If you are like me, hoping for a release date news for the second season of The King Of Fighters Destiny anime, then you are in fo some sad news. According to couple sources, work on the second season has not even started.
In fact, despite the first season pulling big numbers, and receiving great reviews from fans and media outlets alike, SNK has yet to officially order a second season. What is also strange is how the chairman of SNK corporation, Mr Ge Zhihui, announced back in January that work is ongoing on the second season, but according to my sources nothing has been done on it yet as of last month. On the bright side, Idragons production, the company that is producing the series, has not received a series cancellation notice from SNK either. This means, while the show is not officially cancelled, it is also has not been officially renewed.
The king Of Fighters Destiny was SNK’s first animated project in a while. The web series focused on the first game of the KOF saga, KOF94, while combining the Fatal fury story in it as well. Initial plans for the series was for it to last 3 seasons and end with a full feature movie. A very successful game of the same name was released this year and both adapts and elaborates of the KOF Destiny anime series.

Is The King Of Fighters Destiny Cancelled? Or could it be that SNK is indeed working on a sequel but has hired a different studio? Time will tell!
