Quick Links
The second season ofTower of Godwas one of the most awaited anime this year. Despite the good reception for the series, the latestTower of Godepisodes haven’t been getting the same attention as season one did back in 2020.
The time-lapse between the two seasons could be one of the reasons. Another anime based on a South Korean title,Solo Leveling, has been able to keep the hype for season two, which will air only one year after the first one. Of course, this is not the only thing that might explain whyTower of Godseemingly hasn’t been living up to the hype.
The new season has been airing for two consecutive cours, since July 7. Nowit is confirmed it will end with episode 26. The 25th episode is scheduled to air on December 22, but many series take a break during the last week of the year in Japan, soit’s likely to end on Jun 13, 2025. A new season could be announced when it finishes broadcasting.
