Premieres January 2025. The PV is here. I haven't found an English language source yet, but here is the Natalie article. This announcement comes as the season 1 finale just aired today. Season 1 synopsis from AniList:

"My wish as champion is for you to descend the tower and be my wife."

Climbing a deadly tower, Oscar seeks the power of its master, the Witch of the Azure Moon. He hopes her incredible magic can break a curse that will kill any woman he takes for a wife. When the prince sees how beautiful Tinasha is, though, he has a better idea-since she's surely strong enough to survive his curse, she should just marry him instead! Tinasha isn't keen on the idea, but agrees to live with Oscar in the royal castle for a year while researching the spell placed on the prince. The witch's pretty face hides several lifetimes of dark secrets, however-secrets that begin resurfacing...

Whyyy though. Why does this get a new season immediately but way better anime don't?

I thought of you when I saw this announcement and was curious what your thoughts were going to be based on what you have written in the episode threads. Out of curiosity, I checked out what reddit was saying and, to summarize, it's not good.

Haha, not how I thought people were going to think of me. But yeah, it's not good. Efforts are getting wasted into a 2nd season. I'd be lying if I said that I'm not a little curious about how they're gonna try to recover though (assuming they are at least trying)

I'd laugh if S2 becomes a genuine masterpiece. Reverse Promised Neverland.

Kind of surprised by this one. I don't think anyone was terribly impressed with the first season.
