The anime's second season will debut in 2025.

The main cast is returning, but Kunihisa Sugishima (Beyblade franchise, Strike Witches original video anime) is replacing Nobukage Kimura as the director, and the studio Teddy is animating the new season instead of Revoroot. Naohiro Fukushima, an episode scriptwriter in the first season, is supervising the new season's series scripts instead of Tatsuya Takahashi. Hikaru Kodama replaces Keisuke Goto as the character designer. Keiji Inai is returning to compose the music at Nippon Columbia.

The first season premiered in April 2021. Crunchyroll streamed the season as it aired in Japan, and it then streamed an English dub for the anime.

Crunchyroll describes the anime:

An at-home comedy about a powerful girl who doesn't work too hard!(⋈◍ ˃ᴗ˂ ◍)。✧♡ After dying of overwork in the real world, I'm reincarnated as an immortal witch, and I spend 300 years enjoying a relaxing life. At some point, though, I end up at level 99! All those years spent killing slimes to make the money to pay the bills gave me a ton of experience points… Rumors of the level 99 witch spread, and soon I'm up to my ears in curious adventurers, duelist dragons, and even a monster girl calling me her mom! “This isn't a dojo, so don't come here to fight me…!” I've never been on an adventure, but I'm the strongest in the world… What's going to happen to my relaxing life?!
