The BOFURI: I Don’t Want to Hurt, so Ill Max Out My Defense Season 2 anime will be full of wild creatures such as Maple (Kaede Honjo) and Sally (Risa Shiramine) taking on huge-scale monsters, game bugs and new friendships.
The release date for the season 2 of BOFURI was apparently delayed. On January 9, 2021 the first anniversary of the anime broadcast was celebrated with announcing that the anime series will be coming out in 2022.
Official sources did not provide explanations for why the premiere was delayed to 2023.
The announcement for BOFURI Season 2 from 2022 was followed by a new video. Here’s the pic.
On September 20, 2022, it was confirmed that Silver Link and the animation studio will return to produce the production of the second season of BOFURI. The company is best known for anime like The Misfit of Demon King Academy, Masamune-kun no Revenge, Strike The Blood and Strike Witches.
In 2021, SilverLink released The Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World, The Next Life: All routes lead to destruction! The Worlds Finest Assassin, Aristocrat, and The Great Jahy will not be Defeated!
Some of Silver Links projects were renewed in 2023. The date for the Season 2 movie “Out of My Hand” is 2023. The earliest installment of the book The “My Next Life As a Villay” is in the summer of 2023 (the second installment of the movie The Lost / The Lost / This is not yet announced). The release date for our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World Season 2 is 2023, too. The release date from the 2019 season 2 in Masamune-kun is now also in 2023.
The first season was helmed by Shin Oonuma and Mirai Minato. Mr. Oonuma is returning for the second season.
Kazuya Hirata, a character designer and director, has returned, while Koin has good reputation for his original character design. Hotota Hiroyuki is named as director of animation, too.
The renowned author Fumihiko Shimo (which is most widely known as Clannad anime) has given back the series composition. Taro Masuda is going to start a music workshop at MAGES.
The OP Kyukyoku Unbalance, performed by Afilia Saga and the ED Play The World, performed by Riko Sasaki.
New episodes are available on Crunchyroll and Hulu. The BOFURI English dub was streaming on FUNimation, but the episodes have been shifting to Sony since the acquisition. Therefore, it’s likely that the BOFURI Season 2 English dub will be produced by Crunchyroll.

This article is full of things about BOFURI: Don’t Hurt. I would like to see you, please do not max out My Defense Season 2, so I ll have to add the nano to our series of two, and also all related news. According to this article, it’ll be updated over time with updates, rumors, and analysis. As in the meantime, let’s look at what is certainly known.
Why was this thread delayed to January 2023, because I don’t want to get Hurt, so Ill Max Out My Defense Season 2.
The announcement date for BOFURI was posted to Silverlink or any company related to the production of the BOFURI: I don’t want to get irritated, and thus Ill Max Out My Defense anime hasn’t officially confirmed the exact date for the release date of the last episode of this special episode. The BFPURI sequel has confirmed it will come out in January 2023.
The article will be updated with the relevant information after the announcement is confirmed.
In the past, Kadokawa has been pretty quick to renew the anime series if its popular enough. Since the anime series have generated a good portion of their revenues, the Japanese publisher has pledged to release at least one new isekai anime per season.
While technically not an isekai, BOFURI could be popular enough that Maple and Sally can appear in Isekai Quartet Season 3 which includes cameos from Cautious Heros Seiya and Ristarte already.
Anime productions are scheduled up years in advance, and many anime studios are already booked properly. In 2022, Silver Link was working on anime adaptations for light novels like Myest Demon, The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as a Typical Noon and like where I’ll be to hire Ayumu so a lot, and When I’ll Hire The Big Ten I Hired recently Is Mysterious.
Since the announcement of the season 2 of the BOFURI anime took place in January 20, 21, it would be possible that the second season in 2022 should have been delayed, but due to unforeseen circumstances.
Maybe it was COVID? The producer probably felt that the schedule for the production needs more time. Perhaps there were unexpected scheduling conflicts with other projects? If we don’t know the real reason, it wasn’t best that it was delayed to keep up the animation quality.
A short novel called BOFURI, is compared to the manga in the light of course.
The anime series has a description of the Itai no wa Iya nano de Bougyoryoku by the author Yuumikan and the illustrator Koin. The UL as of August 10, 2022, the light novel adaptation BOFURI exceeded Volume 14, was accelerated to volume 14.
