The second season for In/Spectre will premiere this October as part of the Fall 2022 anime season.
Announced last year, In/Spectre follows the adventures of elf-proclaimed “Goddess of Wisdom” Kotoko Iwanaga, and university student Kuro Sakuragawa. The latter gained powers of immortality and precognition after consuming the flesh of yokai. The pair’s adventures have them run afoul of spiritual entities and monsters creating havoc in the real world.
Underlying the two’s relationship is a one-sided love that Kotoko held for Kuro after encountering him years earlier. Though the pair have grown closer after their shared adventures and circumstances.
