Studio C2C has revealed more about the upcoming Reincarnated as a Sword (Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita) Season 2. Yes, we have a premiere date for one of the few unique takes on the tried-and-true isekai genre. I mean, how many other isekai series do you see where someone reincarnates as a physical object? Except the vending machine one, or the hot spring one. Well, this one has an Excalibur-level magical sword that turns a catgirl slave into a legendary warrior. Please insert “she handles his hilt” jokes here.

Reincarnated as a Sword News, Cast, Staff
Teacher and Fran return to battle on October 7th, 2026. Studio C2C will animate the anime adaptation, with Shinji Ishihira overseeing the project as director, Takahiro Nagano as writer, Atsuko Saito designing the characters, and Yasuharu Takanashi providing the adventurous anime music.
The hard-as-steel isekai protagonist and two of his friends are as follows:
- Teacher — Shinichiro Miki (James / Kojiro from Pokémon).
- Fran — Ai Kakuma (Chino from Naruto Shippuden).
- Jean Du Vix — Yuma Uchida (Megumi Fushiguro from Jujutsu Kaisen).
Reincarnated as a Sword has an official website and Twitter (X) accounts where you can find more information about the series and the key visuals.
Reincarnated as a Sword to Protect the Cute Catgirl!
For readers and watchers keeping track at home, Season 2 will start at light novel volume 3 and manga chapter 29. It’s a fun read because a cute girl wields the power of an isekai protagonist without herself being an isekai protagonist. A sentient magic sword teams up with a slave catgirl to fight evil — it’s great!
I hope we see something like the Demon Weapons from Soul Eater, where people can switch between weapons and people. Let Teacher stretch his legs and remember his own name. The waifu quality is pretty high, as we can see in the new PV. Fran is definitely cute, but I’m not exactly kicking the evil zombie girl out of bed, either. I bet even the main villain of the series is a looker. Can’t wait to see her.
A Closer Look at Reincarnated as a Sword

Fran, the cat-eared girl, becomes his wielder, and wants only to grow stronger, while the sword wants to know why he is here. Together, the strange duo’s journey has only just begun!
