There is something about rakugo anime Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu: Sukeroku Futatabi Hen that can leave you absolutely breathless. Be it the beauty of the animation, or how blurred the line between stories and reality can be. In the last episode, Yakumo told his disciple ‘I don’t want to die. Save me’. How will he use the life that has been saved by the same Yotaro who will do all that he can to save the future of rakugo? For once, Yakumo is smiling in the advanced screenshots. We wonder what this can mean.
Thanks to the fire that occurred after his performance up on the podium, Yakumo is suffering from serious burns. Although his life has not been taken, it is proving difficult for him to recover.
That was not the only misfortune. The only rakugo theater in Tokyo has been burnt to the ground. There is a dark cloud looming over the future of rakugo, but as long as there are people, there can be rakugo. Yotaro believe in the future and is doing his best to save rakugo. It also seems like there will be a big change with Konatsu…

The first season of the new year is just one month away from its finale. It was a great start with many amazing titles that made these past months worth the extra hours we put in front of our sets. Now, it is time for the cold wind to give way to the pink hues of the sakura tree and for the Winter 2018 season to give the anime baton to Spring 2018.
