Part 2 of NieR Automata Ver1.1a Will Also Appear on Crunchyroll

Part 2 of the NieR Automata Ver1.1a anime will start airing on Crunchyroll from July 5, 2024. This is the same starting date as Japan.

You can watch the trailer for it here. However, it’s the same as Promotion File 11, which Aniplex released earlier in 2024:

A-1 Pictures first announced the second cour in late May 2024. The trailer teases some of the battles that the YoRHa androids will undergo, as well as shows part of the Red Girls’ more sinister true personality. As a reminder, LiSA will be singing “Black Box,” the opening of NieR Automata Ver1.1a part 2. In the past, LiSA contributed opening or ending songs for anime like Fate/Zero, and Demon Slayer. Though it was only for the Japanese dub, she also sang the theme song for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

NieR Automata Ver1.1a is an animated adaptation of the award-wining NieR Automata video game. However, rather than a straight adaptation, it features some characters from the stage play as well. The main voice actors have reprised their roles and like the game, it features music from MONACA.

The anime adaptation of NieR Automata Ver1.1a is readily available for streaming on Crunchyroll and part 2 will start airing from July 5, 2024.
