reborn as a vending machine

The first season of the Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon anime has come to a close, and with it comes news of a second! Reborn as a Vending Machine season 2 is officially in the works, and while we don’t have much new info, the celebratory visual above comes from chief animation director Naoki Yamauchi. 

The Reborn as a Vending Machine anime is directed by Noriaki Akitaya (Bakuman.), with Tatsuya Takahashi (The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls) overseeing scripts and Takahiro Sakai (Ms. vampire who lives in my neighborhood) taking Yuki Hagure’s original character designs and adapting them for the Slowcurve Co., Ltd. production. 

Crunchyroll is currently streaming the series as it airs.

The original Reborn as a Vending Machine light novels are available in English from Yen Press, who describes the story like so:

A middle-aged man with only one passion in his life meets a fitting end in a traffic accident. That’s where most stories would end, but instead, this is when his story begins when he’s reborn as what he admired the most in life–a vending machine! But his new lease on life(?) happens in the worst place possible–what can a vending machine do in a monster-infested dungeon when he can’t speak or even move on his own?
