Description: Zom 100 received a new product announcement in June 2026. The official news, the delayed 2023 finale and an October fan discussion explain why that is not yet a Season 2 announcement.
As of October 28, 2026, the official Zom 100 anime pages reviewed do not announce Season 2. Their June 29 update concerns a Japanese pachinko machine, e Zom 100, scheduled for introduction to parlors on August 17. A licensed product is not a commission for new television episodes.
What was announced in June?
The official news describes combining the show's world with pachinko-specific effects. It gives a planned installation date but no Season 2 episode count, production staff, trailer or broadcast date. Licensing activity shows that the property is still being used commercially. Financing and scheduling another animated season would require separate decisions. The Japanese machine's rollout date is not a worldwide streaming date.
Why are fans still concerned?
The first anime run contains 12 episodes. Episodes 10–12 were delayed and finally aired together on December 25, 2023. The official site lists BUG FILMS as the animation studio. Viewers did receive the season finale, but the disrupted schedule helps explain why they want more than vague hints now.
On October 12, 2026, a post in the Zom 100 subreddit asked how fans could persuade BUG FILMS to make Season 2. Replies ranged from joking about buying Blu-rays to continuing to watch and discuss the series. One commenter also wanted more Witch Hat Atelier. These are verifiable individual reactions, not a survey of the whole fandom. The studio's other projects do not, by themselves, prove why a Zom 100 sequel has not been announced.
Where can Akira's story continue?
The zombie outbreak frees Akira from a punishing job and gives him a reason to pursue his bucket list. His journey with Shizuka, Kencho and Beatrix extends beyond the hometown arc covered by Episode 12. The source manga is written by Haro Aso and illustrated by Kotaro Takata. Readers can check a publisher's current catalogue for available volumes in their region.
For the anime, the meaningful next signal would be a direct production announcement, followed by staff details, a trailer and a dated broadcast or streaming plan. A pachinko product answers a licensing question, not a new-episodes question.
Bottom line: Zom 100 had genuine commercial news in 2026, but no Season 2 confirmation in the official material checked. Akira writes down what he wants to do before becoming a zombie. Fans have one more item on their list: watch Season 2, when it finally has a date.
