Season 2 Returns After a Long Wait
The second season of the anime adaptation of Nigojū and Umibōzu’s light novel series finally premiered in Japan on October 7, and Crunchyroll is streaming it as it airs. The sequel was first announced way back in July 2022, with Kadokawa originally targeting a July premiere before delaying it to October.
Behind the scenes, Manabu Kurihara returns to direct the season at ENGI, with Deko Akao again handling series scripts and Yōsuke Itō designing the characters. Music comes from 40mP, who is composing the score as well as writing, arranging and composing the theme songs — Kōme performs the opening “Kono Shinzō ni Hanabata wo” (A Bouquet for This Heart), while Kagura Nana returns for the ending “Hakuchumu” (Daydreams).

Alongside the dub news, Crunchyroll expanded its music hub on Monday with fresh anime music videos, including the theme songs for Daemons of the Shadow Realm, Draw This, Then Die!, and Hana-Kimi season 2.
