The official website for the anime adaptation of 'Skeleton Knight in Another World' (original title: Gaikotsu Kishi-sama, Tadaima Isekai e Odekakechuu) has released a new main trailer and an updated key visual for the second season. The clip centers on the two beastman-like characters Chiyome and Sasuke.
Chiyome, who travels through the world alongside protagonist Arc, is searching for her missing foster brother Sasuke. The key visual shows the two in the rain, back to back, emphasizing the emotional depth of their relationship. The trailer includes numerous new scenes that set the stage for the events of the second season.
At the same time, three additional voice cast members have been announced. Mitsuo Iwata lends his voice to the seventh cardinal of the mysterious organization Hilk – the childlike, playful but gluttonous Charros. In a comment, Iwata hinted that a dark side lurks behind the harmless facade: 'Rumor has it he's something like the final boss.' Kento Hama takes on the role of Ein, the leader of the tiger humanoids, and Hiroshi Naka voices Hanzou, the 22nd head of the Jinshin clan, to which Chiyome also belongs.
The series is based on the light novel series by Ennki Hakari (illustrations: KeG), which has now sold over 3.5 million copies. A manga adaptation by Akira Sawano is also being released in parallel. The first anime season aired in 2022. For the second season, director Katsumi Ono is once again at the helm, with the series concept by Toshizo Nemoto. Character designer is Toru Imanishi, and the animation is produced by Aura Studio. The opening theme is contributed by PelleK, and the ending theme by the group DIALOGUE+.
The regular broadcast begins on July 6, 2026, on AT-X, TOKYO MX, and BS11. An early premiere and streaming start will take place on July 4 on AT-X, dAnime Store, and ABEMA. On the same day, ABEMA will air a live show starting at 7:00 PM featuring the main voice actors Tomoaki Maeno (Arc), Fairouz Ai (Arianne), Nene Hieda (Ponta), and Miyu Tomita (Chiyome). The first episode will follow immediately after at 8:30 PM.
In the first episode, Arc and his companions continue their journey to the legendary source of curses in the Wind Dragon Mountains. When they reach a village, the residents flee in horror from them. What this is all about will be revealed in the plot of the second season.
