A teaser trailer has been released for Call of the Night Season 2. It starts off focusing on lead characters Ko and Nazuna — particularly, Ko’s predicament of needing to fall in love with Nazuna to become a vampire — before changing the mood with scenes of vampire Kiku Hoshimi and anti-vampire private detective Anko Uguisu (plus Anko’s feet).
Beyond the teaser trailer, it was revealed that the anime sequel will begin airing in July, and that Rina Sato is the voice of Kiku. A key visual was released as well.

Call of the Night Season 2 was announced in March 2024. Season 1 premiered in July 2022. The anime is based on the manga by Kotoyama that began in Shogakukan’s Weekly Shonen Sunday in 2019 and released its 20th and final tankoubon volume in March 2024. Viz describes the story as:
One sleepless night, Ko slips out to walk the streets. Life after dark is a revelation! When flirtatious Nazuna invites Ko to spend the night at her place in an abandoned building, he’s stoked! But then he awakens to kisses on his neck with a little too much bite to them… Is it just the delicious taste of his blood that makes her meet him night after night for late-night adventures, conversation and…naps? Or something else? Then, when a cute girl from Ko’s past shows up and competes for his attention, his budding relationship with the undead is put to the test!
Update: Added Kiku’s voice actor.
