The creators got busy in other manga animation series like Natsuki Takaya and anime director Akitaro Daichi and it seemed like Fruits Basket season 2 is never gonna happen. However, nostalgia for the series again rose up in 2019 when director Yoshihide Ibata came up with a new Fruits Basket anime show. It was adapted from the original manga series and promised to cover the entire story.
However, you need to know that the real manga of Fruits Basket is 23 volume thus it’ll take a long time to complete the full adaptation. And you’ll be happy to know that season 2 is gonna AIR in spring 2020.
