Grand Blue will have an important announcement very soon

The popular "Grand Blue" franchise has announced a special event that will take place on September 29 at 8:00 p.m. (Japan time), in what will be the first live broadcast of the series. The event will be broadcast through YouTube and will feature the participation of Chika Anzai as a presenter, along with guests Toa Yukinari and Kana Asumi. During the broadcast, it has been hinted that there will be important announcements related to the franchise's tenth anniversary projects, which has generated great expectation among fans.

One of the points that has ignited speculation is the possibility that the long-awaited second season of the anime will be announced. In May of this year, a leak surfaced that claimed that the second season of "Grand Blue" was already in production. However, since then there has been no official confirmation from the studios or the production team, which has left fans in suspense. This upcoming event on September 29 seems to be the perfect occasion for the information to finally be confirmed.

If the news is true, the second season would arrive after a long period of waiting. Recall that the first season of the anime aired in 2018, and since then there have been no new animated installments. In addition, the live-action film "Grand Blue" was released in 2020, so more than four years have passed without significant new content from the franchise in audiovisual format.

The "Grand Blue" franchise has enjoyed great popularity since its premiere. The anime, based on the manga by Kenji Inoue and Kimitake Yoshioka, won over the audience with its irreverent humor and college lifestyle full of parties and absurd situations. Despite the manga continuing to be published successfully, the lack of a second season has been a constant source of discussion among fans, who hope to see more adventures of Iori Kitahara and his friends on their chaotic journey through college life and diving.

Grand Blue Synopsis

Iori Kitahara moves to the coastal city of Izu for his first year at university and settles in Grand Blue, his uncle's diving shop. Iori has high hopes and dreams of having the ideal college experience, but when he walks into the store he is sucked into the alcoholic activities of the carefree Dive Club members who frequent the venue. Persuaded by upperclassmen Shinji Tokita and Ryuujirou Kotobuki, Iori reluctantly joins their bizarre party.

His cousin Chisa Kotegawa enters later and catches him red-handed, earning Iori his total contempt. Based on the popular comedy manga by Kenji Inoue and Kimitake Yoshioka, Grand Blue follows Iori's misadventures with his eccentric new friends as he strives to make his ideal college dream come true, while also learning to scuba dive.
