Recently, it was confirmed that Frieren season 2 will only have 12 episodes, and it shocked the audience. Frieren's first season had 26 episodes, so only 12 for the second was certainly disappointing. However, this decision may be made after careful deliberation. The main reason behind the low numbers was to make sure the anime didn't get too close to the manga. Not all fans will notice, but the Frieren manga is on indefinite hiatus starting in 2025.

Frieren Manga isn't coming back anytime soon

Frieren Season 2 has only 10 episodes

According to available reports, both Kanehito Yamada and Tsukasa Abe are suffering from ill health, due to which they had to take a break from their work. With the manga on break, the anime can cut losses and get dangerously close. If that happens, it will take a long time for the third season of Freire to be released, probably in 2028. So, the studio has decided to reduce the number of episodes to maintain the distance.

When the episode count is reduced, it does not mean that the animation quality will be compromised. after all Madhouse is famous for its high quality work. The studio never wanted to ruin one of its most successful projects by going below par.
