The second anime in the Shadowverse series is Shadowverse Flame, and it brings Cygames’ smartphone game to TV screens.
The original game is still thriving and is available from the App Store and Google Play.
Crunchyroll is streaming the first Shadowverse and describe the anime;
The Shadowverse Club Tournament begins! Light Tenryu came to Shadowverse College without knowing the first thing about Shadowverse and joined Seventh Flame, a Shadowverse club on the verge of being shut down. He falls in love with playing Shadowverse while working with his friends Subaru Makabe and Itsuki Mitsutagawa to find new club members. He faces off in fierce battles against opponents using a wide array of cards, and finally succeeds in recruiting Gentleman, Ren Kazamatsuri, and Tsubasa Takanashi to his team. Now Seventh Flame is reborn, and he and his friends are challenged to enter the Shadowverse Club Tournament that will decide who’s the strongest of them all. Each member of Seventh Flame faces Shadowverse in their own way, and in the process, they grow stronger and more confident. But none of their opponents will be easy to defeat. Powerful rivals await them at the Shadowverse Club Tournament. Will Light be able to reach Haruma and make up for his earlier defeat? A battle where each player’s pride and love of Shadowverse is on the line is about to begin!
However, the first show hasn’t reviewed very well, with 2.5/5 on the platform. There’s not a great number of ratings, but most are 1/5.
The anime is barely related to the game, with a new story and new characters. The first has the hero Hiiro Ryugasaki get a strange smartphone with the Shadowverse game. The second is a coming of age for the protagonist Light Tenryu.
This new season has already started and is rolling straight from the back of the first.
