Mizu’s Quest Continues: Blue Eye Samurai Season 2 Premiere Date & Teaser

Blue Eye Samurai Season 2 will pick up where it left off, as the mixed-race master of the sword, Mizu, sails toward London in search of the two remaining men who might be her father.

Logline:

“In Season 2, Mizu’s bloody quest continues in London, where she faces new friends, old foes, and her own demons. In Japan, Akemi and Taigen navigate Edo Castle under a dangerous new Shogun, while Ringo searches for new purpose.”

"A person in traditional blue clothing and a wide-brimmed hat wields a weapon, preparing for combat in a European village square with half-timbered houses, facing an armed opponent."
