It’s been over three years since Highschool of the Dead Season 1 first came out and since then fans around the world have been waiting for the announcement of Highschool of the Dead Season 2. We were hopeful it would finally arrive this year, or next, as news of the manga’s continuation suddenly emerged earlier this year. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be the case and we’re left wondering if season 2 will ever come out. Why hasn’t it come out yet? Who knows. Maybe we’re not showing enough support for the series. If that’s the case, I hope Daisuke Satō and his team realize how badly we want season 2, and in order to spread our love and support for the series, HSoftheDead.com, in association with HOTD Philipines (100k fans strong), is sponsoring a HOTD Season 2 Contest!

This contest has ended. Thank you all for the support and congrats to the winner!

Contest Summary

But how does a contest solve anything? The goal of this contest is to get fans motivated again about the Highschool of the Dead series and show the world, and Daisuke Satō, that we really want season 2 to come out soon! How are we going to this? We’re going to make Youtube videos explaining and showing everyone how much we love HOTD! Instead of just constantly hoping that one day season 2 will come out on its own, I think it’s time for everyone to start doing something that will hopefully get the writer to realize the Highschool of the Dead anime needs to continue now, before all hope is lost. If that’s not enough to motivate you, there will be prizes for the best HOTD videos!
