May I Ask for One Final Thing? (Saigo ni Hitotsu dake Onegai shitemo Yoroshii deshou ka) has quietly become one of the standout anime of Fall 2025. What started as a shojo setup quickly turned into something much more - an action-packed ride full of personality, punches, and political plots. And now, as Season 1 winds down, fans can’t help but look ahead to what a second season might bring.
Season 1 Recap and What’s Left
Everything began at a noble ball, where Scarlet’s fiancé, the smug Prince Kyle, publicly ended their engagement. Rather than reacting with tears or heartbreak, Scarlet calmly asked for “one final thing”… and then knocked his new lover across the ballroom. That moment - punctuated by her chilling words,
“Before I leave here, may I ask for one final thing? May I send this stupid b**ch flying.” - Scarlet El Vandimion
This iconic moment set the tone for everything that followed.
From there, Scarlet left behind her noble life and teamed up with Crown Prince Julius, uncovering dangerous secrets inside the kingdom. Her journey included facing off against a sinister force known as Terenezza, taming a dragon (yes, really), and saving lives with equal parts strategy and strength.
If you're still catching up, here’s the release schedule for the final three episodes of Season 1:
- Episode 11 - December 5
- Episode 12 - December 12
- Episode 13 (the finale) - December 19
The show is streaming on Crunchyroll with both sub and dub. If you're new to it, definitely check out the Season 1 official trailer 2 down below to see what kind of ride you’re in for.
When Could Season 2 Arrive?
There’s no official announcement as of writing this article, but the likelihood of a second season feels high. The anime is based on a light novel and manga series that has plenty of story left to tell. Plus, Season 1 is ending at Episode 13 - a number that’s commonly used for split-cour anime (where the second part of the season airs after a short break).
Given that, we could realistically see Season 2 arrive by Summer or Fall 2026, possibly in July if production stays on track. With its rising popularity and solid pacing, a continuation feels more like a matter of “when” than “if.”
What Season 2 Will Likely Cover?
Assuming the anime follows the manga’s progression, the next season will dive straight into the next wave of political and magical chaos. Scarlet’s world is getting bigger - and more dangerous. Here's what’s coming:
Tensions With Falconia
- Talks with the elf and beastkin nation are close to breaking. One wrong step, and war might erupt.
Nanaka’s Return Isn’t So Simple
- Although he's back, doubts are swirling about whether he’s still under Terenezza’s influence. His loyalty could be a ticking time bomb.
Prince Alflame Has Plans
- The flamboyant Vankish prince isn’t just here for comic relief. He wants Scarlet to back his royal claim - and he’s not subtle about wanting her hand, either.
Scarlet’s Time-Based Powers May Evolve
- Her divine blessing from Chronoa gives her time-manipulating abilities. Season 2 could introduce even more devastating moves in her arsenal.
The Nicknames Aren’t Stopping
- She’s been called “Scar-po,” “Big Boss,” and “Boss Nee-san” - and her legend is only growing, both in-world and among the fandom.
Why Scarlet Stands Out Among Anime Heroines
What makes May I Ask for One Final Thing? so refreshing isn’t just its world-building or story pacing - it’s Scarlet. She’s confident, competent, and never relies on anyone to save her. When faced with danger, she doesn't hesitate to act, often solving problems with a well-placed punch before anyone else has time to panic. As she once said:
“I’ll hit the one who pisses me off. This is ladylike behavior” - Scarlet El Vandimion
Her strength draws people in. Rex the dragon went from enemy to ride-or-die ally after one defeat. A whole army of elite dragoons respects her enough to call her their boss. Even Prince Julius, quiet and reserved as he is, can’t ignore her growing presence - though he’s slower to catch on to how he feels.
Meanwhile, Alflame is the wild card. He’s flashy, loud, and not shy about flirting mid-battle - only to get flattened by Scarlet in response. It creates a fun romantic triangle that’s both chaotic and genuinely entertaining to watch.
Blending Shojo and Shonen Flawlessly
What sets this show apart is how it combines two genres that don’t always mesh. The show brings in shojo elegance - grand balls, high society, and romantic tension - and layers in fast-paced action scenes you’d expect from a fantasy shonen title.
Scarlet’s fights aren’t just about brute force. She’s graceful, precise, and yes, dramatic. She’s even stopped mid-battle to lecture orcs on etiquette - and still walked away victorious.
She’s often described as having the strength of Yor Forger and the dignity of Violet Evergarden. That combination has made her one of 2025’s most talked-about heroines - and for good reason.
Season 2 has a real chance to push things even further. With more kingdoms, deeper power systems, and rising stakes, the next chapter could take what already works and make it unforgettable.

Closing Thoughts
There are only three episodes left in the current season, and if you haven’t caught up yet, now’s the time. Scarlet’s story is just heating up, and with so much still to resolve, it’s clear she’s not going anywhere.
May I Ask for One Final Thing? has given us a heroine unlike any other - stylish, strong, and unafraid to throw the first punch. And when Season 2 eventually lands, she’ll be right back where she belongs: at the center of it all, fists clenched, ready for whatever comes next.
