Akatsuki no Yona Season 2 rumours
I know no one likes "will this get a second season?" posts so I'll apologise for my sin now.
Recently watched this, googled to see if there's any murmerings of a season 2. I'm seeing a lot of references to past confirmations and such, some people saying this year will be the year (which seems unlikely at this point...)
Anyone who's been following the series for a while that can say whether there's anything to this? Or is this series most likely dead?

I doubt it. Where did you hear about it? I don't think it's going to happen, haven't heard anything about it either.
But if you're into manga, you can read from where the anime stopped. It's a good manga and I can guarantee you that the best parts of the story are yet to come. Definetly worth the read.
I've been considering getting into the manga for a while. How much further past the end of season 1 does it go? And how close to wrapping up does it seem to be?
Anime stop at around Chapter 42. Manga is on chapter 144 right now, is still ongoing, and doesnt look like its gonna end anytime soon
Wow, seriously?? Oh, are these longer, monthly chapters?
usually around 30 pages per chapter
The series itself? No idea it's been on my PTW a while, possibly since the season itself.
Season 2, was just typing in "Akatsuki no Yona Season 2" into google (which is why I'm checking here)
I don't dislike manga, but I'm not a big fan of scanlations... I'm often overwhelmed by too many spelling and grammar mistakes...
Nethertheless I'll add it to the Plan to Read.
If you are in the USA and have the extra spending money, every volume on Amazon has been anywhere from $2~$7 at some point on preorder. I was in the same bind as you in that I loved the show and was dying for a second season, but it definitely doesn't seem like its ever going to happen so I starting picking up the manga when it started getting released in the US (and at such good discounts!). We're up to volume 7 now and have hit the very first chapter of material that was not covered in the adaptation. Volume 9 should be completely new stuff.
I'm UK and they're seven quid. I didn't realise vol 7 included new stuff. When I looked at the blurb it seemed to indicate that it was mid way through the pirate arc.
It has one new chapter that the anime didn't bother to animate. It was an almost one off silly moment type of thing that happens right after the pirate arc. It got a few laughs out of me so I enjoyed it, but its not at all essential to the story which makes it easy to see why the adaptation passed it up.