The long title has been officially translated by FUNimation as BOFURI: I don’t want to be Hurt, therefore I will max out My Defense. But the title is sometimes translated into English as I hate to be Hurt, so I put all my skill points into my defense.
Fans jokingly refer to the series as Shield Hero online, Maple Story or Shield Heroine. It is not too surprising that the collaboration event with The Rising Of The Shield Hero is going to be held on the phone on the BOFURI game.
The official website states that the series sold over 700,000 copies when December 6, 2019. By December 2021, the distribution of everything was up to 1.6 million copies.
The light novel series published by Kadokawa is as follows a web novel that began writing in 2016 on the mobile app Shosetsuka ni Naro.
The special edition cover art for BOFURI Volume 11 is shown. Koin is your credit card.
Starting in May 2018, illustrator Jiro Oimoto took the story to a new medium for a manga series. When the anime was written in Kadokawa Shotens Monthly Comp Ace magazine, the manga was reached Volume 6 in August 2622.
The Yen Press announced an official English translation of the BOFURI light novels in October 2020. The English books went up to Volume 8.
The Yen Press, which was announced as the BOFURI mangas English translation, announced a third of this page. The English manga was published until October 18, 2022.
In comparison to the anime, the light novels and the manga BOFURI possess unique artistic and character qualities. Koin, Jiro Oimoto and the other two.
Did you ever play an MMO where boss rooms are strewn randomly across the map with loots of protective minions in sight? Then you can think about what a light novel criticizes.
Maple move slower than a turtle, but the anime adaptation is doing a bit of a flick by the light novel and manga adrift (see our article on the series 2 of Arifureta, which has been confirmed). The characterization in BOFURIs story still feels right, but the problem is that in later episodes dungeons are no longer dungeons anymore.
Exploration has far away, especially since the emphasis on major moments like boss defeats. Normal enemies, like goblins (manga chapter 9), angry yeti, birds and clone battles (manga chapter 13) are all skipped.
This is pretty odd given that Maple and Sally can hunt for gold coins casually without having to fight creature mobs or other creatures during their mountain climb. At its worst, the treasure hunt, seems empty. Maple has to stumble into a hidden hole, in front of a grassy field rather than to try and find a hidden staircase hidden by mirage magic.
Non only does the dungeons do no longer make sense in MMO terms, but even the quest for the Super Speed skill was rendered unsensical. Originally, to gain the speed skill, Sally completed a time attack challenge self-directed, but with the help of the anime, this quests goal was combined with Sally’s fear of ghosts (manga chapter 10). But how does titling a rapid skill help the crow of a child be treated for healing?
The anime skipped a side story (manga Chapter 8) that Maple urged Iz the blacksmith to collect the necessary materials for the snow white shield. The dessert scene was included but not how the girls decided to spend all their money eating sweets since it is impossible to get fat in an MMO.
In the later episodes, the boss fights against the giant squid, Predator and Machine God was shortened and the fight against evil Sally and evil Maple was skipped. Some events were reordered so as to keep the story going.
The quests of the Maple Tree guild members to acquire necessary skills quickly re-entered. Many other moments were limited to still screenshots in a montage sequence.
The manga BOFURI takes very long time discussing the mechanics of MMOs but not as much as the light novel or web novel series. Jim Koyada has the best time he’s gone.
Out of the skipped contents, earlier chapters were completely adapted, the MMO explained about reducing min-maxing. In fact, much of the lengthy dialogue about Mechanics, statistics, and games has been minimalized in animes script. It means that anime-only audiences can’t understand precisely how Maple broke the game and why its devs are pretty much: ()
Similarly, the Machine God can sacrifice the original number of enemies’ current equipment in exchange for extremely powerful weapons. Normally, this skill is considered a resort, since it would destroy players armor, but a Maples armor set is a rare item that gives that drawback by autorepairing it. Out of that, every time she uses Machine God her armor comes back stronger thanks to its Destruction Growth Capacity, thus making Machine God stupidly OP.
The anime didn’t explain why Maple needed new armor for her Angel form. It’s not just color coordination; Maple needed an HP increase provided by the new armor because the Angel form sacrifices HP to protect the character of her guild members.
