Why You Need to Watch Reincarnated as a Sword

Reincarnated as a Sword goes in the same vein as other Isekai hits where the main protagonist reincarnates into another world not as a human being, but instead as an object. Finding himself as a sword, he masters all kinds of new abilities and techniques that only he can use. When finding a young orphan named Fran, the two of them unite together and Fran becomes a powerful adventurer. It’s a fun series where the two of them bond, and it’s only going to be getting more impressive in the second season.

Reincarnated as a Sword Season 2 teases the Sky Island arc coming in the new episodes as Fran and Master need to deal with some tough monsters in a dangerous new region. Meeting the mysterious Jean Du Vix, the two of them enter a new dungeon with undead threats lurking within. If the new episodes are as hard hitting as last time, it’s going to be a big deal when it premieres. Catch up with it all on HIDIVE in the meantime.
