Netflix Renewed 'Alice in Borderland' Two Weeks After Season One Launched

Based on the stills of "Alice in Borderland" season two that has been released by Netflix, the story seems to focus on Ryohei Arisu and Yuzuha Usagi.

According to Comicbook, it seems like Usagi is rocking some wild new gear while another still shows Arisu looking taken aback at something off-screen. The still also shows the pair are together where the leads huddled together as they plot out their next big strategy.

 As of writing, there is no release date yet for "Alice in Borderland" season two.

Two weeks after season one launched, Netflix renewed the series, and its first eight episodes were met with praise. As expected, its success of the Netflix series brought attention to the Alice in Borderland manga written by Haro Aso.

Synopsis of the series says eighteen-year-old Ryohei Arisu is sick of his life. School sucks, his love life is a joke, and his future feels like impending doom.

As Arisu struggles to exist in a world that can't be bothered with him, he feels like everything would be better if he were anywhere else.

When a strange fireworks show transports him and his friends to a parallel world, Arisu thinks all his wishes have come true. But this new world isn't an empty paradise, it's a vicious game. And the only way to survive is to play.

The first game starts with a bang, but Arisu manages to beat the clock and save his friends. However, it's a short-lived victory as they discover that winning only earns them a few days' grace period. If they want to get home, they're going to have to start playing a lot harder.

What 'Alice in Borderland' is All About

Alice in Borderland is a 2020 Japanese science fiction thriller drama streaming television series based on the manga of the same name by Haro Aso.

The series was directed by Shinsuke Sato and stars Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya as allies trapped in an abandoned Tokyo where they are forced to compete in dangerous games. The type and difficulty of the game are determined by playing cards.

They survived the first game and they received "visas", which are extended the more they compete. The catch is, if the visas expire, the individuals are executed by red lasers being shot from the sky.

The series was first announced in July 2019. Each episode was written by Sato, Yoshiki Watabe, and Yasuko Kuramitsu.

The filming of the series began in August and concluded that same year in December, with locations including various districts of Shibuya.

"Alice in Borderland" premiered on Netflix on December 10, 2020. The series received positive reviews from viewers and critics for its visuals, cinematography, editing, and use of graphic violence.

Netflix renewed the series for a second season two weeks after the first season was released. The second season is set to release in December 2022.
