Season 2 of the animated series "Dies Irae" by Genco has already been confirmed for 2018. The confirmation for the second season came ahead the release of season 1's final episode.
The first season is composed of 12 episodes in total with the final episode to be released next. The last episode is expected to be released on Dec. 22.
The final episode is technically the 12th episode, but the anime started numbering the episodes from 0. According to reports, season 2 of the anime series will be released on July 13, 2018 online and as a Blu-Ray box set.
A.C.G.T will once again release all episodes for season 2. There are still no updates from Genco or A.C.G.T about the plotline of the second season and if there will be new characters to be added. Unlike the first season, the second season will release six OVA episodes.
