Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End Season 2’s release date hasn’t been confirmed, but it will debut in January 2026 as part of the Winter 2026 anime lineup. The first season ends after Fern becomes a First-Class Mage, which is a major requirement to travel to the Northern Plateau. The second season is expected to cover Continued Northern Travels, Divine Revolte, as well as the Golden Land Arcs from the manga. With the Frieren manga returning for Chapter 141 on July 23rd (July 22nd in the United States), this allows the series to continue to lay the groundwork for future installments of the anime. However, we will have to see just exactly how often new chapters will release henceforth.

The journey towards Aureole, a place where the souls of the dead reside, continues as Frieren meets new people and forms new bonds along the way. The series will be available to stream on Crunchyroll, where you can catch up with the first season, which was released in two cours from September 2023 to March 2024. All chapters of the manga are available to read for free on Viz Media’s Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End portal, where you can also buy physical and digital copies of the volumes.
