The Witch and the Beast Season 2: release date of new episodes

The release date for season 2 of The Witch and the Beast will most likely have to wait, since the release of the original manga was paused due to problems with the author. The first part covered half of the published chapters almost frame by frame, but there is a high probability that the management of Yokohama Animation Laboratory will decide to continue releasing the anime when the manga is back in production. The title is a representative of the seinen genre, and the action takes place in a dark fantasy setting with all the attendant elements.

The series is quite original and stands out among the projects released in recent years, which is what attracted viewers. In this article, fans of the show will find all the known information about Season 2 of The Witch and the Beast, which is updated in a timely manner.

When will The Witch and the Beast season 2 be released?

It is unknown whether it will be possible to watch season 2 of the anime The Witch and the Beast in the next year or two or not. The release of the original source has been suspended due to the author's health problems, and half of the currently published chapters have been filmed. There is now enough material for the new season, but not very much, so most likely the studio will decide to wait for the return of the manga.

There is no announcement for the second season yet and no details have been provided about future plans for the anime. Under such conditions, the release will take place no earlier than 2026-2027 years.

After the sequel to The Witch and the Beast is announced and the first details about the project are revealed, the schedule will be immediately updated and supplemented. Information is currently quite limited, and the schedule is based on theories and assumptions.

Briefly about the events of the previous season of the anime

Ashaf and Gido are two employees of the Order of Magical Resonance who search for and capture escaped witches. Each of them pursues their own desires and has their own secrets. Guido strives to find the witch Angela-Anna Hull, who cursed her, while Aschaf hides his true goals.

As a result of the curse, Guido's personality is locked in a female witch form, and her real body, which has incredible power, rests in a coffin that Aschaf carries on his back. Only the witch who cast it can remove the spell, but a kiss with another witch can temporarily cancel the spell and allow you to use your real body.

The first episodes are devoted to individual tasks of a couple of protagonists related to the witch theme. Also, several episodes are devoted to their colleagues: the necromancer Fanora Christofl and the dead man Johan revived by her. At the request of Guido and Ashaf, they investigate a case related to illegal necromancy.

The second half of the series begins a large and important story arc focusing on Helga Velvett, who was framed for a series of murders in the city. The Paladin Corps, in alliance with an emissary of the Holy Church, begins hunting for the witch girl, and the reason for everything is the Kagotsurube Isshin Ashgan, which she owns. The Inquisitors targeted this relic, and their Executioner deceived the head of the Paladin Corps, Matt Kuga.

With the help of Aschaf and the release of his true form, Gido manages to protect both the sword and Helga, and regain Kuga's power. After these events, Angela Anna herself appears on the scene, leaving clues for the main characters to help them find her. In accordance with the instructions, the partners are sent to an anomalous zone, a hole between worlds, to a level inhabited by vampires.

What will happen in the second season of The Witch and the Beast?

It is expected that the new season of The Witch and the Beast will start with the events taking place on the fourth vampire level and will follow the search for new clues from Hull.
