The Vampire Dies In No Time Season 2 Release Date, Characters And Plot - What We Know So Far

With the conclusion of its 12th episode, it almost seems like "The Vampire Dies in No Time" is gone for good. However, we encourage you to avoid feeling dismayed if this goofy gag anime happens to be your bag. The original manga by author Itaru Bonnoki still has many more chapters that have yet to be adapted. In other words, just like the venerable, vulnerable vampire Dralc, "The Vampire Dies in No Time" will soon rise from its ashes to live again.

While they have yet to announce a release date for the show's second season, the anime's creators at studio Madhouse have confirmed that a second season is coming (via Crunchyroll). This opens the way for a lot of speculation as to what surprises the upcoming episodes have to offer. With that in mind, here is everything we know so far about the release date, characters, and plot of "The Vampire Dies in No Time" Season 2.

We may not know with exact certainty when "The Vampire Dies in No Time" Season 2 will be coming out. However, we do know that it is coming. On December 20, the same day as the finale of Season 1, the series' official Twitter account posted an announcement confirming the production of Season 2. This was paired with a teaser trailer for the upcoming season, showing off some of the upcoming characters and gags, as well as plenty of shots of the fan-favorite John the armadillo.

As for when Season 2 will premiere, looking at the previous announcement and release schedule for Season 1 should provide some insight as to when we can expect the next release. According to Anime News Network, the series was first announced in May 2020, and officially released in October 2021. Using this schedule as a model, we can estimate that Season 2 of "The Vampire Dies in No Time" will likely come out sometime in the fall of 2022.

Aside from that loveable little armadillo, John, "The Vampire Dies in No Time" Season 2 is expected to have all the familiar faces fans know from the first round of episodes. At the epicenter of this cast of characters is the dynamic duo of Dralc and Ronald. 

The former is a high-ranking vampire said to be invincible but is actually a complete pushover who dies from the slightest injuries and is just able to resurrect himself quickly. The latter is a professional vampire hunter who teams up with Dralc after mistakenly invading and destroying his castle.

From then on, the duo encounters all kinds of creepy creatures and melodramatic vampire hunters with each new episode. From Dralc's esteemed, yet odd vampire family, to a vampire whose powers make people repeat raunchy phrases, there's no end to the ridiculous figures the two come across, and there are sure to be many more introduced in Season 2.

As a gag manga, "The Vampire Dies in No Time" doesn't have a strict plot. Like Season 1, Season 2 is expected to follow a purely episodic format. There won't be many long-lasting plotlines, but each episode will provide its own wacky tale. Even so, there are a number of running plot threads that give the series its continuity. One of the most prominent is the development and sales of Ronald's series of books based on his experience as a vampire hunter.

The real appeal of the series, however, is the onslaught of jokes and sight gags the show relishes in as Ronald and Dralc struggle to make it as successful and popular hunters. No matter what situation these two get into, it is absolutely assured to be as ridiculous as humanly (or vampirically) possible. Prepare for more laughs when "The Vampire Dies in No Time" Season 2 is released.
