With the first season being so well-received, it is no surprise that the show was a hit among fans. Owing to this fact, the expectations and anticipations for a second season of the series are soaring. Here’s everything that is known thus far concerning the show’s renewal

The Premise of Land of the Lustrous

The premise of the series is futuristic, being set in the far future. The site of its proceedings is a land inhabited by a life form that enjoys immortality called the Lustrous. These inhabitants are the embodiments of gemstones. They are 28 of them, led by Kongo, their teacher. They are at warheads with the Lunarians, who appear every few days looking to harvest the bodies of the Lustrous for decorative purposes.

The series follows a Lustrous nick-named Phos primarily, although it does shift focus more often than not. Phos is the youngest of the Lustrous, owing to which he is not permitted to engage in battle. As a result, he is tasked by Kongo to assemble a natural history. In this process, Phos meets a night watch named Cinnabar, who is venomous and therefore isolated from the Lustrous. Taking sympathy at his plight, Phos decides to find him a better job, kicking off the proceedings of the series.

When Will Land of the Lustrous Season 2 Release Coming ?

As much as there is excitement surrounding the second season, Orange has not yet announced the show’s renewal, which is surprising to many given the almost immediate success of the first season and the impact it has on the sales of the manga, nearly doubling it. The show was also a huge hit among fans, with many people cosplaying its characters to this day.

The manga itself has enough source material to substantiate a second season, however, that holds no relevance unless the makers and the production team show an interest in renewing the series. Some estimates state that the series may get renewed in 2022, but these are mostly just baseless forecasts, and only time will tell if they take actual shape.
