As of April 2026, there is no official announcement confirming Release That Witch Season 2. The donghua adaptation premiered on Crunchyroll on March 2, 2026, following a November 2025 reveal, with Season 1 scheduled for eight episodes. Animated by Studio Thundray and based on Er Mu’s web novel, the series follows Prince Roland as he harnesses witches’ powers to revolutionize Border Town.
While fan enthusiasm remains strong, production challenges impacted the first season. Originally planned for 12 episodes, budget constraints reportedly reduced the order to eight. Industry observers note that financial hurdles affecting Season 1 have not been publicly resolved, making a renewal uncertain despite the show’s dedicated international audience on Crunchyroll.
The story’s source material offers abundant content for future seasons, with hundreds of novel chapters covering Roland’s industrial revolution, political intrigue, and supernatural conflicts. However, adaptation rights, funding, and studio scheduling remain key variables. No cast, crew, or storyline updates for Season 2 have been shared by Crunchyroll, Thundray, or the original IP holders.
For now, fans seeking continuation are encouraged to explore the original web novel, which provides extensive narrative beyond the anime’s opening arc. Should Netflix, Crunchyroll, or a Chinese streaming platform greenlight a second season, announcements would likely arrive via official social channels or major anime conventions.
Until then, Release That Witch Season 2 remains unconfirmed. The door isn’t closed—but it hasn’t opened either. Stay tuned to Crunchyroll and the Release That Witch Wiki for verified updates.
