The second season of the anime television series "Sasaki and Peeps" (Japanese title: "Sasaki to Pii-chan") will air in October 2026. This was announced by the manufacturer Kadokawa on Monday. At the same time, a new key visual and a teaser trailer were released.
The visual shows the neighbor known as "Otonari-san" together with the protagonist Sasaki and the talking bird Peeps, while the hand of the demon Abaddon approaches from behind. The trailer includes a scene where the neighbor blushes – a hint at the romantic and comedic elements of the series.
With the second season, there are also changes in the production team. The new director is Yuushi Ibe (previously assistant director for the first season), while Yamato Ouchi serves as assistant director. The series composition is once again handled by Deko Akao. Character design is in the hands of Saori Nakashiki, who also acts as chief animation director, supported by Yuki Sawairi. Animation continues to be produced by Studio SILVER LINK. Other key positions: Action Supervisor Kazunori Ozawa, Camera Direction Yuko Shintani, Art Director Yuki Shinjo, 3D Director Tsutomu Ogasawara, Color Design Shiho Mizumoto, and Sound Director Nobuyuki Abe.
The voice cast remains unchanged: Tomokazu Sugita voices Sasaki, Aoi Yuki voices the bird Peeps. Other roles include Akari Kito as the neighbor, Rie Takahashi as Hoshizaki, Naomi Ozora as Futari, Miyu Tomita as Elsa, Inori Minase as Magical Pink, Ryotaro Okiayu as Akutsu, Hiroki Yasumoto as Viscount Mueller, and Mutsumi Tamura as Abaddon.
The first season of the series aired from January to March 2024 and consisted of 12 episodes. A second season was already announced at AnimeJapan in March 2024. The story is based on the light novel series by Buncololi with illustrations by Kantoku, which has been published under the imprint MF Bunko J (Kadokawa) since January 2021 and has grown to 13 volumes by March 2026. Originally, the story started as a web novel on the platforms Kakuyomu and Shousetsuka ni Narou in December 2018. A manga adaptation by Pureji Osho has been published in the magazine Shonen Ace Plus since 2021.
The second season is expected to be available on various streaming services, including Prime Video and Crunchyroll. An exact start date within October 2026 has not yet been determined.
