Is ‘Darling in the FranXX' returning for season 2? Everything we know so far
Darling in the FranXX captivated anime fans with its unique blend of mecha action, romance, and dystopian themes when it aired in 2018. Produced by Studio Trigger, A-1 Pictures, and CloverWorks, the series left viewers with a bittersweet ending, sparking endless discussions about a potential Darling in the FranXX Season 2. But is a second season actually in the works? Here's everything we know so far about the possibility of a Darling in the FranXX season 2. Is Darling in the FranXX Season 2 Confirmed?
As of May 2025, there is no official confirmation from A-1 Pictures, CloverWorks, or Studio Trigger regarding Darling in the FranXX Season 2. The lack of updates has left fans in limbo, with discussions ongoing across platforms like X. In 2019, a post on X mentioned that a second season was 'in discussion,' but nothing was solidified. Since then, no credible sources have provided concrete evidence of production moving forward. What's Next for Darling in the FranXX Fans?
For now, Darling in the FranXX Season 2 remains a dream rather than a reality. While the series' strong fanbase and past sales success keep hope alive, the lack of official updates suggests that a sequel is not imminent. Fans can revisit the original series on streaming platforms like Crunchyroll or Funimation, read the manga for a slightly different perspective.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs' fans drench themselves in baby oil to celebrate rapper's trial verdict
The bombshell verdict in Sean "Diddy" Combs' criminal trial has sparked an unexpected reemergence of baby oil among fans. Ardent supporters of the embattled hip-hop mogul gathered outside Manhattan court on July 2 to celebrate the conclusion of Combs' nearly two-month trial, according to footage shared on social media. The Grammy-winning rapper, 55, was found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution but acquitted on the most serious charge of racketeering and both sex trafficking counts. After learning of his partial acquittal, Combs clasped his hands together and raised them in a prayer motion toward the jury. Some of Combs' fans expressed enthusiasm by covering themselves in baby oil, a controversial item referenced throughout the sweeping federal sex-crimes case. Baby oil and lubricant, specifically over 1,000 bottles, were among the paraphernalia discovered during the federal raids of Combs' homes in March 2024, U.S. attorney Damian Williams revealed in a September 2024 press conference. In one clip, shared by news outlet TMZ and X user CultureClips, a female fan wearing a blue wig could be heard chanting, "I want the baby oil!" while she jumped around in excitement. In another video, shared by X user Katherine Harris, a shirtless male fan screamed "More oil!" as he reacted to the verdict news with other spectators. Baby oil was among the paraphernalia discovered during the federal raids of Combs' homes in March 2024, U.S. attorney Damian Williams revealed in a September 2024 press conference. The items included multiple AR-15 guns, large-capacity magazines, "evidence" of Combs' alleged sex crimes and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant. Diddy fans celebrate his 'not guilty' verdict outside the courthouse by pouring baby oil on each other 😭😭 According to Combs' original indictment, the baby oil bottles found in his homes were used during the hip-hop mogul's alleged "freak off" parties, which were described as "elaborate and produced sex performances" that involved sex workers. Other items included multiple AR-15 guns, large-capacity magazines and additional "evidence" of Combs' alleged sex crimes. Fans' emphatic celebration of Combs' verdict mirrors similar behavior throughout the high-profile trial, which ignited a ferocious media circus among journalists, social media influencers and zealous supporters of Combs. Inside the court's overflow rooms, where many reporters and onlookers watched the trial unfold on midsize TV screens, fans' antics went largely unchecked by security, as they cackled, booed and hissed profanities when the rapper's accusers took the stand. Social media slams Diddy verdict: 'A nasty precedent' Much like the verdict in Combs' case, the court of public opinion has been split on the rapper's legal fate. Unlike Combs' oil-lathered fans outside the courthouse, many on social media expressed their disappointment at the partial acquittal in Combs' verdict. Some A-list critics of the disgraced music mogul, including 50 Cent and Danity Kane singer Aubrey O'Day, also criticized the ruling. "The Diddy verdict is going to set a nasty precedent and trend for what people (especially those with wealth & power) believe they can get away with, when it comes to sex, domestic violence, (and) abuse crimes," one X user wrote. "And that's honestly, the most terrifying part of this entire case." 10 bingeable memoirs to check out: Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé Some social media users also shared their dismay at the significance of the verdict for victims of sexual abuse. "The verdict for Diddy is a message to all women that they are not believed. Sorry to the women out there," an X user wrote. "The victims especially, they deserved better."

Rihanna Reveals Her Go-To Karaoke Song By This R&B Newcomer
Rihanna made a striking appearance at the Smurfs world premiere in Brussels on June 28, where she revealed her go-to karaoke song by one of R&B's talented newcomers. Dressed in a sheer baby blue Chanel ensemble, a very pregnant Rih shared with Capital FM her current go-to karaoke song — naming Mariah The Scientist's 'Burning Blue' ballad. The 37-year-old singer and business mogul paused for a moment, then smiled as she revealed her pick. 'Oh my gosh, it's, it's, it's … maybe 'Burning Blue' by Mariah the Scientist,' she shared with a laugh. The emotional ballad released in May as the lead single from Mariah's upcoming fourth studio album, and the track has already made waves at No. 38 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The premiere not only drew attention to Rihanna and her baby bump, but A$AP Rocky as well, who seemingly spilled the beans on their growing family. During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Rocky hinted at the sex of their unborn child. When asked if the 'girl' he had been waiting for had arrived, the Harlemite smiled and gestured to a Smurfette toy, saying, 'It is, man, it is.' When Rihanna was asked the same question later, she played it coy, teasing, 'Let's see if it's a Smurfette! I don't know! Could be a Papa Smurf! Who knows!' Both are already parents to two sons RZA, 3, and Riot, 1. Rihanna also spoke on whether the baby's name would follow the family tradition and start with an R like her sons RZA and Riot, the 'Lift Me Up' singer confirmed: 'It's always going to be an R name — that's the one thing me and Rocky don't fight over.' Take a look at Rihanna shouting out Mariah The Scientist's 'Burning Blue' song and speaking on her and A$AP Rocky's third child. Smurfs opens in theaters on July 18.
