After Keith and Koku solved the incidents successfully , the world has regained its composure. In the months since then, Keith returns to the RIS to conduct his own investigation, and Koku is living a peaceful life with Yuna. They are visited by Kirisame, who was once supposed to have broken up with Kurou in death at the Faura Blanca Institute…


Why has it taken Production I.G so long to produce B: The Beginning Succession?

Any and all anime series take a significant amount of time to produce, even for studios like Production I.G.

Since the release of B: The Beginning, Production I.G has worked on a further nine anime series, including the ongoing immensely popular volleyball series Haikyuu!!. With much of the studio’s manpower directed towards other projects, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the second season has taken so long to produce.
