In/Spectre season two is a much-awaited installment in the anime series after a successful season one last year.
Season one showed that the series is not a simple shonen series about magic and monsters but also a story about love and romance.
With the second season of the series confirmed, I’m excited to see Kotoko and Kuro’s relationship progress from their combat duo status. The second season has a lot to offer with interesting new characters and a new antagonist coming into play.

2. Key Visual
Two key visuals for In/Spectre season two anime have been released.
The first key visual shows Kotoko Iwanaga in a wedding dress with a joyful expression. Kuro in a black-tie holding Kotoko in his arms looks like a zombie with those dead eyes.
A second visual reveals both the protagonists with serious expressions. They are surrounded by various types of yokai along with books flying in the air.
Two trailers have been released for the upcoming anime second season.
A memorable first trailer gives a recap of the events that happened in the first season. The trailer goes on to indicate how Kotoko and Kuro’s relationship gets deeper as they keep solving mysteries.
The second trailer shows some pretty cool moments between Kotoko and Kuro. The suspense background music gives the vibe of what mystery is to unfold as the yokai request them for help.
