The King of Magical Beasts is ready to reclaim his throne this summer. On Tuesday, April 28, the official website for the animated adaptation of Clevatess (Clevatess: The King of Magical Beasts, the Baby, and the Corpse Hero) shook the networks by revealing a new official trailer and a spectacular promotional image for its highly anticipated Season 2. The announcement not only confirmed more additions to the voice cast but also ignited anticipation by revealing that the iconic music group MYTH & ROID will perform the ending theme titled “Awake Anew,” setting the stage for its imminent July premiere.

The voices of dark fantasy

Bringing to life a world plagued by monsters and moral dilemmas requires imposing vocal talent. The trailer confirmed that the main cast will reprise their roles from the first season (aired in summer 2025), while welcoming new faces that will expand the conflict. Here are the key seiyuus for this sequel:

• Yuichi Nakamura returning as the imposing Clevatess.

Satoru Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen and Hawks in My Hero Academia.

• Haruka Shiraishi returning as Alicia.

Asirpa in Golden Kamuy and Fumino Furuhashi in We Never Learn: BOKUBEN.

• Misaki Kuno joining as Sarasa.

Hawk in The Seven Deadly Sins and Klee in the popular game Genshin Impact.

• Kotaro Nishiyama joining as Edison.

Kazuhito Narita in Haikyuu!! and Ryuichi Kashima in School Babysitters.

The team that masters the magical beasts

Maintaining the brutal and detailed aesthetic created by mangaka Yuji Iwahara (world-renowned for character design in the legendary Darker than Black and creator of Dimension W) is a monumental task that once again falls on the shoulders of Studio Lay-duce. Kiyotaka Taguchi returns as director, accompanied by the dark scripts of Keigo Koyanagi and the immersive soundtrack of Nobuaki Nobusawa. To handle the massive animation load of this sequel, Natsuko Kondou has joined the project as sub-character designer.

What awaits the lord of beasts and the human baby?

This second season will continue directly from the electrifying 2025 finale. The story is set in a world on the brink of collapse, where Clevatess, a fearsome lord of magical beasts who once threatened to annihilate the entire human race, is forced to change his destructive plans after becoming entangled with a fragile human baby and a mysterious corpse hero.

What began as a lethal curiosity has evolved into a brutal journey of discovery. In this new installment, we will see how the shifting alliances between dark creatures and human survivors fracture further. With emerging factions and new characters like Sarasa and Edison entering the game, Clevatess and his peculiar companions will have to decide whether to become saviors of a broken world or its ultimate executioners.
