I’m still savoring Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill. Mukouda’s cozy meals, Fel’s gluttonous roars, and Sui’s adorable wiggles—it’s my otaku comfort food. I binged Season 1’s 12 episodes on Crunchyroll, heart warmed by every sizzling dish and isekai adventure. The finale in March 2023 left me hungry for more, with Mukouda’s Online Supermarket skill teasing new culinary quests. I’ve scoured X, official sites, and anime news outlets for Season 2 updates. It’s confirmed for October 2025, but the wait’s testing my patience. Let’s dig into the hype, rant about the delay, and dream of Mukouda’s next feast. This is for the fans still grilling for more!
Where Season 1 Left Us: A Tasty Cliffhanger
Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill (Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hōrō Meshi) is isekai at its coziest. Since January 2023, Studio MAPPA has adapted Ren Eguchi’s light novels, following Tsuyoshi Mukouda, a 27-year-old salaryman whisked to the Kingdom of Reijseger. His “useless” Online Supermarket skill lets him buy modern Japanese ingredients, cooking dishes that win over legendary beasts like Fel, a Fenrir, and Sui, a super slime, per Anime News Network. Season 1 (January–March 2023) covered Light Novel Volumes 1–3, ending with Mukouda gaining Dora-chan, a pixie dragon, as his third familiar, per Oshi no Ko Wiki.
I rewatched the finale on Crunchyroll—Mukouda’s sukiyaki, Fel’s greed, Sui’s “Uncle Fel” chirps—and I’m starving. The light novels, with 15 volumes as of February 2024, and manga (10 volumes) offer plenty for Season 2, likely Volumes 4–6, per GameRant. So why’s MAPPA making us wait?
The Sizzling News: Season 2 Hits October 2025
Here’s the main course: Campfire Cooking Season 2 premieres in October 2025! Announced October 29, 2023, via @tonsuki_anime on X, the release window was confirmed at Overlap Bunko’s 10th Anniversary Fest on December 15, 2024, with a teaser trailer and visual on May 3, 2025, per Anime News Network. MAPPA returns, with Kiyoshi Matsuda directing, Michiko Yokote on scripts, and music by Masato Koda, Kana Utatane, and Kuricorder Quartet, per Sportskeeda. New character Dora-chan, a spunky pixie dragon, joins, voiced by Ayumu Murase (Ranking of Kings), per IMDb. Returning VAs include Yuma Uchida (Mukouda), Satoshi Hino (Fel), Hina Kino (Sui), and Maaya Uchida (Ninrir), per Pinkvilla.
ComicBook.com notes Tsuyoshi Kuwahara joins Nao Ōtsu for character designs, with Shiho Tanaka and Eriko Itō as chief animation directors. No episode count yet, but 12–13 episodes are likely, matching Season 1, per Anime Corner. Crunchyroll will stream it, per Anime News Network. X is buzzing—@animetv_jp (May 3, 2025) hyped the trailer, and @AniNewsAndFacts (December 15, 2024) cheered the 2025 window. I’m thrilled but antsy—October’s too far!
Why So Long? A Fan’s Simmering Rant
I’m steaming, okay? Campfire Cooking is a wholesome hit—7 million light novel copies, a top isekai manga per Wikipedia. Why wait nearly three years? My gripes:
- MAPPA’s Packed Plate: ScreenRant says MAPPA’s juggling Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3, Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc, and Lazarus in 2025. Campfire Cooking’s chill vibe gets sidelined for flashier projects. Cook faster!- Staff Shuffles: New animation directors and Kuwahara’s addition, per Anime News Network, suggest retooling for quality. But why not announce sooner? Fans are famished!- Light Novel Gap: Volumes 4–6 were out by 2018, per J-Novel Club. MAPPA didn’t need to wait for source material, unlike Black Clover. What’s the holdup?
I rewatched Season 1’s barbecue episode—those sizzling steaks, Sui’s dessert obsession—and it’s pure joy. With a new teaser showing Dora-chan, per IMDb, and Reddit’s r/Animedubs hyping a kid fan’s love for Fel plushies, the hunger’s real. MAPPA, serve it up!
Hype and Rumors: The Internet’s Cooking
The web’s a hot grill. Anime Corner (December 15, 2024) shared Yuma Uchida and Satoshi Hino’s event photo with a Sui plushie, sparking joy. Sportskeeda (December 16, 2024) speculates Season 2 dives into Volume 4, with Mukouda exploring new towns and cooking for gods. @AniRave on X (March 11, 2025) praised MAPPA’s commitment, while r/Animedubs fans crave more world-building and a demon king arc. Pinkvilla teases comedic monster encounters and divine blessings for Mukouda’s dishes.
Anime News Network (May 3, 2025) notes the teaser’s TV Tokyo premiere, with Muse Asia likely streaming in Asia. ComicBook.com calls it MAPPA’s “sleeper hit,” with fans on X like @Crunchyroll (October 29, 2023) begging for more. No word on English dub yet, but Aaron Campbell (Mukouda) and Jonah Scott (Fel) are expected back, per IMDb. I’m glued to @tonsuki_anime, craving a full trailer.
What Could Season 2 Be? A Flavorful Feast
No exact episode count, so let’s dream. Season 2 likely adapts Volumes 4–6, per GameRant, with Mukouda, Fel, Sui, and Dora-chan exploring new regions, cooking for deities, and facing monsters, per Pinkvilla. Expect more Online Supermarket hacks—think Japanese curry or ramen—buffing allies, per J-Novel Club. Dora-chan’s speed and magic, voiced by Murase, add spice, per Anime News Network. Fans on r/Animedubs want Mukouda to grow bolder, maybe wielding a knife beyond the kitchen.
I’m betting on 12 episodes, airing October–December 2025, with MAPPA’s crisp visuals—Season 1’s food porn was mouthwatering. Uchida’s nervous Mukouda, Hino’s smug Fel, and Kino’s bubbly Sui must shine. A Genki Kawamura OP, like Season 1’s “Zeitaku na Saji,” is a must. Stream on Crunchyroll, per Anime Corner.
How We Keep the Campfire Lit
I’m not starving quietly, and neither should you. Here’s how we push for Season 2:
- Stream Season 1 on Crunchyroll, Amazon Prime Video, or Muse Asia. Binge, rate—views stoke MAPPA’s fire.
- Read the light novels or manga on J-Novel Club. Volume 15’s out—sales matter.
- Flood X. Tag @tonsukianime, @Crunchyroll, @MAPPAInfo. Fan hype got Re:Zero rolling—we’re next!
- Grab the Season 1 Blu-ray on Amazon or try Mukouda’s recipes IRL, per r/Animedubs.r/Animedubs.
Still Hungry for Mukouda’s Meals
I’m aching, writing this with Sui’s slime hugs in my mind. Campfire Cooking served 12 episodes of cozy chaos—Mukouda’s feasts, Fel’s arrogance, Dora-chan’s debut. Season 2’s locked for October 2025, but the wait’s a slow roast. The novels are stacked, fans are ravenous, and MAPPA’s got the sauce. I’m dreaming of new dishes and dragon antics. This isn’t over.
What’s your vibe? Hyped like me or simmering at MAPPA? Hit X, tag @tonsuki_anime, and let’s make noise. Stream on Crunchyroll. Read on J-Novel Club. Let’s show MAPPA we’re Mukouda’s fam. Campfire Cooking Season 2—come on, sizzle already!
