What Could Happen in Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf Season 2? Plot Predictions
The second season of Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf could explore Juzo Fujimaki's time in prison, where he could face some of the strongest fighters and brawlers in the series, which could help improve his combat prowess.
It's also possible that the second season could give more spotlight to Bunshichi Tanba, who's originally the main protagonist of the Garouden series, rather than Fujimaki.
There's also the possibility of a rematch between Himekawa and Fujimaki, since the latter is in desperate need of redemption.
As usual, take all these predictions with a grain of salt.
