A visual teaser featuring Ashito has been released to mark the announcement, hinting at more emotional and high-stakes football drama to come. The anime adaptation is based on the manga by Yugo Kobayashi, which has been serialized in Weekly Big Comic Spirits since 2015. The series captures the coming-of-age story of Ashito, a gifted young player who earns a spot on a prestigious J-League youth team and strives to grow into a professional.

Since its debut, Aoashi has gained widespread acclaim for its realistic depiction of youth football, emotional storytelling, and technical insight into the game. With over 23 million copies in circulation and 38 volumes already released (with Volume 39 launching on April 30), the manga’s continued popularity makes this second season announcement highly anticipated.

The anime’s first season aired from April to September 2022, earning praise for its animation quality and character development. With TMS Entertainment returning for Season 2, expectations are high for a continuation that builds on the emotional and athletic growth of Ashito and his teammates.

As Aoashi gears up for its next big play in 2026, soccer and anime fans alike can look forward to another round of inspiring matches, intense rivalries, and the unwavering spirit of youth football.
