We can expect a Summer 2026 Crunchyroll lineup by the end of the month, which will mention all the release dates and streaming times of the upcoming series. In the meantime, Crunchyroll confirmed the Anime Nights will commence on June 15th, and Clevatess Season 2 will have an early screening in the United States and Canada. Skeleton Knight in Another World Season 2 and Young Ladies Don’t Play Fighting Games will also get their early screenings on the same day. The anime will be featured in Japanese with English subtitles, and tickets are already available for sale on the official website.

What Is Clevatess About?

This action fantasy is based on the manga written and illustrated by Yuji Iwahara, which began serialization in 2020 in the LINE manga platform. This action-packed series will reel you in from the very first episode thanks to the unique worldbuilding and stellar animation. The story centers around a powerful demon lord named Clevatess, who leaves a trail of death and destruction behind him after being challenged by a group of 13 human heroes. However, after being faced with a challenge he couldn’t overcome, Clevatess revives one of the heroes, Alicia Glenfall.

He sought Alicia’s help in raising an infant named Luna, whose choices are destined to shape the fate of the human world. Clevatess hides himself by taking a human form and sets out to search for a wet nurse. While he struggles to raise the baby, major trouble is brewing in the neighboring countries, which will soon pose a major threat to the group. The anime continues after the unlikely alliance between the demon lord and a resurrected hero, as they navigate the challenges of childcare. The story is intense at times, with heartwarming moments thrown into the mix to keep fans intrigued.

The second season is expected to bring in more challenges for the main characters as they face new threats along the way. While the first season aired 12 episodes, the sequel has yet to share its episode schedule. However, we can expect the second season to follow the same format and release around 12-13 episodes during the summer season. The release date will be revealed a few days before the premiere, but we can expect the anime to drop in the first week of July.
