After nine long years, fans of the ridiculously popular isekai series Saga of Tanya the Evil finally have something big to rejoice about, as its long-awaited second season has just unveiled its new teaser visual and promotional video. Reasonably so, the teasers have reignited fans' excitement for the anime.
Earlier this year, one of the animators working for studio NUT accidentally revealed that the anime would return in 2026. And as stated, Saga of Tanya the Evil Season 2 is set to premiere in 2026. Additionally, the anime revealed its new director, Takayuki Yamamoto.
Saga of Tanya the Evil Season 2 Unveils 2026 Debut
On Friday, November 28, Kadokawa Anime revealed a new teaser visual and promotional video for Saga of Tanya the Evil Season 2. According to the teasers, the anime's second season will premiere in 2026.
The teaser visual solely focuses on the protagonist, Tanya von Degurechaff, as she could be seen playing a piano while sitting in a room engulfed in flames. While the fire could be a result of an enemy attack, Tanya can be seen with a menacing, fearless expression.
As for the teaser promotional video, it opens with a flashback of "Being X" blocking Tanya's path in the first season. While the Empire was winning each of its battles, Tanya was unsatisfied as she wished to exit the battlefield to live a peaceful life. As such, she seemed prepared to end the war by any means necessary.
All episodes of Saga of Tanya the Evil Season 1 will be available to watch for free on ABEMA, starting November 29, 8 PM JST.
