Kinnikuman Perfect Origin Arc Season 2 ended today with a cliffhanger. Unfortunately, there's been no real news of a season 3 minus this image. The end card for episode 22 adds an English "To Be Continued..." implying more episodes. These end cards DO NOT appear in the Netflix version of the episode. At least not in the English release. When season 1 ended in 2024 there was an official teaser video that only displayed text but confirmed a season 2. We didn't get any of that for season 2's conclusion. Kinnikuman recently had a Kinnikuman Festival at a store in Japan where the turnout was very successful that even caused 2 hour waiting lines. The crowds included more female customers than usual. The anime has also gotten attention from Japanese Vtuber girls so POA is getting a presence. There was also a special Chinese Kinnikuman TICA event held in Feb 2025 so it's definitely being successful in the East. However in the West, Kinnikuman Perfect Origin Arc is still very niche. But I also don't see the vocally loud "aura anime fan" generation to be intrigued by this anime.
