Wistoria: Wand and Sword has been greenlit for season 2.

The official Twitter account for the fantasy anime announced the new season alongside a poster and a 13-second announcement teaser, both of which can be viewed below. The news comes just one day after the season finale aired on Crunchyroll.

The series, based on the manga of the same name by Fujino Omori and Toshi Aoi, follows a boy named Will (Kohei Amasaki) who is struggling at Regarden Magical Academy due to the fact that he doesn’t possess any magical skill or ability. Instead, Will is a skilled swordsman –though he keeps this ability hidden from his peers – and uses his blade to take down enemies and save the world.
