The official website for the Mato Seihei no Slave (Chained Soldier) television anime series announced on Saturday that a second season is in production. The website also revealed a visual featuring the character Ren Yamashiro to commemorate the announcement.

The first season produced by Seven Arcs aired in 12 episodes during Winter 2024. Sentai Filmworks licensed the anime and simulcast it on HIDIVE.

The anime adapts Takahiro and Youhei Takemura's action fantasy manga which began serialization on Shounen Jump+ web magazine in January 2019. Shueisha published the 15th volume on February 2.

Yen Press licensed the manga in English on December 21. The sixth volume released on January 23, with the seventh volume scheduled to ship on April 16.

Synopsis
After his high school graduation, Yuuki Wakura realizes it has been five years since his sister's disappearance during a "Mato disaster." Throughout Japan, mysterious entrances have opened to a dimension called "Mato"—a demonic metropolis filled with disastrous monsters known as the "Shuuki" that threaten the safety of humans. However, a new hope arose, as the discovery of a Mato fruit that grants supernatural abilities exclusively to women allowed them to fight against the Shuuki. Due to this, a new matriarchal government was formed, establishing a female organization called the Anti-Demon Corps, which caused men to fall to the bottom of society.

When Yuuki suddenly finds himself in Mato, he is unable to escape on his own. But just as he anticipates a gruesome end by the Shuuki, a girl in a militia outfit appears and protects him. As the chief of the Seventh Unit of the Anti-Demon Corps, Kyouka Uzen is ambitious yet devalued by her own peers due to her power being deemed unusual. Now in a life-or-death situation, Kyouka takes the opportunity to find out the true potential of her superpower by using Yuuki: in order to defeat the Shuuki, he has to become her slave.
