The summer 2018 season series Jashin-chan Dropkick, aka Dropkick on My Devil, is getting itself a second season it seems as an event this weekend has revealed that. The show went the box set route for its release on DVD and Blu-ray with them clocking in at about $200 per set, which between the two sets moved around 2,000 units, which justified bringing out more of the property. This was talked about as the series sales got underway that if they sold that many sets, which were done as DVD-R and BD-R sets, they’d produce a second season.
The series was directed by Hikaru Sato based on the series composition by Kazuyuki Fudeyasu, who worked on the scripts with Momoko Murakami. Makoto Koga worked on the character designs with studio Nomad handling the production.
The Japanese cast includes Aina Suzuki as Jashin-chan, Nichika Omori as Yurine Hanazono, Miyu Kubota as Medusa, Yurie Kozakai as Pekora, Chiaki Omigawa as Minos, Rico Sasaki as Poporon, Riho Iida as Persephone the Second, Natsuko Hara as Mei Tachibana, Kazusa Aranami as Yusa, Miko Terada as Kōji, MAO as Bete.
The property comes from manga creator Yukiwo that began in spring 2012 through the online Comic Meteor site and in print in the spring of 2014 with over nine volumes so far.
