While the reviews, ratings, and profits are in favor, a crucial factor for renewal will be the availability of studio and source material.
Currently, studio Madhouse has three (The Gene of Ai, Frieren, Chi: On the Movements of the Earth) new projects listed for 2023 and beyond.
However, the concerning point with studio Madhouse is that they are well known not to produce sequels which could spell bad news for the prospect of My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 Season 2.
On a positive front, there are more than three volumes available to produce a sequel.
Also, judging by the ending of the first season, fans would love to see what happens after Yamada and Akane finally become a couple.
All in All, it’s up to studio Madhouse who would need to break their “One Season Witch” curse and announce a renewal for My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 Season 2.
Assuming they do that, in that case, we can expect updates on My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 Season 2 trailer and My Love Story with Yamada-kun at Lv999 Season 2 release date by Spring 2024.
