Synopsis

*Clevatess Season 2* continues the story in its second installment, returning to the action-driven fantasy world established in the first season.

Otaku Consensus

Clevatess Season 2 is tracking as a well-regarded but still niche fantasy follow-up, with a 7.68 MAL score from 2,862 votes and a 75/100 AniList score suggesting steady approval rather than breakout hype. Its strongest asset is the production’s clear genre focus: Kiyotaka Taguchi’s direction and Keigo Koyanagi’s series composition keep the medieval-magic action centered on a small lead pair instead of diluting it into broad ensemble sprawl. The main criticism is reach and novelty: with MAL popularity at #3206, it has not yet become a larger community talking point, and its familiar fantasy ingredients may read as disciplined rather than surprising.

Why You Should Watch

Watch Clevatess Season 2 if you want medieval fantasy that stays closer to action, magic, and creature-driven tension than to cozy guild comedy or parody isekai. Its AniList profile points hard toward Medieval and Magic at 79% each, while Politics and School sit at only 20%, so the appeal is not bureaucratic worldbuilding or academy routine but a sharper fantasy-adventure lane. The compact 13-episode format and two main-billed leads make it a better fit for viewers who like focused character pressure rather than sprawling party management. It scratches some of the same itch as Claymore’s monster-human unease and Grancrest Senki’s war-fantasy texture, but with Lay-duce handling a leaner, more contained TV production built around Clevatess and Alicia.

Key Characters

C
Clevatess(VA: Yuuichi Nakamura)
Clevatess is the title character and the series’ monster-boy axis, a role that gives Yuuichi Nakamura room to project authority without turning the character into a standard heroic lead.
A
Alicia Glenfall(VA: Haruka Shiraishi)
Alicia Glenfall carries the female-protagonist side of the season, and her presence gives the fantasy action a grounded human counterweight to Clevatess’s more mythic pull.

What Makes It Stand Out

1
Lay-duce is the credited studio, placing the season in the hands of a single named production house rather than a committee-obscured studio listing; that makes the visual identity easier to track across the 13-episode run.
2
The creative spine is clearly defined: Kiyotaka Taguchi directs, Keigo Koyanagi handles series composition, and Souichirou Sako leads character design, with Natsuko Kondou specifically credited for sub character design.
3
AniList’s tag balance is unusually revealing: Medieval and Magic both sit at 79%, while Politics and School are only 20%, signaling a fantasy identity built more around setting and supernatural conflict than institutional drama.
4
The database information highlights only two main characters, Clevatess and Alicia Glenfall, which frames the season less as a large-party fantasy and more as a tightly focused lead dynamic.
5
The production credits separate CG direction, photography, editing, color design, and art direction across Naoki Tsuji, Shigeki Asakawa, Gou Sadamatsu, Reiko Iwasawa, and Atsushi Morikawa, indicating a conventional but fully staffed TV animation pipeline for its action-fantasy demands.

Fun Facts & Trivia

Fun fact 1: The full Japanese title, Clevatess II: Majuu no Ou to Itsuwari no Yuusha Denshou, explicitly marks it as a second installment with the “II” branding rather than only using a subtitle-based sequel title.
Fun fact 2: Yuuji Iwahara is credited as the original creator, keeping the anime visibly tied to a named creator rather than presenting it as an anonymous franchise continuation.
Fun fact 3: The season began airing on July 8, 2026 and is listed for 13 episodes, placing it in the compact one-cour TV-anime format.
Fun fact 4: Its current reception is modest in scale but positive in score: MAL lists it at 7.68/10 with 2,862 votes, while AniList records 75/100 and 352 favourites.
Fun fact 5: Otaku Den-style genre classification lists Action and Fantasy with no formal Theme category, while AniList adds more granular flavor tags such as Female Protagonist, Monster Boy, Tomboy, Politics, and School.
