“Before I knew it, a much longer time had passed since we announced the production of Season 2,” Abiru shared. “We are still moving forward day by day with the anime production, so we appreciate your patience for a bit longer.”

For those of you caught up with Vinland Saga, you will know the anime got its debut back in 2019. The hit anime went live under WIT Studio, and a second season was announced not that long ago. Right now, fans are hopeful the epic will return to television in 2023, but that release window is still up in the air given what Abiru has shared with his followers.

Want to know more about Vinland Saga? You can check out the anime’s official synopsis below:

“As a child, Thorfinn sat at the feet of the great Leif Ericson and thrilled to wild tales of a land far to the west. But his youthful fantasies were shattered by a mercenary raid. Raised by the Vikings who murdered his family, Thorfinn became a terrifying warrior, forever seeking to kill the band’s leader, Askeladd, and avenge his father. Sustaining Thorfinn through his ordeal are his pride in his family and his dreams of a fertile westward land, a land without war or slavery…the land Leif called Vinland.”
