The Manga Arcs to Be Adapted in Season 2
The first season of Frieren: After the Journey successfully adapted the initial four arcs of Kanehito Yamada’s original manga, covering just about half of the available material found in Volumes 1 through 7. Currently, a total of 13 volumes have been published, paving the way for Madhouse to explore a wealth of narratives yet to be brought to the screen.
Next in line for adaptation is the eighth arc, where Frieren and her companions continue their adventures following the mage exams. With Fern having earned her esteemed First-Class Mage certification, the group can, in theory, embark on their journey with newfound security.
