Renewed Or Cancelled?
Fishbowl Wives is an 8 episode Japanese drama, playing out as part-anthology and part-romantic drama. This 8 episode drama has been quite the turbulent ride, but after that ambiguous ending, you may be wondering if this one’s been renewed or cancelled.
What is Fishbowl Wives about?
Fishbowl Wives is a romantic drama, depicting the trials and tribulations of six different women and their estranged relationships. At the center of this happens to be Sakura, who’s stuck in an abusive relationship with partner Takuya. When she finds solace in a goldfish owner called Haruto, the pair hit it off immediately. Revolving around that are various other women and their relationship woes too. We have coverage for Fishbowl Wives across the site, including recaps for all 8 episodes and a full season review.

Has Fishbowl Wives been renewed for season 2?
At the time of writing, Fishbowl Wives has not been renewed for a second season. However, given the nature of the ambiguous ending, that could change. Generally Netflix would gauge numerous metrics before renewing a show, including how many people initially watch it and then looking at the drop-off rate. With some shows, cancellations or renewals happen quickly (ala. Squid Game, Bridgerton & Irregulars) Other times, it can take months before Netflix make a decision over a show’s future. So far, Fishbowl Wives has had a rather lukewarm reception from both critics and audiences alike. Based on this, along with the rumblings that the story is now finished, we predict that Fishbowl Wives will not be renewed for a second season. We’ll be sure to update this section with accurate details over the coming weeks and months when we know more!
What we know about season 2 so far:
Barely anything is known about season 2 at this point, given Netflix have not green-lit a sequel. However, the conclusion does leave the main plot line somewhat resolved, although the ambiguousness of our main couple does leave that door open for more. If Netflix do decide to renew this, expect this to be explored in more detail and potentially to include more relationships from different apartment complex members. We’ll be sure to update this page in the future when more information is known! Would you like to see Fishbowl Wives return for a second season? Or do you think the story has run its course?
