DAN DA DAN Season 2 – Release Date, Schedule, How to Watch

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors DAN DA DAN was by far the biggest anime success story of 2024, and despite not winning too many awards at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards, it is still very much a fan favorite. The sci-fi supernatural coming of age series delighted fans with its down-to-earth storytelling and gorgeous visuals with its first season, with some episodes in the series said by fans to be some of the best anime episodes of all time. Naturally, fans are very excited to see what happens next, and they won't have to wait long at all. Season 2 of DAN DA DAN is just around the corner, and promises to be just as delightful and bombastic as the first season, with the series' season 2 trailer showing off some absolutely wild scenes.

Shueisha / Crunchyroll To that end, we've put together this guide to help you with everything you need to know about the series, including how to watch DAN DA DAN season 2, as well as the DAN DA DAN season 2 release date, and the schedule for DAN DA DAN season 2. DAN DA DAN Season 2 Release Date and Time DAN DA DAN season 2 will be available to stream from July 3, 2025. The season will premiere with a single episode on that date, which some viewers may have seen before if they saw the DAN DA DAN: Evil Eye movie in the cinemas, which combined the first three episodes of the season. The exact time of release has not yet been announced, but DAN DA DAN season 1 episodes were released weekly at 11:00am ET, so it's likely that season 2 will follow a similar pattern. DAN DA DAN Season 2 – How to Watch DAN DA DAN season 2 will be available to stream on Crunchyroll, Netflix, and Hulu. All three services require a paid subscription to watch new episodes of DAN DA DAN, although Crunchyroll may make some episodes available to watch for free with ads at some point in the future. Crunchyroll is currently offering the entirety of DAN DA DAN season 1 for free with ads ahead of the release of the new season, too, so now's the time to catch up. DAN DA DAN Season 2 Release Schedule New episodes of DAN DA DAN season 2 will be released weekly on Thursdays following its premiere. Typically short season anime like DAN DA DAN won't face any delays, but anime is no stranger to week- or even two week-long breaks, so it's entirely possible DAN DA DAN will face the same fate. Hulu, Netflix, and Crunchyroll will also be offering English-dubbed episodes on the same day as their subtitled versions. How Many Episodes Will DAN DA DAN Season 2 Have? At the time of writing, it has not been announced how many episodes DAN DA DAN season 2 will have. The first season was made up of 12 episodes, so it's likely DAN DA DAN season 2 will have a similar amount of episodes, give or take a few. DAN DA DAN Season 2 Trailers A number of trailers have been released for DAN DA DAN season 2, and you can watch all of them below.

Substack is the new buzzword as TV anchors look to their next deals

"We're trying to identify opportunities for people to make money outside their networks," a top talent agent said. "We're having those conversations every day — we all see there's going to be limited upside for these people at the networks." Networks have historically barred talent from moonlighting on other platforms with their own newsletters and podcasts (with books being an exception). But five TV news insiders told BI there'd been newfound openness to letting talent establish themselves on platforms like Substack — especially as the examples pile up of TV journalists taking the solo route. Catherine Valentine, Substack's point person for news and politics, said the platform had seen a surge of interest from TV journalists after it launched a live video feed and Jim Acosta, formerly of CNN, started broadcasting from the platform earlier this year. Some legacy news organizations, like CNN and MSNBC, are experimenting with letting talent use Substack to distribute clips like they would have done on X (formerly Twitter) in the past. "They're opening the door because talent who's left had such immediate impact on Substack," Valentine said. She added that she'd even fielded some calls from legacy outlets about letting their employees establish their own paywalled Substacks. Agents, with a financial stake in steering clients' careers, are pushing to exploit the shift in tenor at TV networks. Two told BI they're paying attention to movements like those of CNN's Jake Tapper, who distributes notes and links for free on Substack. One also said they hoped networks might give more leeway to news contributors than anchors, even if the distinction is lost on the audience. An example is Steve Kornacki, who left MSNBC to become a contributor at NBC News with the title of chief data analyst, which will let him do other things outside the network as long as they are unrelated to politics and sports, a person familiar with the matter said. Agents are also carefully selecting their company targets. One said they considered Paramount's CBS News and Disney's ABC News to be more conservative when it came to letting talent freelance, while they saw NBC and MSNBC as more open. Chuck Todd, the former "Meet the Press" moderator and now independent entrepreneur, said he'd heard "informed chatter" that news orgs could copy what Disney's ESPN has done with Stephen A. Smith and Pat McAfee. Smith's deal freed him to appear on more platforms to talk politics, while McAfee's gave him creative control. "It's likely the future all over the media landscape," Todd said. The TV business is wobbly The changing winds come as the TV news business is slowly dwindling. With people cutting the cord faster than expected, media companies can't jettison their cable channels fast enough. Warner Bros. Discovery just announced plans to split its declining TV networks from its growing streaming and studios business. Comcast is also hiving off most of its cable assets, including MSNBC and CNBC. Meanwhile, the erosion of these news outlets' businesses has left them vulnerable to attacks by President Donald Trump and made it harder for them to fight back. At the same time, some TV news journalists like Acosta, Mehdi Hasan, and Megyn Kelly, untethered — whether by choice or by force — from big media companies, are starting to show there's a viable business for established voices in podcasting and on platforms like Substack and Beehiiv. As agents prepare to go into sensitive negotiations with the networks over talent side gigs, it helps to have examples out there like Acosta, one of Substack's top politics names, as well as less lucrative ones. Agents said they're also monitoring salaries. Outlets like Puck and The Ankler have reported on various flat or declining star salaries. Despite this economic reality, agents told BI they felt the bottom hadn't yet completely fallen out of the market — think, salaries getting cut in half. Why not? Why won't TV news companies just let all their employees have Substacks? The traditional TV company view is that they pay talent well for exclusivity and can face editorial, legal, and reputational risks if someone reports or comments on another platform outside the network's editorial or legal review. Some channels, like MSNBC, also stress that they work to create various opportunities for talent in-house. SVP Madeleine Haeringer said MSNBC is focused on expanding its hosts' reach through audio, digital, and social media, using all storytelling tools to build audiences beyond cable. The channel has original shows on YouTube hosted by Ari Melber and Lisa Rubin, for example. Substack and others are beckoning Podcast and newsletter companies are waiting in the wings for TV news expats. Valentine of Substack is at the ready with stats: Substack now has 5 million paid subscribers, driven by news and politics; 30 people in news and politics gross $1 million or more. "This is an area we're happily investing in because this is the future," she said. "If you have spent your career on cable news, there is a clear path for you." Ray Chao, who leads Vox Media's podcast business — home to tech journalist Kara Swisher and others — said there's a "groundswell" of interest from current and former TV news employees. His pitch is that with Vox, they can build a show that reflects their vision and forge a direct-to-consumer relationship on a medium whose audience is growing. "You can own a lot of the financial upside," he said. "It can be very lucrative." The solopreneur route can be a mixed bag, however. Todd has a podcast and YouTube channel where he interviews newsmakers and gives his takes on the day's biggest stories. He said as an entrepreneur, it's hard to have downtime and not feel like he's missing an opportunity. But he enjoys the diversity of projects he works on and having full editorial control. John Harwood, a former CNN White House correspondent who's done a podcast and writes for Zeteo, Hasan's new venture, said there are perils in what he called the Substack "hamster wheel." "People who look at that as a source of income are going to feel a very large amount of pressure to maximize the number of subscribers and deliver content at a pace that satisfies people who are paying to get it," he said.
