The anime adaptation of Yōsuke Kaneda's manga is airing its second cour, with a new opening theme and a cast addition for the second half.
The anime adaptation of Yōsuke Kaneda's manga The Classroom of a Black Cat and a Witch began airing in 2026. The first episode drew criticism from Anime Feminist, which reviewed the premiere and found it uncomfortable. The review cited frequent upskirting, a friend who sexually harasses the lead, and a scene where Spica offers her body in exchange for magic. The reviewer said the comedy relies on sexual stunners instead of the weird magic that could make the show distinct. A late sequence where Spica proves herself did not salvage the episode.
The series continued into a second cour. On Monday, a third promotional video was released, announcing Akari Nanawo's new opening theme "∞Rettō-Sei" for the second half. Comedian Attack Nishimoto joined the cast as Ursa Minor, a Virgo Magic student appearing in episode 13. The new video and song confirm the series will continue its half-year run with fresh material.
