The second season of the anime adaptation of Ishura presents a new key visual, showcasing the protagonist Gyakuri no Hiroto amidst a dramatic landscape.
The 18th episode, set to air on February 12, 2025, focuses on Gilnes, the captured "Destroyer of Fortresses," who is supported by the followers of the old kingdom. After his defeat, he is given the chance to face the celebrated hero Absolute Rossclair in a duel. However, Gilnes uses the time before the battle to advance a secret plan that could influence the fate of the kingdom.
The new visual highlights the dark yet detailed design of the series, which centers on both close combat and strategic intrigue. The animation, produced by Passione (Higurashi no Naku Koro ni), remains faithful to the epic atmosphere of the source material.
Background: A Universe Full of Conflict
Ishura, based on the light novel by Keiso, tells the story of a world where the strongest warriors—the "Shura"—battle for supremacy. The first season, which aired in 2024, established the series as a visually and narratively ambitious project.
