‘The Eminence in Shadow’ Season 2 Will Premiere in October, According to New Promo

‘The Eminence in Shadow’ gives the classic isekai genre a modern spin with its protagonist Cid, who seeks a different end than the usual hero. Cid’s goal in this new globe isn’t defense, but rather the construction of an empire.

One of the main reasons the anime series was a big smash is because of Cid, who defies the standards of the isekai genre with his unwavering determination to slaughtering his rivals in the most brutal and violent manner possible, and Cid is not stopping as he is back for more mayhem.

One of the best anime shows of 2022, “The Eminence In Shadow”, is finally coming back for a second season. The premiere date in October, a new trailer, plot specifics, and the brilliant team and cast engaged have all been announced in recent updates for the upcoming season.

The Eminence in Shadow

In 2018, Daisuke Aizawa’s manga The Eminence in Shadow began publishing. In October of 2022, an anime adaptation is planned.

The protagonist, Cid, is fixated on developing his skills as a secret mastermind. Being reborn in an isekai world allows him to carry out his desires and amass power without drawing attention to himself.

After saving an elf, he joins a team to battle the Diabolos cult, which turns out to be nothing more than a fabrication of his own mind. But the cult proves to be real, and now he has a real enemy to fight.
