About the Series
The first season of Skeleton Knight in Another World premiered in April 2022 and followed Arc, a gamer who awakens in a fantasy world trapped inside the skeletal body of his in-game avatar. Armed with powerful gear but cursed with an intimidating appearance, Arc embarks on a journey filled with magic, conflict, and unexpected alliances.
The original light novel series by Ennki Hakari debuted online in 2014 before being published by Overlap, with an ongoing manga adaptation illustrated by Akira Sawano.
With returning talent, new creative additions, and a summer release window locked in, Season 2 is shaping up to be a major return for the isekai fantasy series.
