn with the help of a goddess, who gives him two options. He can either get reincarnated without any memories or retain his memories in true isekai fashion.
Opting for the latter, he starts his new life as a noble who retains the skills from his previous life.
In doing so, he gets implicated in the goddess' plan to kill a very powerful hero, who is going to destroy the world.
Lugh is quite young for the best part of the first season, so Season 2 will likely feature a young adult Lugh's attempts to defeat the hero.
