8. Mairimashita! Iruma-kun 3rd Season
Only one year after the release of the 2nd season of Mairimashita! Iruma-kun, the 3rd season is scheduled to air in October 2022.
The protagonist of this series is a 14-year-old human boy who gets adopted by a demon and later enrolls at the Babyls School for Demons. Since such a place is dangerous for humans, he has to do everything in his power to hide his human identity!
7. Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute!
Another anime that will air in October 2022.
In this show, great heroes and diabolical villains are the types of characters that people long to be—but not Cid Kagenou. He longs to become the true mastermind behind it all, pulling the strings, and having his machinations drive the entire story. In his previous life in modern-day Japan, he was not able to achieve his goals. But now, reborn into a world of magic, he will show the true eminence of shadow!
As Cid pretends to be just another average mob character, he recruits members to his (fake) organization Shadow Garden, aiming to take down the mysterious cult that lurks in the shadows. With plenty of ad-libs, Cid leads his (fake) organization against the foul (yet surprisingly real) Diabolos Cult.
