Sentenced to Be a Hero Episode 2 New Release Date

Sentenced to Be a Hero premiered with a 1-hour-long special episode on January 3, 2026. As the anime has been listed for 12 episodes and follows a weekly release schedule, everyone anticipated the next episode of Sentenced to Be a Hero on January 10, 2026. However, it is now confirmed that Sentenced to Be a Hero episode 2 won’t be premiering on 10th January on Crunchyroll. Crunchyroll has revealed that new episodes of Sentenced to Be a Hero will be released every Thursday instead of Saturdays. Therefore, Sentenced to Be a Hero Episode 2 is now slated to be released on January 15, 2026, at 5:30 AM PT (or 8:30 AM ET). We don’t know the exact reason why Crunchyroll and Studio KAI decided to switch the release of Sentenced to Be a Hero at the moment. Nevertheless, Thursdays are going to be the best days of the week for the next three months as new episodes of Sentenced to Be a Hero will premiere on the same day as Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3. I was instantly hooked on this anime after watching the incredible premiere recently, like many of you. Though it is disappointing to see that we have to wait a little longer than usual for the second episode, hopefully it will be worth the wait next Thursday. That said, drop your predictions for the next episode of Sentenced to be a Hero in the comments below. Name Email ID
