What was the ‘Death Parade Season 1’ all about?
Death Parade or Desu Paredo was produced by Yuzuru Tachikawa. The series takes inspiration from the short movie Death Billiards produced by the same producer. This super engaging anime started in January 2015 and went on air till March 2015, consisting of twelve episodes in total.
After successful series such as Death Note, Hunter x Hunter, One Punch Man and other similar hits, it was very obvious that Madhouse’s new show Death Parade will touch the same success or even higher. Death Parade Season 1 grabbed huge success and popularity.
Due to the success of season 1 and the unmatchable interest of the audience made madhouse announced the release of the second season in 2016. Season 2 did see the development phase, but then it was stopped. No one knows the exact reason why the show has not made it to the television screens yet. There have been many predictions being made for such a delay.
One theory for the delay of the release can be believed that the production house might have gone out of ideas for the storyline of the second season. Yes, this can be possible because Death House Season 1 was entirely based on a short movie by Tachikawa, unlike many other super hits from the madhouse, which were mostly based on comic books or manga.
If the makers want to get the same popularity as season 1, they will have to come up with a complete story that can be continued from the ending scene of the first season.
What Could Be the Storyline of ‘Death Parade Season 2’?
To understand what could possibly happen in season 2, it is necessary to recall the storyline of season 1. It starts off by introducing the complex world of the afterlife, where one who dies goes to one of the mysterious bars after death. There are many Arbiters working as bartenders in the bars.
These bartenders are actually assigned to make people participate in one of the death games. The one who wins is reincarnated, while the ones who lose are thrown into voids.
The lead characters of the story are Arbiter of Quindecim, a bartender, and a Decim. One fine day Decim finds a beautiful black-haired lady called “Chiyuki” and starts liking her as any living human would do. As the story progresses, Decim decides to reincarnate Chiyuki. Then the whole story revolves around their struggles and ends with Chiyuki living her new life, while Decim stays back in the bar and continues welcoming newly departed souls.
Though the story of the second season is not finalized yet, chances are the makers will try to build Decim’s character stronger by exploring his previous life. It will be very exciting to witness his previous life and know he will face Chiyuki as an arbiter.
One other possible story of season 2 can be Chiyuki comes again to the afterlife after her second death and she meets Decim. How will their new love story progress? Will it be a great thing to watch?

Also, it is important to know that, if they are willing to make the season, would they continue from the ending of season one, or will it be a totally new story?
