Alice In Borderland Season 2

Upon the opening of "Alice in Borderland" Season 1, Ryohei Arisu enters into an alternate reality in which he and a number of other contestants must win video game-inspired challenges or die. Both Arisu and his closest in-game friend Yuzuha Usagi ultimately survive the events of Season 1. That said, they learn that Mira Kano, who initially presents herself as a helpful presence, is one of the architects behind the games and takes pleasure in the deaths of its entrants. Furthermore, two contestants with whom Arisu forms a sort of bond — Asahi Kujo (Mizuki Yoshida) and Momoka Inoue (Kina Yazaki) — reveal themselves to be traitorous prior to their deaths late in the season. Arisu, then, will likely be moving into the next stage of the contest trusting few of his fellow competitors aside from Usagi.

Before it was adapted into live action, "Alice in Borderland" was a manga series by author Haro Aso. In a Reddit thread about the show's source material, user NewTeaBar estimates that Season 1 covers the events of roughly 29 out of a total 64 manga chapters. Should Netflix continue to pull directly from the series' source material, then, Season 2 could very well include the manga's ending. Or, should Netflix prefer to extend its hit series, new surprises could be in store for Usagi, Arisa, and each other remaining player fighting for their survival.
