The trailer released on September 16, 2022, announced the release date of season 2. The exact release date is still unknown, although the second season of Edens Zero will start airing in April 2023.
The exact number of episodes is yet to be announced, but it is logical to assume that the new season will have between 12 and 25 episodes. Since, as the plot progresses, the story becomes more complex, it is difficult to predict which arcs will be adapted in season 2.
We can definitely expect adaptations of the Belial Gore arc (from chapters 69 to 99) and the Edens One arc (from chapters 100 to 104). The question remains whether the anime will begin covering the Aoi Cosmos saga.

About Edens Zero
The manga Edens Zero is written by Hiro Mashima, the author of Fairy Tail, who launched it in Weekly Shounen Magazine. It started publishing on June 27, 2018 and currently has 23 volumes. Kodansha Comics published the manga in English in digital and printed form.
The story follows Shiki Granbell, a boy adopted by Ziggy, the Demon King. He grew up on Granbell, surrounded by machines without a single friend, as humans hadn’t visited the planet in over 100 years. That changes when Rebecca Bluegarden, together with her friend Happy, lands in the Granbell Kingdom in order to make a B-Cube video. It was Shiki’s first contact with humans.
As the robots turn against them, Shiki, Rebecca, and Happy have to escape and so begins their adventure in Sakura Cosmos. Their goal is to find the goddess “Mother”, who can grant any wish. In addition, Shiki’s goal is to make as many friends as possible, which Rebecca and Happy will help him with.
Conclusion
The new season looks promising. Those who read the manga know that some of the best arcs are yet to come. Now we just hope that the animation and production of the anime adaptation will be as good as before. We expect more news about Edens Zero 2nd Season.
