What to Know for Blue Eye SamuraiSeason 2
Blue Eye Samurai series creators Amber Noizumi and Michael Green are returning for the new season with animation production from Blue Spirit, and the duo is all in support of its comparisons to anime. As Green previously told ComicBook, “We’re anime fans too, and we knew what we were doing wasn’t anime, but we were hoping the anime fans would find it and embrace it as something as a distant cousin, but familiar,” the creator stated.” So it’s been wonderful. I mean, anime fans are so passionate. They love it…like the most rabid sports fan doesn’t love their team like anime fans love anime.”
Blue Eye Samuraihas been a big success for Netflix thus far with some notable Emmy awards wins under its belt, and it’s likely that this second season will be continuing that hot streak if the earliest reactions to the season are any indication.
