The anime series Disney Twisted-Wonderland The Animation has completed its first season, Episode of Heartslabyul, and its second season, Episode of Savanaclaw, is set to debut in December 2026. The series has also received a TCA Award nomination.
Disney Twisted-Wonderland The Animation, the anime adaptation of the smartphone game, is progressing through a planned series of seasons each focused on a different dorm. The first season, Episode of Heartslabyul, debuted in October 2025. In July 2026, Disney+ announced the second season, Episode of Savanaclaw, with a teaser visual and a December 2026 streaming debut. The announcement was timed to the birthday of Savanaclaw Dorm head Leona Kingscholar.
In June 2026, the series received a nomination from the Television Critics Association for its 42nd Annual TCA Awards, in the category Outstanding Achievement in Family Programming. This recognition places the anime alongside two live-action series based on Japanese stories, Drops of God and Last Samurai Standing, which were nominated in the new Outstanding International Series category. The nomination marks a rare acknowledgment of an anime adaptation by a major North American television critics' awards body.
The series continues to adapt the game's manga, with each season centered on a specific dorm. The December premiere of Episode of Savanaclaw confirms the series is continuing its planned three-season adaptation structure.
