Skeleton Knight in Another World is heading back to Crunchyroll, with season 2 finally set to continue Arc’s isekai adventure this summer, and the first episode in its release schedule is fast approaching.

Season 2 will see Arc continue his journey alongside elven warrior Ariane, beast ninja Chiyome and spirit creature Ponta, as the group heads toward the Wind Dragon Mountains in search of a spring said to be able to lift a curse.

Skeleton Knight in Another World season 2 will premiere on Crunchyroll from Saturday 4 July 2026.

Crunchyroll has confirmed that it will stream the new season as part of its summer 2026 anime line-up, with the subtitled version currently listed for 4 July and the exact release time still marked as TBA.

The anime’s official Japanese schedule also lists a special early broadcast and streaming premiere for episode 1 on Saturday 4 July, before the season begins its regular TV broadcast in Japan on AT-X from Monday 6 July.

The expected Skeleton Knight in Another World season 2 release schedule is as follows:

However, the full episode count has not yet been confirmed by Crunchyroll, though we expect the whole second season to run for 12 episodes — as that was the count for season 1.

Whichever way, anime release schedules can sometimes shift due to breaks, delays or programming changes, so we’ll update this page if any of the above dates change.

Skeleton Knight in Another World follows Arc, a gamer who wakes up in a fantasy world in the form of the heavily armoured skeleton knight character he used in an MMORPG.

Although Arc decides to keep a low profile and live as a mercenary, he’s still not the kind of person who can ignore people in trouble. Before long, his strength and sense of justice pull him into one incident after another.

Season 2 continues Arc’s journey with Ariane, Chiyome and Ponta, as they travel towards the Wind Dragon Mountains in search of the “spring that lifts curses”.

Skeleton Knight in Another World season 2 will stream on Crunchyroll from Saturday 4 July 2026.
