Published 11/05/2025, 8:53 PM EST

The world rarely gifts us with art so gloriously absurd as K-pop idols exorcising demons without dislodging a single rhinestone, yet KPop Demon Hunters managed this feat with eyebrow-raising poise. It pranced onto screens with all the glitz of a comeback showcase, and devotees received it with the devotion of fans guarding rare photocards. A confection of glitter, ghouls, and sororal loyalty, it left comment sections positively swooning. The closing moments all but winked at the promise of continuation.

No wonder Netflix is hurrying a sequel, keen to parade such pandemonium anew for an even larger global audience.

Huntr/x seems poised for a second promenade across our screens, and within the glacial realm of animation, a 2029 debut borders on indecent haste. Netflix and Sony have arranged for the animated, musical resurrection of KPop Demon Hunters, according to Bloomberg. Considering that animated continuations frequently languish for the better part of a decade, a four-year pause feels almost impulsive, as if the studios feared the glitter might dull before their return.

Such urgency is uncommon in this genre, hinting that Netflix prefers to keep the franchise in the limelight rather than rely on wistful recollection years later. As per reports by Bloomberg, Netflix places KPop Demon Hunters among the rare productions aiming to reappear before audiences misplace their enthusiasm beneath newer obsessions. Schedules remain capricious creatures, ever prone to wandering, yet this plan unmistakably signals faith in the title’s international appeal and sustained fan devotion.
