If you’ve been following this anime, you may be curious to know when the first episode will be released. Well, wonder no more!

Here is everything you need to know about episode 8 of The Fire Hunter Season 2, including the release date, time, and where to watch this.

Where Can I Watch The Fire Hunter Season 2?

The Fire Hunter Season 2 is airing in Japan on WOWOW and other social channels. It is available to stream on Crunchyroll outside of Asian territories. 

The Fire Hunter Season 2 Episode 8 Release Date

The Fire Hunter Season 2 Episode 8 will be released on Sunday 3rd March at approximately 9am (GMT) / 1am (PT) / 3am (CT). Of course, it’s dependent on how quickly the platform uploads new episodes. Expect this to be pretty close to the release time though.

The Fire Hunter Season 2 is not available with the dubbing from the release so expect the native Japanese tongue with subtitles to be up first. Dubbing will likely arrive later on down the line.

Season 2 Episode 8 is titled “Heavenly Beast” and will be 24 minutes long. 

How Many Episodes Will The Fire Hunter Season 2 Have?

It has not been officially announced how many episodes The Fire Hunter Season 2 will drop with, but if we’re to wager a guess, it’s likely to be around a 10-episode season order, with one episode releasing a week.

This would fall in line with the previous season’s episode count and release schedule. So with that in mind, we’ve got 3 more episodes left after this week’s chapter airs. 

We’ll be sure to update future previews with accurate details when we receive “episode count” details from a credible source.

What Happened In Episode 7?

In The Fire Hunter Season 2 Episode 7, Takimi tells Koushi to hand Hinako over to him. Suddenly, Mizore arrives. Mizore and Takimi attack each other. Afterward, Kira arrives and we learn the Flickering Flame is successfully inside her. The Flickering Flame and Takimi chat about a few things until Hibari shows up. 

Hibari and Takimi discuss their grievances with each other’s clans. Suddenly, Hinako awakens and attacks Hibari. Simultaneously, Roroku arrives and attacks Takimi before he can inject Hinako with a concoction. After Takimi perishes, Roroku tells Koushi to head home with Hinako. Meanwhile, he plans to deliver the petition to the Lady Goddess. 

While doing that, Roroku gets attacked by someone from the Earth Clan. The Earth Clan member harms Mizore in the process. Suddenly, Yuoshichi exits the divine palace, carrying the Lady Goddess and a knife in hand. He stabs the Lady Goddess. At the same time, his butler kills himself along with the Earth Clansmen. 

Yuoshichi turns his attention to the Flickering Flame and plans to murder her next. The episode closes with the Flickering Flame turning her head toward Yuoshichi.
