Ever dreamt of going on a magical adventure in a fantasy world with you being the main hero with legendary status.
Well, then, look no further as the anime adaption of Subaruichi s’ manga series, The Legendary Hero Is Dead is certainly one to provide you with that experience.
The story follows an average but slightly perverted farmer named Touka, who succumbs to many daydreams wherein he is a hero with a beautiful girl by his side.
However, in real life, he is selfish and is not above acts such as stealing, lying, threats, and taking advantage of random people.
He also displays signs of cowardice, frequently running away in battle when he does not have a direct advantage and trying to escape while being forced to take responsibility for his depraved actions.
Meanwhile, the real hero is Sion Breydan, who has sealed the Hell s’ Gate as the portal is used by Demons to attack and invade the human realm.
Unfortunately, the seal wasn’t strong, which allowed the demons to attack again, and the coward Touka digs pitfalls to save himself from annihilation.
When everyone looks over to Sion to save humanity, the legendary dies after falling into one of the Touka s’ pits.
With no option left, the necromancer Anri Haysworth puts Touko’s perverted soul in the deceased body of Sion to pose as him and also is joined by his childhood friend, Yuna Yunis.
Can the newly found trio seal the Hell s’ Gate and save the world is the central plot of the show.

WHAT IS THE LEGENDARY HERO IS DEAD SEASON 2 RELEASE DATE?
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season One aired from 7th April 2023 to 23rd June 2023 for 12 episodes.
As of writing, there is no update from studio Liden Films on the renewal of The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season 2.
SEASON | RELEASE DATE |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season 1 | 7th April 2023 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season 2 | Yet to be Announced |
Production Studios consider various financial and commercial metrics before announcing a renewal.
As mentioned earlier, The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season One was an average fantasy series and consequently failed to make it to the rated anime list of Spring 2023.
Although the anime is labeled as fantasy, it features numerous ecchi tropes and degenerate moments of humor, which has its takers and is reflected in its IMDB user episode ratings.
EPISODE | RATING |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 1 | 6.7 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 2 | 7.1 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 3 | 6.8 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 4 | 7.0 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 5 | 7.0 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 6 | 6.9 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 7 | 6.4 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 8 | 6.5 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 9 | 7.5 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 10 | 7.6 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 11 | 7.5 |
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Episode 12 | 7.8 |
While the reviews and ratings are mostly in favor, a crucial factor for renewal will be the availability of studio and source material.
Unfortunately, the 2023 release schedule for studio Liden Films is stacked with as many as six new animes, which rules out the chances of a swift renewal.
But in some ways, this is also positive news as we can see studio Liden Films is capable of handling multiple projects in a year which is essential for sequels.
Furthermore, the studio should not face any problems regarding lack of source material as more than 130 chapters are available for producing The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season 2.
All in All, given the world load, it’s highly unlikely that the studio will green-lit a renewal any time soon.
At best, fans can hope for updates on The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season 2 Trailer and The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season 2 release date by Spring 2024.

THE LEGENDARY HERO IS DEAD SEASON 2 PLOT
In the finale episode of The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season One, “The Legendary Hero is a Duo!” Kyle shows up to pursue retribution on Touka. Touka stirs inside the Legend Blade and meets Sion, who shows him an entryway through which each woman he has met is bare except for stockings.
Sion uncovers it is a gift from the Sword, an eternity custom fitted to Touka’s deepest longings; however, if he decides to enter, he will not have the option to save Yuna.
Touka does not hold back in getting back to save Yuna. He gets back to Sion’s body while Sion’s spirit briefly possesses Touka’s body to battle close by him.
Diego is crushed and destroyed by devils in revenge for his killing of Adele. Yuna’s spirit gets back to her body totally restored.
As the new hero, Touka is swarmed by women, but he is jealously dragged into a nearby bedroom by Yuna.
After some hesitation and arguing, she decides to reward him for saving her by letting him worship her thighs in a bikini and stockings, only to flee when Touka reveals Sion can probably see her from inside the Sword.
Marguerite correctly deduces Yuna has fallen in love with Touka and becomes her friend and rival for his affection.
At Sion’s urging, Touka delays going to Hells Gate until he has permanently increased his mana levels. To that end, Sion orders Kyle and Dorothy to guide Touka to a mana manipulation expert, the Sage.
The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season One covered till Chapter 62 of the manga, which means The Legendary Hero Is Dead Season 2 will begin by adapting Chapter 63.
The search for the Sage begins, but not before Touka and his party have some fun in the sun!
A lead on the whereabouts of the Hero’s former companion soon brings them to The Sage’s Island, a mysterious place filled with ancient creatures and dragons! But aren’t these monsters supposed to be extinct?!
Meanwhile, Kyle’s loyalty to the party remains highly suspect, but a bigger question has surfaced. Could the Sage be working with the enemy?
