Though I Am an Inept Villainess anime revealed an epilogue visual featuring the main characters Kou Reirin and Shu Keigetsu. A second cour has been confirmed to premiere in January 2027.
The plot synopsis for the upcoming cour is as follows:
Through Reirin and Keigetsu’s actions, the series of disturbances caused by a curse in the inner court has settled down. Through their swap, Reirin and Keigetsu learned about each other’s character, and a friendship began to bud between them.
Seasons pass, and we are now in early autumn. The ritual where the Crown Prince and the Maidens wish for a bountiful harvest (the Harvest Festival) has been set in the southern lands ruled by the Shu clan. With no consort as guardian, Keigetsu continues preparations despite the pressure of hosting the Harvest Festival. Meanwhile, Reirin wholeheartedly supports Keigetsu while being thrilled about her first royal outing.
However, right upon arrival, an unforeseen accident occurs, and the ritual is interrupted. An agitated Keigetsu’s spell runs out of control, and she once again swaps bodies with Reirin. On top of that, amid all the confusion, the post-swap Reirin is abducted…!?
Reirin’s two overprotective brothers, Kou Keikou and Kou Keishou, get involved, and the situation takes an unexpected turn. Who is the new mastermind sneaking in to frame Keigetsu…? The gratifying tale of switched fates brought to you by two girls who are opposites—the curtain rises on the second act, “The First Royal Outing” Arc!
Mitsue Yamazaki is directing the anime at studio Doga Kobo. Yoshiko Nakamura is in charge of the series composition while Ai Kikuchi is illustrating character designs. Manaka Iwami voices Kou Reirin and Natsumi Kawaida plays the role of Shu Keigetsu.
The anime is based on a light novel series by Satsuki Nakamura. It was first published online on the Shosetsuka ni Naro website in July 2020. Ichijinsha released the print edition featuring illustrations by YukiKana in December 2020. Around the same time, a manga adaptation illustrated by Ei Ohitsuji began serialization in Monthly Comic Zero Sum.
