The anime adaptation Tensei shitara Ken Deshita (engl. Reincarnated as a Sword) is getting a second season, scheduled for release in 2026. The series is based on the light novel series by Yuu Tanaka, which has been published by Micro Magazine since 2016.
A first visual concept image shows the protagonists Fran, a cat-eared warrior, and her companion – a reincarnated sword named "Master." The depiction hints at their journey to floating islands, a central plot element of the upcoming episodes.
The animation studio C2C continues its work on the series. The core team from the first season also remains, though details regarding direction and design have not yet been officially confirmed.
The story follows a former human who reawakens in a fantasy world as an intelligent weapon. As "Master," he allies with the lonely beastkin huntress Fran. Together, they face adventures in a world that separates humanoid and monstrous races. The first season adapted the initial volumes of the source material in 2022.
