We’ve already known that no amount of threatening letters will prevent Kuroko’s Basketball (Kuroko no Basuke) from getting a second season, but until now fans of this series didn’t know when a second season would be airing. However today as found by Manga News Japon, the latest issue of Weekly Shonne Jump has announced that the second anime season of Kuroko’s Basketball will be airing in October, placing it firmly in the Fall 2013 anime season.
The first season of Kuroko’s Basketball began airing in 2012 and ended with 25 episodes, but it was not licensed for release in the West by any publishing companies. Though it is worth noting that Crunchyroll is still streaming the first season with English subtitles.
