Fruits Basket, written by Natsuki Takaya and the manga ran from 1998 to 2006.

Hakusensha published it, and the genre includes Supernatural, Comedy, and Romance. Let’s take a look at Fruits Basket Season 2 dub release date and all the details regarding the same.

1. Season 2 Release Date

Dubbed versions of the first two episodes are already on Crunchyroll and Funimation. New Dub releases will come out side by side as well.

Before the current pandemic, the first three episodes of Fruits Basket English dubbed version were announced to release on 30 March 2020, but since many delays and changes have taken place.

Season 2 premiered on 07 April 2020 and will have a total of 25 episodes like the first one; this has been officially confirmed, Season 2 will probably end in 2020 September.

2. Expected Storyline/Plot

Members of the Sohma family are animals, and they transform into their original forms when someone of the opposite sex hugs them. The animals match the Chinese zodiac. Season 1 has only introduced half of the members so far, which includes Yuki (the rat), Hatsuharu (the ox), and Shigure (the dog). The new season will reveal the remaining zodiac animals: horse, rooster, and others.

On the other hand, the character of the head of the Sohma Family, Akito, is still left undiscovered. All we know so far is that he gives a pretty dark vibe with his pale black clothes. We are expecting a major development in this area as some more dark secrets of the Sohma family are expected to be revealed.

Apart from the supernatural stuff, being a perfect shonen, Fruits Basket also offers a charming love story. So far we’ve seen Tohru showing kindness to Kyo, and Kyo being protective. In the upcoming season, the relationship between Tohru and Kyo will flourish.
