The second season of the much awaited Gundam Build Fighters is set to release this month, October 2014, by TV Tokyo.

Gundam Build Fighters is just one of the many viral anime series in Japan and around the world. The first season aired back in 2013 and is made by Sunrise Studios. The studio is also responsible for the first ever series aired on April 1979 that featured mobile suits carrying the, now, iconic name of Gundam. Ever since, the series took off and a lot of fans fell in love with Gundam. Action figures and collectibles have since then spawned. Every year, Sunrise Studios release a Gundam series. This year, 2014, they will be releasing the second season of Gundam Build Fighters named Gundam Build Fighters: TRY.

An official announcement coming from the official website of Gundam Build Fighters revealed the second season and its plotline.

"Seven years have passed since Sei Iori won the 7th Gunpla Battle Championship World Tournament. The Gunpla Battle Championship is now run by Yajima Trading. With new rules and battle modes, the game's popularity has become even more widespread."

New characters will be introduced and new Gundam suits as well. Sekai Kamiki, a young martial artist who travels with his master, will be piloting the Burning Build Strike Gundam. Another new character, Yuuma Kousaka, who is a young Gunpla builder, will be piloting Zeta Gundam, a Lightning Gundam. Completing the list of the main characters is Fuuma Hishino, the only member of the Gunpla Battle Club in their school. Fuuma Hishino will be piloting the Winning Gundam. Together, they will be called as TRY Fighters from which the second season of Gundam Build Fighters get its subtitle name.

Other fans of the anime speculate that the new characters are closely related, in blood maybe, to the preceding season's old characters.
