Summoned to Another World for a Second Time

Summoned to Another World for a Second Time is a fantasy comedy adventure that aired during spring 2023 with a complete run of twelve episodes. The series follows a former hero who once saved another world but was trapped and forced back to his original reality, only to be reborn as a human and grow up as an ordinary high school student. When he's mysteriously summoned back to that same world a second time, he discovers that his second chance comes with unexpected advantages and comedic situations.

The story plays with isekai tropes by giving its protagonist prior knowledge and experience of the world he returns to, which creates a different dynamic than typical summoned-to-another-world narratives. This twist provides plenty of room for humor as the gloomy high schooler navigates his familiar-yet-changed surroundings with a perspective most heroes never get. The twelve-episode season delivers a complete story arc, making it ideal for viewers who want a finished series they can watch through without waiting for additional seasons.
