AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Studio Trigger revealed at Anime Expo that Delicious in Dungeon season 2 will premiere in October 2027, alongside a brand new project from Kill la Kill creators Hiroyuki Imaishi and Kazuki Nakashima.
Studio Trigger is keeping a massive schedule for the next couple of years. During a recent panel at Anime Expo, the celebrated animation house shared major updates that extend well beyond the much anticipated release of Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 this coming fall. Fans of the studio's unique blend of high energy action and character driven storytelling have plenty to look forward to across both streaming queues and community watch parties.
Chief among the announcements is a second season of Delicious in Dungeon, which is officially scheduled to premiere in October 2027. The first season became a massive hit on Netflix in 2024, resonating deeply with tabletop RPG fans and general audiences alike through its cozy, monster cooking aesthetic. Trigger confirmed that the upcoming season will bring back the original cast, giving viewers more of the comforting fantasy vibes that made the initial run a social media favorite.
Beyond established hits, the creative minds behind Kill la Kill and Promare are reuniting for a brand new endeavor. Director Hiroyuki Imaishi and writer Kazuki Nakashima are teaming up once again, with Nakashima confirming that the script is already finished while Imaishi tackles storyboards. While the project does not yet have a release window, the creators are framing it as a major milestone that pulls from the collective weight of their past work. As reported by Polygon, these upcoming projects solidify Trigger's status as a powerhouse in modern animation and streaming culture.
