Saga of Tanya the Evil II is airing its second season, which premiered on July 8 on AT-X and other channels. Crunchyroll began streaming an English dub on the same day it announced it, with Monica Rial returning as Tanya and episode reviews running through episode 9.
The second season of Saga of Tanya the Evil premiered on July 8 on AT-X and other channels, with Kadokawa confirming the date and the theme song artists in June. MYTH&ROID returned for the opening theme and Aoi Yuki performs the ending. Takayuki Yamamoto directs at studio NUT, replacing Yutaka Uemura, and a new mini-anime follows each episode. The season was first announced in 2021.
As the broadcast ran through the summer, Anime News Network's episode reviews traced a single arc. Episode 5 put the Eastern front at its worst, with both the Empire and the Russy Federation led by the inept, Loria pursuing personal goals over victory, and competent officers like Zettour removed. Zettour becomes a scapegoat and plans to use Tanya's forces as bait, though both are undermanned and targeted by Mary's squad and Loria's machinations. Episode 6 was called the most emotionally invested of the series, centered on Zettour's role as a decoy and his impending death, with Tanya trying to save him. Episode 7 argued Tanya lacks not empathy but normal emotional processing, and that the war has broken the government and people beyond repair, making her goal of a safe life unreachable. Episode 9 turned to Idola, a neutral country whose poor neutrality leaves it unprepared for war and a likely target for the Empire.
Crunchyroll announced an English dub for the season and began streaming it the same day. Monica Rial returns as Tanya, with Jason Douglas, J. Michael Tatum, Jeannie Tirado, and others in the cast. A Kujibikido online lottery ran from August 6 to August 27, 2026 at 770 yen per draw, with prizes including an MA-1 style jacket, a stainless steel mug, an acrylic stand figure, acrylic keychains, and can badges featuring newly drawn Tanya Degurechaff art.
