My Next Life as a Villainess Movie Announced!

Key points for My Next Life as a Villaines Movie news:
- So, the My Next Life as a Villainess movie is dropping on December 8th. Check out the trailer for new cast members and the theme song by Angela and Shouta Aoi here.
- I’m psyched about the movie being a sequel to Season 2, directed by Keisuke Inoue at Silver Link. If you haven’t caught up with the series yet, now’s the time!
- Personally, I’m really looking forward to the movie. Hoping it brings back the charm of Season 1— that perfect mix of silly fun with occasional serious moments. Season 2 felt a bit “off,” so fingers crossed for a return to the good stuff.
Man, the initial announcement of this movie apparently slipped through my radar. But no worries, we are here now. We recently got more substantial info on the movie anyway so it is fine. But yes, My Next Life as a Villainess, or Hamefura for short in Japanese is indeed getting a new anime movie.
My love for the series is pretty well-known I believe, well at least should be if you’ve been reading for a while now. Yes, Season 2 wasn’t nearly as good as Season 1 but that doesn’t change that this series overall is really entertaining. So obviously, I hope that the movie manages to deliver a better premise than Season 2.
More on all that later though. Let’s cover the news first. So welcome back to another news article. Today we are talking about My Next Life as a Villainess Movie. So let’s get started.
What do we know about the My Next Life as a Villainess Movie?
The official website of the movie unveiled a bunch of new cast & staff members, a release date, and the first trailer for the movie. First things first, the movie is scheduled to release in Japan on December 8th. The global release date is going to differ, as usual. Keisuke Inoue will be returning to direct the movie at Silver Link studio, once again. The new cast includes Kensho Ono, Reina Ueda, Rie Kugiyama, Ayumu Murase, Akari Itou, and Youko Hikasa.
Angela and Shouta Aoi are performing the theme song for the movie “Hare nochi Hallelujah” which is previewed in the trailer. Speaking of the trailer, you can check it out here. And yes, the movie will serve as a sequel to Season 2, so I suggest catching up with the series if you are interested in it.
That covers all the news for now. So let’s move on to
What do I think?
Well, the Fall 2023 season keeps on getting bigger and bigger, doesn’t it? Another thing to look forward to in this season. So what do I expect from this movie? I don’t know. I have no clue where the plot will go from this point on. But I do wish that they manage to somehow bring back the charm of Season 1. Season 1 was stupid and fun with some serious moments here and there. Season 2 felt overly serious at times, that is it felt “off”. That is the only thing I want from this movie if they manage to make that happen, I’ll be really happy.
That is all for now
So yeah, let me know what you guys think in the comments. I am pretty excited about the My Next Life as a Villainess movie, to be honest. With that said though, I will take my leave here. See ya!
Also, a 2nd season of The World’s Finest Assassin was recently announced. Check out the details here!
