As the second season was announced just last February, some fans were expecting the show to come back maybe in early 2024. But now, it was revealed that The Eminence in Shadow Season 2 will release in October 2023.

The series’ return is much earlier than some expected, especially considering that the first season had 20 episodes and ended just a few months ago.

Along with the second season’s release date reveal, a new trailer was also released that featured the new voice cast members.

As the second season of this popular isekai show will feature new major characters, four new members of the show’s cast were revealed.

Next is Shizuka Ito as Yukine. Ito is best known for voicing Akeno Himejima in High School DxD and Rindo Kobayashi in Shokugeki no Soma.

Then, we have Tsuyoshi Koyama as Juggernaut. Many fans know Koyama as the voice of Vassago Casals in Sword Art Online and Youhei in Grimoire of Zero.

Finally, Tomokazu Sugita is cast as the voice of Crimson. Sugita is a popular VA who voiced Gintoki in Gintama, Kyon in The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, and Joseph Joestar in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Season 1.

While most shows feature between 12-26 episodes, The Eminence in Shadow is unusual, as its first season had 20 episodes.

Because of this, the first season aired from the beginning of Fall 2022 until the middle of the Winter 2023 season. But thanks to its popularity, the series was quickly renewed for a second season.

Moreover, fans won’t have to wait long as the series will be released in Fall 2023. Though for those who can’t wait, the trailer shows off some new footage that you can watch here:

Unlike the first season though, Season 2 will have a standard 1-cour length as it will feature 12 episodes. This means Season 2 will likely end in December.

The Eminence in Shadow Season 2 will be released beginning in October 2023, with the second season also set to stream on HIDIVE, much like the first season.
