There are currently no plans for The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2 to appear on Netflix.

The show appearing on Netflix in the future isn’t out of the question. The first season of Rising of the Shield Hero is available on Netflix in Japan and some other east Asian nations.

However, even if season 2 did appear on Netflix in the future, it’s unlikely it will be anytime soon. At the earliest, Netflix usually gets series once they’ve finished airing in Japan, and that’s only when there is a global licencing agreement already in place, which is not the case with The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 2.
