Arifureta: From Commonplace to World’s Strongest season one has been a huge success despite its setbacks in production.
Since the announcement of Arifureta season two, the anime has been creating a buzz on the internet.
Arifureta is one of those anime where there is sharp controversy within the fanbase due to its animation.
Readers of the manga and light novel series are probably rightfully wary of the upcoming season two, while anime-only fans who love the isekai harem genre are hungry for more episodes.
The first season faced a lot of issues with its production quality. Hopefully, the change in studio and the main director for the second season will fix the pitfalls of the past.
