In this episode, we’ll cover the popular Magical Girl Raising Project franchise, which is scheduled to return with a new sequel titled Restart in the fall of 2026. This upcoming anime production reunites several key staff members from the original 2016 series, including the director, character designer, and series composer. While the first season was handled by Lerche, the new project will be managed by the animation studio SynergySP. The storyline continues the franchise's tradition of blending magical girl aesthetics with a dark, high-stakes survival game orchestrated by a ruthless administrator. Fans can currently stream the previous episodes on Crunchyroll to prepare for the new season's mix of vibrant visuals and intense conflict. This announcement marks a significant comeback for the series after a decade-long hiatus from television.
