In interview earlier this year, series director Seiji Kishi mentioned how support of the anime has been tremendous, with the sales and popularity of the series being surprisingly high – ranking 1st for the season, and that further support of the series can lead to the future development of the series. He mentions that there are currently plans for this, which also include pushing the story into new unexplored directions. This is also somewhat evident with the first release of Sonoko After, straight after the anime’s completion, with fans earlier demanding a further conclusion to the series. Regardless, if there was more continued support of the series the second season of the anime will be made.
