The supernatural action series Yomi no Tsugai (Daemons of the Shadow Realm) is officially returning for a second season. The announcement arrived via the series' official website, accompanied by a new promotional video and a key visual that teases the continuation of the story following the conclusion of the show's initial 24-episode run.
Studio Bones, which handled the animation for the first season that premiered in Spring 2026, is confirmed to return for the sequel. The first season was distributed internationally through Crunchyroll, which provided both subtitled and dubbed versions for viewers. The original manga, penned by Hiromu Arakawa, has maintained strong momentum since its 2021 debut in Shounen Gangan, currently boasting over 4 million copies in circulation across its 13 published volumes.
While the production of the new season is underway, specific details regarding the release window or returning staff members remain unconfirmed. With the manga's 12th English volume scheduled for release in January 2027, the gap between the source material and the anime's narrative progression remains a point of interest for followers of the series. Given the studio's history with Arakawa's works, how closely will this second season follow the pacing of the latest manga chapters?
