Dota 2 Anime Off to a Good Start
News of Book 2 of Dota: Dragon's Blood came from the Dota 2 Twitter account. However, Valve didn't offer any new details regarding the upcoming season of Dota: Dragon's Blood. For now, all fans have to go on is the official logo for Book 2 of Dota: Dragon's Blood.
As previously mentioned, Dota: Dragon's Blood premiered on March 25 on Netflix. Soon after, it topped the charts of the popular video streaming service in multiple countries. Thus, it comes off as no surprise that Valve and Netflix decided to run the anime series for yet another season. Although this was probably expected considering earlier statements from the show's animation editor, who said that he's worked on as many as 24 episodes so far.
Book 1 of Dota: Dragon's Blood focused mostly on the story of David, better known as the Dragon Knight in the Dota 2 game. So far, the story has glossed over the eternal conflict between the Radiant and Dire. Instead, it mostly focuses on Davion's attempt to reconcile with his newfound powers. Dota 2 heroes like Mirana, the Priestess of the Moon, and the Moon Rider, Luna Moonfang, both play central roles in the story as well.
