Le Collège Noir Season 2 gets a Halloween premiere date

Toei Animation Europe has confirmed that Le Collège Noir will return for a second season on October 31, 2026, giving the French supernatural series a Halloween premiere date.¹

What we know

Created by Ulysse Malassagne and produced by Studio La Cachette in co-production with Toei Animation, the series follows five teenagers at a remote boarding school in the Cantal region as they encounter strange supernatural events.¹ Season 2 is expected to continue its blend of mystery, adventure, horror and dark humour, with the new announcement promising deeper mysteries and expanded character arcs.¹

The season will be available through ADN in France and RTS in Switzerland. Peppermint Anime has also licensed it for German-speaking territories, including Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, German-speaking Switzerland and South Tyrol in Italy.¹

An official trailer for Le Collège Noir is available from Studio La Cachette, the series’ production studio, and gives a useful taste of its eerie folklore-inspired atmosphere.²

Our opinion

A Halloween launch is an unusually neat fit for a show built around rural mysteries and supernatural threats. The announcement is light on plot specifics, but the mix of a clear date, confirmed regional platforms and a distinctive creative identity makes Season 2 one to watch for anime fans who prefer atmospheric European animation to another franchise sequel.¹
