The official website for the upcoming new Magic Knight Rayearth TV Anime has been launched!

We also learned that the new project will air on Asahi TV channel in 2026, although no specific date has been given.

With this announcement, we also have a second key visual, the first one where we can see the three girls from upfront.

I am really happy with Hikaru and Fuu’s designs, they look close to the manga (including Hikaru’s hair color, as we had seen already in the first key visual), but I’m not sure about Umi’s face…

It seems the “old” logo is back. I wasn’t sure if they would keep the same iconic logo or if they would do a brand new one (it would have been a bad idea, in my opinion). So it’s great that the old logo is back, even if it has some minor changes. Also, I loved the fact that in this new key visual they are replicating CLAMP’s “whiteout” technique to make it more “glossy/shiny”. It definitely makes you think about the manga and I wonder if this will be applied to the actual anime as well (not sure if it might work).

I was also expecting to have some information about the staff but alas, not this time!

And we now know for a fact that the new project is indeed a TV anime, as it strongly suggested.