The anime seems to find out that Maple is a walking paradox in the game. During each episode, the anime shows that Maple is generating buzz on bulletin boards and chat rooms. (In Episode 8, some poor rando laments were zapped to death Kazuma-style by the stray energy beam from the Maples Machine God fight.)
The manga and light novels detail these discussions in a lot, including how the top players of New World Online were able to adore her clueless yet moe savagery. Even the developers are often talking about Maple breaking the game, but this is shown briefly in anime.
He said to be a tense man that is the ultimate liar, but in the anime, she looks amazing going pew-pew with OP mecha lasers (though technically she started with bullets and missiles in the books, but it isn’t picking it up at this moment). Photo credit: XiP
On the positive side, Studio Silver Link really did boost those boss’s battles. CGI in action seems to be a great technique when used in action scenes.
Condensing content is inevitable when a light novel series is introduced into an anime so it arguably has the focus where it needs to be: character development and letting these cute girls tell their stories and personalities with unconventional playing.
I know, that animes were just fine writing the film. In order to achieve the best stop point it can be: the guild-war event and the Maples battle against Payne.
Maple might have monstrous skills, but Payne is number one; he can’t take down Maple for only his whole party. Of course, she has not learned about Maples Atrocity, aka Mapzilla.
The twins May and Yui were introduced more often in the anime than in light novels and web novels. I mention the silver link (BOFURI Episode 3).
Note: This article is updated following BOFURI: I Don’t Want To Get Hurt, so Ill Max Out My Defense Episode 12 aired in Japan.
In this web novel, the fight between Payne and Maple began in Chapter 118. Chapter 122 was when the ancient flames helped Mii and the Flame Emperors. In the last few chapters, we explained how multi-Mapzilla stomped across the guild. The Maple Tree celebration was organized in Chapter 127 with the guilds.
In the meantime, the BOFURI episode 12 became a final in the Maple Tree guild battle of light novel Volume 4 – a short-figured ending. That’s good news since this stopping point leaves plenty of light novel source material for the BOFURI upcoming anime.
The bad news is that anime adaptation has already surpassed the BOFURI manga series. The conclusion of BOFURI episode 4 corresponded to the first half of manga Chapter 13 (the anime skipped the battle against the fake copies of Maple and Sally). BOFURI Episode 5 was adapted to chapter 14 of Volume 3, which introduced the BOFURI character Kasumi.
Since new manga chapters are published monthly it’ll likely take years to follow the anime’s adventures.
Unfortunately, all readers, who want to read during the anime, should only read fan translations of the web novel. It is recommended that you begin with Chapter 129.
BOFURI: tragic story of the young girl corrupted by her abominations and transformed into an extortion to hell. Just kidding, but the upcoming BOFURI anime will have Maple eating a lot more monsters in order to gain tentacles. A girl’s stomach is jerk. “Menucle Books” are from Koin (BOFURI Vol. 8)
Iya nano de Bougyoryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu Season 2 spoilers (plot summary/synopsis)
Note: Spoilers for BOFURI Season 2 assume that the story will go to volume 5.
The girls, on the last day that we watched Maple and Sally, had defeated the big guild. This act earned respect for the Maple Tree guild, and now Maple has the opportunity to spend a lot of time with each other.
Maple’s next level of New World Online, which is opening a month later, will be on the adventure of the guild masters. And how does the player, the strongest in the game, look in this VIT-centric moe?
Level 6 of the game contains horrible areas where demons roam. Cooperating with the powerful guild masters reminds Maple of a particular anomaly that she’s encountered. With Sally and her work, Maple manages to cause a game bug.
If you are poor game administrators, all the time trying to keep a step ahead of the Maple Leafs! She’s always trying to figure out new ways to make things interesting.
Maple proposes to go with two other friends besides Sally in a new game event. Maple wants to give Sally the opportunity to enjoy the earlier level. While her usual ally is separated, Maple makes things interesting, choosing the highest difficulty.
Speaking about difficulty, level 7 is when the monsters become huge scale. The maple must acquire the tools to take on those new challenges.
Unfortunately, anime fans have to wait for the forthcoming postponement date for the BOFURI season 2 release to watch what happens next. Stay tuned.
