“Finally!” – Free! Second Season Announced

Fujoshi around the world are rejoicing at the news that KyoAni’s beloved manly swimming anime Free! is now confirmed as returning for a second season (not that this was in any real doubt), though the announcement seems likely to provoke mixed feelings amongst the studio’s traditional fanbase.
Dates for the new series are not yet released, but the last season ended with the unsubtle warning “see you next summer.”
Some of the latest disc sales figures seem to show Free! as actually being Kyoto Animation’s 4th best selling anime of all time, narrowly beating Clannad and Lucky Star – although if sales were all that motivated KyoAni presumably their output would have degenerated into a stream of K-ON! and Haruhi spin-offs and successors:
(2009) 43,883 K-ON!
(2006) 42,525 Haruhi
(2010) 39,385 K-ON!!
(2013) 30,601 Free!
(2007) 29,146 Lucky Star
(2005) 24,436 AIR
(2007) 24,808 CLANNAD
(2008) 19,884 CLANNAD AFTER STORY
(2009) 19,602 Haruhi New
(2006) 18,170 Kanon
With a second season even K-ON! may be in danger of losing its primacy at the studio.

What the fuck is this piece of shit anime for fuckjoshit doing in this site?
It's time we came clean. It's all about you.
Thousands of people all over the world have been engaged in a secret conspiracy, working tirelessly through the long weeks and months, for the sole purpose of pissing you off.
This site was created to lure you in, and make you think the contents would solely be related to things you like. Then, the Japanese arm of the conspiracy lept into action, to create an anime that was sure to annoy you. And now, here at the end, the site that lured you in posted about the anime created to stir your hatred, and it made you pissed.
Thousands of people are cheering now, their hard work and perseverance having paid off so handsomely, as you, our target, are indeed pissed off. We can all now go to our graves knowing we have not lived in vain.
You have to admit, it was one hell of a ride.
All I can say to you is "Welcome to the NHK!"
We knew he would figure it out one day, I just wish it didn't have to be so soon. Well, time to prep for our next project everyone. Great work!
Right, we call these Thousands of people feminists, happy to end up with anyone who does not support the cause no matter where.
Who says women do not exist on the Internet must be rolling in his grave every time receives a visit of these people ..
YOU ARE ALL GAYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS,AND PEDOPHILES..... ....THATS ONLY WHAT YOU(SANKAKU FANBOYS) HAVE PROVEN!!!!!

you must be new here!
nope still no interest in free, well at least we got Chunibyo S2
"We" got Chuunibyou?
Chuu2 is as much for females as it is for males.
And second season is lackluster.
You are retarded.
I agree with Noodlestein.
I think Chuunibyou season 2, while still yet have to prove itself, do have some genuinely good moment. So far, it is one of the season 2 anime that disappoint me to the point I am scream: "Why? Why?!"
Sorry, I still cannot get over the disappointment of Baka to Test, Koreha Zombie Desuka, and Haruhi season 2..
>haruhi season 2 bad
stay pleb
But its still better than this GAY-FEST
I think he used "we" representing everyone that watch it.
Finally? It just aired half a year ago..
#"secretconspiracy"
LOL
Free beat Clannad! YEEESSS!! people have taste instead of going for moe shit like Nagisa
Clannad belongs to an underworldly realm. It's in a star of its own. I like Free but to compare it to Clannad is not a contest to me.
Agred; Free's a fun watch but it doesn't hold a candle to Clannad. Clannad's still my favourite KyoAni personally.
Seconded!
Free! is hardly any better than let's say Tamako Market, just more popular because of the desperate fujoshi, which does not necessarily make it good. Many people like Naruto too, it's still a piece of shit.
HEYYYYYYYYYY NOW EVERYONE, WHATS THE ARGUMENT ALL ABOUT!!!.
ISNT IT CLEAR ALREADY, 'FREE' GIVES GAYS 'FREE'DOM.
fUCKING GAY FANBOYS, burn in hell (kyoAni too)
i hope Japan bans FREE from being released.

Are you sure you watched Clannad? Sure there was some cute moments but that anime was basically life in anime form.

now anontard tries to be religious!
again!
technically this was already confirmed last year.
we need a second season of Lucky star. Seriously.
NO WE DO NOT PERIOD
No Aya no Lucky Star man.
Yes, we do. It wouldn't be that hard to recast Konata.
We need a second season of Magical Pokaan.
YES........ POKAN ..... KAN.
"With a second season even K-ON! may be in danger of losing its primacy at the studio."
Doubtful. Later this year they're releasing a new Limited edition BluRay box set of the first season of K-On! -- with English subtitles, and different associated merchandise than the first release.
Hence with another opportunity to drive up disc sales figures, K-On! is likely to regain a very firm lead over the upstart Free!
I just don't get it, and I think that's a good thing...
Fuyukai desu
Not a fan of Kyoto Ani personally. Was hoping for something new but this was to be expected.
Seriously...this anime is freakin gay moe dudes? Seriously sorry but I will never watch this crap excuse for a show
nothing manly about it.
your gay for not giving it a chance
your MORE-GAY for giving it a chance
There's nothing "gay" about them. Unless you want to count applying tropes normally seen in moe anime for a predominantly male demographic to a bunch of boys as "gay".
It's actually the ALL the fujoshis' fault this show is hated so much,
because they go on blabing about the non existent gay relationships, thus poisoning the mind of normal people who otherwise wouldn't even see such retarded bullshit between the guys.
yeah but its still gay!!
