If you’re as hooked on Wistoria: Wand and Sword as I am, the news of Season 2 probably had you jumping for joy. The first season left us with epic battles, a lovable underdog in Will Serfort, and just enough mysteries to keep us guessing. So, what’s next for this magical, sword-swinging adventure? Let’s dive into everything we know about Wistoria: Wand and Sword Season 2—from when it might drop to what Will’s up against next.
Wistoria Season 2 Is Happening!
Right after the Season 1 finale aired on September 29, 2024, the folks behind Wistoria dropped a bombshell: Season 2 is officially in the works! They shared the news on the anime’s X account (@Wistoria_PR) with a short 13-second teaser and a gorgeous visual by manga artist Toshi Aoi. Fans went wild, and it’s no wonder—Season 1 scored a solid 7.93 on MyAnimeList and a near-perfect 4.8/5 on Crunchyroll. But while we’re all hyped, the announcement didn’t spill too many details. No release date or episode count yet, just the promise of more magic and mayhem.
When Can We Expect Wistoria Season 2?
So, when will we get to see Will back in action? No official date has been confirmed, but let’s break it down. The first season, which ran from July to September 2024, adapted about 20 chapters of the manga. With 48 chapters out as of late 2024, there’s enough story for another season, but studios like to play it safe and wait for more material to avoid running dry. Some fans are betting on a mid-2025 release, maybe around summer, since that’s a hot slot for anime premieres. Others think late 2025 or even 2026 is more likely, given production timelines. My gut says we’re looking at Fall 2025, but keep your eyes on the official site (wistoria-anime.com) for updates.
What’s the Story for Wistoria Season 2?
If you haven’t caught up, Wistoria: Wand and Sword follows Will Serfort, a guy with zero magic in a world obsessed with spells. He’s at Regarden Magical Academy, chasing his dream to become a Magia Vander and keep a promise to his childhood friend, Elfaria, a magical genius. Season 1 showed Will slicing through challenges (literally) with his trusty sword, facing off against dungeon beasts and cocky mages. That All-Student Praxis arc? Pure adrenaline.
Season 2 will likely kick off around chapter 20 of the manga, diving into the Graduation Finals Arc. Expect Will to face tougher tests as he inches closer to his goal. The teaser visual hints at new faces like Finn, that cryptic explorer we glimpsed in the finale, and those creepy Mysterious Mages (Headless and Marze). There’s also buzz about the Terminalia, a big-deal event where the Magia Vanders rebuild a barrier to keep evil forces at bay. Plus, that shadowy “evil organization” from Season 1 is bound to stir up trouble. Will’s sword, which can absorb magic, will probably get some wild new tricks, and I’m dying to see how his bond with Elfaria evolves.
