Will there be a season 2 of Super Crooks - renewed or canceled status - Netflix anime series

This article discusses whether there will be a season 2 of the Netflix anime series Super Crooks and its renewed or canceled status. It does not contain spoilers.

When Super Crooks was announced at Netflix’s Tudum event, excitement brewed. Not only did this represent a new anime series, but it is one linked to a similar universe that Jupiter’s Legacy derives in, and it flagrantly has that superhero alternative feel. Confession: I liked Jupiter’s Legacy. I think it was unfairly dismissed by critics, and Netflix hit that canceled button way too early. But back to the topic at hand, Super Crooks had all the jam about it to have a similar impact as Invincible.

Super Crooks follows Johnny Bolt, who finds himself at a Super Max prison after accidentally killing loads of his peers at school using his electric powers. Later in life, he bands together with a group of criminals with superpowers. Unable to leave the crime life, Johnny decides to implement a grand heist with his crew. The story is flavorsome, and audacious, with plenty of potential.

As of right now, there is no confirmation that there will be a second season of Super Crooks, however, we can offer insight on intentions, and speculate whether a second installment is possible.

First of all, Super Crooks season 1 acts more of a prequel to the story, so there are plans to further overlap the anime series with the adaptation of the comics. There’s clearly a long-term plan with the story. Netflix will also be hoping that this anime series lifts off the ground and one that can compete with the likes of animated series Invincible.

At Ready Steady Cut, we gave Super Crooks a less than a favorable review because we felt the story failed to land with an impact, however, Netflix anime series have a habit of being renewed and extended for a few seasons, so there’s a strong likelihood that this universe continues.

With anime viewers rife on the streaming service, we predict Super Crooks will return for a second offering. Especially with the potential it serves.
