The 25 episodes of DARKER THAN BLACK were aired during April to September, 2007 on TBS and MBS network. It was a brainchild of Tensai Okamura known for WOLF'S RAIN and Project Blue Earth SOS who did the original story, direction and series composition.

There's no airing information apart from the words "Dai2ki Kettei! (lit. 2nd season decided!)" but the staff seem to be mainly the same as 1st season. Looks promising.

There's nothing about the characters or synopsis yet, but a new manga adaption Darker than Black: Shikkoku no Hana by Yuji Iwahara, the original character designer for the anime, is being serialized in Young Gangan since May 15 (the magazine's 11th issue). Maybe the anime will follow the manga's story?
