Fans are now looking forward to the second season of "Inuyashiki" after Hiro Shishigami and Ichiro Inuyashiki's epic battle. However, it looks like this might be too far from happening as the manga version, which the "Inuyashiki: Last Hero" anime is based on, has already ended.
According to reports, there will be no "Inuyashiki: Last Hero" season 2 as its manga version is already finished. With that, fans should enjoy its remaining episode that will be aired on Thursday, Dec. 21.
"Inuyashiki: Last Hero" is based on the manga series by Hiroya Oku that shows how people could change under great circumstances. It tells the story of a 58-year-old man who has oncological disease.
As the newly landed alien ship accidentally kills him, the space invaders insert combat systems to his body to cover up the accident. With that, the old man becomes a fighting cyborg on the inside, while its physical feature still shows his sick, frail self.
Unfortunately, his story will come to an end as there will be no "Inuyashiki" season 2. However, fans are still in for a treat as a live-action movie based on the anime will be hitting the big screen.
