Thank you to those who watched the first season of Hell’s Paradise and waiting for the second season! I am happy to be able to work on the story of Gabimaru and his friends again. In the first season, each of the characters survived while facing troubles. How will we depict the changes in their hearts this time? How should we depict that scene in the original manga? I am back the days to think about Gabimaru and his friends every day. The second season of Hell’s Paradise is being produced in a very good atmosphere with a lot of staff members who are full of love for the series. We hope you are looking forward to it.
