One cannot deny the popularity of stories. They have the power to engage the audience. These fictitious characters allow individuals to escape from the real world. We are talking about the famous anime Devil’s Line, a manga-based television drama. They set this anime in a mythical world, and in this scenario, the vampires are evil or devils.
In Devil’s Line, you meet Tsukasa Taira, a vibrant student. One day she was heading out, and an evil vampire attacked her. She was trying to save her life, then came a hero who saved her from the vampire attack. That hero is Yuuki Anzai, who is a brave detective. Anzai himself is a half-vampire. Since vampires are considered devils, he keeps his identity hidden.
There is a Manga and this anime has taken inspiration from it. The manga was a tremendous success, and it released its last edition in 2018. It came out in 2013 and ran for five years. Ryo Hanada is a Manga writer.
Updates On The Second Season
Fans are awaiting the announcement of its release. We get to see the first season in 2018. After the release, there was some news that the second season will be released, since then there is utter silence. The series’ twelve episodes depicted the love story of a human and vampire. It was released in Japan, and also on Hulu. The first season is also available on Netflix. Since then, there has been no word about his release or a release date. Fans are eager to learn more about Anzai and Tsukasa’s love story.
But, the studio has also not canceled it, so that is some hope for the fans.
However, it seems likely that there will be a second season. The Manga was a tremendous hit, but Devil’s lines could not match that popularity. That is why the production house has given no news. The primary purpose of any production unit is to get profits, and since they could not do that with Devils line season one, so there is an apprehension about season two.
The Plotline
The story will pick up where the first season leaves off. In the end, we saw that even though Anzai loves Tsukasa, he cannot be with her. Our protagonist, Anzai, attempts to conceal his identity. Since he is a vampire, he has urges to drink human blood. So he can’t be near Anzai because he might hurt her, yet he still loves her; that is the struggle he is facing. Also, being a detective he is around a lot of dead bodies, and the anime depicts beautifully his struggles.
So, to ensure her safety of Tsukasa, he parted ways with her. But it’s a challenge for both of them.
Now, since there is no second season yet, the story is also not known. But there is the Manga, which already has told the entire story. So, giving no spoilers, let us look at the potential plot of the second season. The hero, Anzai, is not in the police force anymore, and now he has to face some skeletons from his past. He encounters the vampire that attacked Tsukasa. Since Anzai is a half-vampire, he has to find out his true lineage, and how he became what he is. Also, season two will have the greatest revelation that it is not blood that attracts Anzai. Then what is it? Well, that is the question! Despite all that is going on in his life, he will never forget Tsukasa.
The Cast
We can only guess who will be in the cast, but many of them will return. The second has yet to be announced. We can only guess who will be in the cast. However, if a second season is developed, most of the original cast members are likely to return to reprise their roles. However, as the story progresses in the Manga, other characters are introduced. As a result, we may expect the addition of new members. This will add a twist to the story.
