7.8

The dystopian thriller Alice in Borderland returns for a third season. Netflix announced the return during the APOS conference in Indonesia and confirmed that Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya will return in the roles of Arisu and Usaki. In addition to a return of the well-known actors, Netflix also confirmed that Shinsuke Sato will return to direct season 3.

That's nice news. I hope they can keep the same level.

Thought the second season was a bit less than the first, but still a high level series. I found some episodes a bit long-winded in the second season, but a nice ending.

I just started this. And I can see where Squid Games got its idea from (although the movie Battle Royal was undoubtedly an inspiration as well). And honestly, I like this Japanese series a lot better. I'm two episodes into it now and haven't had a single "fast forward" moment like I had with Squid Games. I'll take a closer look, but I think it's promising.

What an adventure. Arisu, Usagi and friends had to fight hard to reach the end. The story of the manga has been told, but I'm hoping for a season 3! After all, we still don't know who's in charge. The ending can also be a nice set-up for a new season, especially with the joker card in the closing seconds of the last episode.

Fantastic second (and final?) season. The games are brilliant again and the world seems even rawer and dirtier than in season 1. Really much better than Squid Games, which has a similar premise. The story ends nicely, although I thought the last games (except the very last one) were a bit rushed. But despite that, a satisfying ending. Whether there will be a third season remains to be seen. A small opening was left at the very end. But I understand that the manga (Japanese comic) on which the series is based has now been completely told.

Hopeful news. There are 2 spin-off manga stories that could possibly lead to a third season. https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2022/12/23/alice-in-borderland-has-two-spin-off-manga-stories-that-could-lead-to-s3/

That would be nice! Let's wait and see if this is picked up by Netflix. AiB was a big success for them, so who knows.

Nothing is known yet about a second season, when it will/has gone into production or when the start date is.

Netflix NL announced on Twitter yesterday that season two was on Netflix. Tweet has now been removed. I think an intern was a little too enthusiastic
