The production of the second season of the action anime Gachiakuta is progressing, and now the first official visual material is available. The so-called "First Look PV" was released on July 29, 2026, on the official channels and offers a taste of the new episodes.
The video shows several previously unreleased scenes from the second season. These include shots of Enjin emitting a cloud of smoke, the mysterious Fū, as well as threatening moments with the "Rioters" Zodil, Kutōni, and Jabā. Amo is also seen in an emotional scene with tears, and Rudo prepares for battle on a car roof.
As early as early July 2026, the PV was shown exclusively at Anime Expo in Los Angeles before being presented later at the 25th Taipei International Comics & Animation Festival in Taiwan. Accompanying the events, two exclusive illustrations were released: Enjin eating Chinese dumplings (Jiaozi), Zanka enjoying a hot dog – both in casual clothes with embroidered jackets. The drawings were distributed as postcards to visitors.
The first season of Gachiakuta aired from July to December 2025 over two consecutive cours (24 episodes) on Japanese television and streaming platforms. The anime was received positively worldwide and won awards at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards 2026 in the categories "Best New Series," "Best Character Design," and "Best Background Art." The underlying manga series by Kei Urana and Hideyoshi Andou (Graffiti Design) has been published since 2022 in Weekly Shonen Magazine by Kodansha and received the Kodansha Manga Award in the Shonen category in 2026.
In addition to the second season, further adaptations are in the works: A stage adaptation as well as a survival action RPG with the working title Gachiakuta The Game have already been announced. A specific air date for the second season is still pending; those in charge ask for patience for further announcements.
