The anime that was deservingly among the best anime of 2021 is coming back with a special episode. The Special is titled Treasure Chest of Courage for the Ranking of Kings anime and is set to air in April 2023.
The teaser and visual were released only recently by the Official Ranking of Kings Twitter page. Although this isn’t what the fans would have been expecting, it certainly is a step forward for the franchise. What I mean is that treasure chest of courage is not the second season but only a special series. There has not been any official statement or announcement regarding the number of episodes it will have.
The first announcement of the special was made officially a few months ago. Until the visual and teaser were released, we only knew that it had been in production and will come in 2023. Even now, we don’t have much information but we are bound to get more as the release approaches. Let me share the information that is currently available.
