Kadokawa has released the official promotional video, key visual, and casting details for the upcoming second season of the television anime adaptation of writer Buncololi and illustrator Kantoku's Sasaki and Peeps light novel series. The new preview video also showcases the opening theme song titled "Unbroken" performed by MADKID, setting an energetic tone for the multi-world fantasy comedy's return.
Production Shifts and Cast Additions
The upcoming season arrives with notable adjustments to the creative team at animation studio SILVER LINK. Yūshi Ibe, who served as an episode director and assistant director during the first season, steps up into the main directorial chair. Yamato Ouchi transitions to the assistant director role, while Kazunori Ozawa takes charge of action supervision. Returning staff members include series script supervisor Deko Akao and character designer Saori Nakashiki, ensuring artistic continuity alongside the studio's evolving leadership.
Expanding the sprawling cast list, producers introduced two fresh characters joining the supernatural escapades:
- Tasuku Hatanaka as Himegami-kun
- Yū Sasahara as Eriel
Broadcast and Global Streaming
The second season is locked in for an October 7 premiere, broadcasting across Tokyo MX and BS NTV at 11:00 p.m. JST, alongside additional airings on AT-X. International audiences will be able to follow the ongoing interdimensional adventures, as Crunchyroll has confirmed plans to stream the new episodes worldwide following their Japanese television broadcast.
Originating as a web novel before capturing the top spots in Takarajimasha's Kono Light Novel ga Sugoi! guidebook, the franchise follows an exhausted corporate worker whose quiet trip to a pet shop turns upside down when his new avian companion reveals itself as an ancient sage from another realm.
