It’s been almost three decades since a forever etching sports anime shined in the hearts of anime fans and even now, we haven’t seen any signs of sequel yet.
So, the question is, will there be Slam Dunk season 2? Or is Slam Dunk season 2 release date confirmed already? In this article, we’ll unveil all the details for you.
Slam Dunk Season 2 Release Date!
As of now, there has been no official announcement from the creator regarding Slam Dunk season 2. However, don’t be disappointed just based on these assumptions because we might have a chance of getting another season.
So, let’s determine whether Slam Dunk gets another season. How do we do it? Well, it’s pretty simple because we’ve done it for numerous anime series like Classroom of the Elite and The Devil is a Part Timer.
Will There be Slam Dunk Season 2?
To determine whether an anime gets another season, we need to consider three main factors: It’s Popularity, Past Performance, and Source Material.
Popularity: We don’t really need to talk about Slam Dunk’s popularity as it is one of the best sports anime of all time and even after three decades, people still re-watch it.
Past Performance: The 1990s were golden days for DVDs, and although we’re not sure on the numbers, Slam Dunk performed incredibly with overall sales.
Source Material: Source Material refers to the source from where anime adapts the story. Like manga, light novels, and games. In this anime’s case, it is manga. Slam Dunk has a total of 21 volumes, but anime didn’t adapt it completely. So, there is still enough material left for the anime to continue the storyline.
Possibilities of Getting Slam Dunk Season 2:
Although it is disappointing to hear it, we may never get another season of Slam Dunk. The manga is over, and the anime diverged its story from the regionals around the Volume 21. So, there is no point in continuing of another season.
The manga is already brilliant on its own, so most people go straightly for the manga. So, the most we can hope for is a remake/reboot for the anime. Well, there is a possibility considering how excellent the manga is and how popular the anime is.
Slam Dunk Manga Continuation After Anime!
As we mentioned above, the anime diverged after the Volume 21. So, you can either the manga from the Volume 21 or from the beginning (which is the best thing you can do).

Final Thoughts!
In conclusion, we won’t be getting another season of Slam Dunk ever. The best we can hope for is a remake, and it could actually happen considering how popular the series is.
So, what are your thoughts on this? Do you think it deserves a remake? Or a second season would be enough? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.
