The second season of the Reincarnated as a Sword anime has a firm release path. It will debut on the ABEMA streaming service on September 30, ahead of its October 7 television premiere on Tokyo MX and ABC TV. That two-week head start mirrors the pattern the first season used in 2022. HIDIVE will stream the season as it airs in Japan, with availability in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.
The production returns with much of its core team. Shinji Ishihira directs at C2C, Takahiro Nagano writes and supervises scripts, Atsuko Saito handles character design, and Yasuharu Takanashi composes the music. The cast includes Ai Kakuma as Fran, Shinichiro Miki as Master, and Yuma Uchida as Jean du Vix. HIDIVE will host the North American premiere at Anime NYC on August 22, with a panel featuring Ishihira and producers Yosuke Shimada and Genta Ozaki.
Music for the season is set. Sony Music Labels announced that FZMZ, a five-member avatar band, performs the opening theme "DREAM OF BUTTERFLY," their first new song in two years and their third original in that span. The ending theme is "Baribari Buddy" by Hanabie. A manga spinoff titled Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita My Dish by Itsuki Fujioka launches on Micro Magazine's Comic Ride service on September 30.
