This is going to be another year for anime fans around the world, thanks to the return of shows that went on hiatus for several years. This list includes “The Irregular at Magic High School” season 2 that was announced last fall.

However, fans should expect some production changes as they anticipate the show’s return. “The Irregular at Magic High School” season 2 will no longer be produced by Madhouse and it is anticipated to have fewer episodes than the first season.

'The Irregular at Magic High School' season 2 episode count

One clear indication of “The Irregular at Magic High School” season 2 having fewer episodes is the confirmation that it will only cover the Visitor Arc. The official episode count has yet to be announced. However, in comparing this three-volume storyline to what season 1 covered, it is not difficult to deduce that season 2 is planned to have a shorter run.

The reason behind it could be the fact that the show was not on the small screen since 2014. “The Irregular at Magic High School” season 2 is practically a soft opening for the anime’s return. But with many light novel source materials yet to be adapted into anime, the show is more likely slated to have more installments.

Since “The Irregular at Magic High School” season 2 is already seemingly planned for a one-cour run, it makes more sense for the producers to have a season finale may be in the 12th or 13th episode. In the event that the producers see the worth in continuing the anime adaptation beyond the Visitor Arc, it would possibly be released as the third season.

“The Irregular at Magic High School” season 2 is now being produced by Eight Bit. The studio is not a stranger to the series because it was the producer of the franchise’s movie “The Girl Who Calls the Stars” released in 2017.

The movie had an original story that featured the character of Angelina Kudou Shields. But thanks to “The Irregular at Magic High School” season 2 covering the Visitor Arc, Lina will have the more proper introduction in the canon anime series. Season 2 is confirmed to premiere sometime this year.
