According to Crunchyroll, major details of the upcoming installment will be revealed in the 43rd issue of Kodansha's Weekly Shonen Magazine of 2016.

Although the second season is already confirmed, the production has not yet given a final date for the anime's launching but only stated it is slated for a 2016 airing, Release Date Info reported. Still, fans over at When Will Anime are continuously asking for an exact date of the second season.
