My Next Life as a Villainess has confirmed the release date for Season 2 with a new trailer! It might have been a rough time for anime releases this time last year due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, but the anime that did manage to make it to air during this tumultuous period stood out from among the pack anyway. One of the biggest hits of the Spring 2020 anime season despite all of the issues going on was the debut of My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom!
It was so successful, in fact, that a second season was confirmed to be in the works right after the first season ended. While originally only committing to a Summer 2021 release window upon its initial announcements and promotional materials, My Next Life as a Villainess Season 2 will be making is premiere on July 2nd in Japan. Check out the newest trailer in the video above!
