KADOKAWAanime announced on November 14 that Gushing Over Magical Girls Season 2 will air in 2027. Magia Baiser reveals the release window in the announcement video, while the anime website has also published a new promotional visual. A month and premiere date have not been announced.
The series follows Utena Hiiragi, who admires the magical girls protecting her city. When the mascot Venalita offers her transformation powers, she thinks she will finally stand alongside her heroes. Instead, she becomes Magia Baiser, a member of the villainous organization Enormita.
Utena consequently finds herself fighting the Tres Magia team she once hoped to join. The contrast between her original wish and her new role drives the comedy. Despite its magical-girl imagery, the series is intended for mature audiences rather than children.
Fuka Izumi returns as Utena and Magia Baiser, with Aoi Koga as Kiwi Araga and Leopard, and Shiori Sugiura as Korisu Morino and Nero Alice. The official website has also published cast messages about returning for the new season.
The Tres Magia cast includes Kaori Maeda as Haruka Hanabishi and Magia Magenta, Mayuko Kazama as Sayo Minakami and Magia Azure, and Misaki Ikeda as Kaoruko Tenkawa and Magia Sulfur. Yuka Aisaka and Minami Tsuda are also listed as Loco Musica and Leberblume.
Masato Suzuki and Atsushi Otsuki co-direct at Asahi Production, with series composition by Noboru Kimura and character designs by Yasuka Otaki. These key production roles carry over from the first season.
The anime adapts Akihiro Ononaka’s manga published by Takeshobo. Its thirteen-episode first season began airing in Japan in January 2024.
