Key Visual, Trailer and Release Date: Reborn as a Vending Machine Second Season
The quirky and hilarious "Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon" anime is returning for its second season, and fans have plenty to look forward to! Season 2 will premiere on July 2, 2025, bringing back Boxxo’s unique adventures in a fantasy world. The announcement was accompanied by a new key visual, a preview of the energetic opening theme song, and exciting additions to the voice cast – all crucial details for fans and anime enjoyers alike.
Based on the original light novel series by Hirukuma and illustrated by Itsuwa Kato, “Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon” tells the story of Boxxo, an ordinary man who tragically dies in a traffic accident only to find himself reborn…as a vending machine! Unable to move or speak beyond pre-programmed phrases, he must navigate the dangers and challenges of a fantasy world dungeon.
The sequel was announced shortly after the first season concluded in September 2023 and will once again be animated by the talented teams at Gokumi & AXsiZ. Director Takashi Yamamoto (known for his work on "Tsuredure Children") is leading the charge, with series composition penned by Tatsuya Takahashi ("The Faraway Paladin"). Character designs are handled by Takahiro Sakai ("Stardust Telepath") and Naoki Yamauchi.
The light novel series began online on Shosetsuka ni Naro in 2016 before being picked up by Kadokawa Shoten and published with illustrations by Itsuwa Kato. A manga adaptation by Kunieda started serialization in August 2021, with both the light novel and manga licensed in English by Yen Press.
With an unique premise, returning animation studios, new voice talent, an upbeat opening theme, and continued support across multiple formats, the series promises to be an even more entertaining experience for fans of comedic isekai! Mark your calendars – this unusual adventure returns next summer.
