Sora Amamiya is attached to two 2027 television anime (The Moon on a Rainy Night as Kanon Oikawa, and I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World Season 2 as Mai Kagurazaka) and to the November 6 worldwide Amazon Prime Video premiere of Devils' Crest as Sumika Watamaki.
Sora Amamiya's 2026 slate moved from supporting additions in summer series to lead-adjacent roles in productions with announced 2027 dates. In May she was named as Erin White in the Weakest MAX Lady anime, directed by Nobuaki Nakanishi at Jumondo and scheduled for October 2026. In August she joined From Overshadowed to Overpowered as Tatiana, the older sister of Anastasia, a character who appears in the eighth episode on August 19.
Two cast announcements followed in September. Devils' Crest, the television anime of Reki Kawahara's Demons' Crest novels, cast her as Sumika Watamaki alongside Yusuke Kobayashi, Maaya Uchida and Rie Murakawa, ahead of a November 6 worldwide premiere on Amazon Prime Video. Days later, Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle named her as Mai Todo for its second cours, which premieres October 13, 2026 on AT-X with later airings on Tokyo MX, BS11, Sun TV, KBS Kyoto, Fukui Broadcasting and TV Aichi.
October brought the further-out commitments. The Moon on a Rainy Night, the television anime of Kuzushiro's manga, cast her as Kanon Oikawa opposite Iori Saeki as Saki Kindaichi, with Tomoe Makino directing at CompTown and a 2027 premiere slated. The same month, I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World Season 2 named her as Mai Kagurazaka, a former shrine maiden summoned to another world as the Saintess, with Shin Itagaki returning to direct at Millepensee and a January 2027 debut set.
The roles run across villainess comedy, a Kawahara novel adaptation, a manga romance and a returning isekai, and the announcements attach her to productions at several different studios. The most recent stories put three of her roles in 2027 windows; none of the seven stories states a release date beyond January 2027.
