The way forward for KPop Demon Hunters as a franchise stays unclear even because the massive Netflix hit acquired from Sony Photos Animation continues to dominate pop culture. The fandom, after all, expects a sequel—and it’s already abuzz with what’s subsequent for Rumi, Zoey, and Mira and their future to maintain the Honmoon sealed from the demon world.
Listed here are simply among the issues we’d like to see explored in an eventual (and possibly inevitable) KPop Demon Hunters 2.
Totally different Demon Hunter Eras
The mythology of the Demon Hunter lore goes deep if there was at all times a trio of singers holding the Honmoon down. It will be so cool to discover spinoffs of various eras by way of a sequence or anthology of shorts (assume Star Wars: Visions) that jumps round time durations and maybe different international locations.
I’m all in favour of studying if different cultures even have music magic wielders and the way demons would possibly work by way of business music to attempt to achieve management. I wish to find out about different bands, possibly in short-form spin-offs, to arrange new characters for the longer term. There are such a lot of potentialities!
Rumi’s Household Backstory

Rumi being the love youngster of a demon and a hunter is an origin story we wish to see. It’s good for a prequel or one way or the other pulling a Godfather 2 with twin timelines arcing into how that informs Rumi’s future.
Maybe we might glimpse her father’s and mom’s previous as they meet within the current to additional the complexities of fine vs. evil between the demons and the people. If Jinu could possibly be a good-guy demon, possibly Rumi’s father was too. There was a lot left unanswered by Celine (Rumi’s guardian); we don’t actually know what occurred to her mother and father or how they had been handled by Gwi-ma and the opposite good guys.
Theories have abounded about Rumi being associated to Gwi-ma, however being his daughter instantly appears unlikely—possibly his granddaughter? Would that be too Star Wars-y? It will be finest if Rumi’s lineage was explored with out her having to be a product of pure good and pure evil.
Bringing Jinu Again

Normally we predict characters ought to keep lifeless however not this man. Our boy Jinu deserves a second probability. His sacrifice was large so we’d wish to see him return not directly. A well-liked idea on-line is that he’s trapped in Rumi’s sword, which might make sense as he gave her his soul and have become part of the prism Honmoon. Plus, if Derpy and Sussie are nonetheless round, they may have the ability to discover him by way of their connection to tug him out of a backdoor of kinds. Possibly he’s human once more however doesn’t bear in mind who he was? We would like the drama and to have him earn his means again to Rumi; that’s each fulfilling and romantic. We don’t want any extra tragic star-crossed lovers; that might have been Rumi’s mother and father story however it doesn’t should be hers.
And talking of bringing again characters, possibly let’s give the Saja Boys an opportunity at redemption too. It will be good to see them come again as comedic reduction and attempt to do good whereas making extra good music. We miss Child and Abby. Maybe they’ll crew up with Huntr/x to defeat an even bigger risk. Additionally, extra Derpy and Sussie at all times and eternally, please.
A Full Huntr/x Album

As somebody who wished there was a Powerline album out of A Goofy Film and who excitedly purchased that particular version Josie and the Pussycats (2001) vinyl, I can not stress sufficient that we’d like an entire Huntr/x album. Songwriter EJAE (who does the singing voice for Rumi), together with voice solid singers Audrey Nuna (Mira) and Rei Ami (Zoey), will quickly be performing awards-season contender “Golden” on The Tonight Present Starring Jimmy Fallon, which looks like a check run for a real-life Huntr/x and extra music, we hope.
Huntr/x might actually do an entire sequel companion album—that will be so meta! The way forward for Huntr/x feels limitless as a result of we’d be seated to see a sequel film in a theater or at residence and go to the official tour with Huntr/x gentle sticks in hand. Do it for the followers!
Demon Hunter World Tune Contest

Image it: Huntr/x is the principle band we comply with because the sequel introduces an even bigger international risk that’s linked to Rumi’s household. Who you gonna name? A narrative alongside these traces might herald different Demon Hunters for an Avengers-style team-up from around the globe that’s half world music contest (like Eurovision) and half Mortal Kombat.
Possibly the latter could be too excessive for the world of KPop Demon Hunters however the baddies should be vanquished one way or the other. And these potential team-ups could be characters launched by way of pleasant competitors within the sequel, with their aspect tales featured in an anthology main as much as a 3rd movie the place all of it comes collectively.
