posted on by Alex Mateo
The official website for the television anime of Asato Asato's 86 light novel series began streaming the first promotional video for the anime's second television season.
Yen Press is publishing the light novel series in English, and it describes the story:
The San Magnolia Republic has long been under attack by unmanned weapons from the neighboring Empire. Against this onslaught, the Republic has also deployed similar weapons, narrowly avoiding great loss of life and impending disaster-or at least that's how it seemed.The truth is that it has never been possible to have no casualties. Young men and women drawn from the Republic's supposedly non-existent 86th district are organized into the "86 unit" and then ordered to pilot the "unmanned weapons" before heading to battle.
The second cours will premiere in October.
The television anime premiered on April 10. The anime will air for two cours (quarters of the year). However, the two cours will be split, and will not air one after another. Crunchyroll is streaming the series as it airs in Japan, and it is also streaming an English dub.
