The track is written, composed, and arranged by R・O・N, who has teamed up with Mayu Maeshima on numerous works in the past. It is a song about finding the resolve to accept one's destiny and move forward despite hesitation, and Maeshima's powerful vocals convey a strong message of living on with pride even when battered and worn. A portion of the song can be heard in the newly released anime PV.
<Comment from Mayu Maeshima>
"I'm Mayu Maeshima, and I'll be singing the opening theme!
The long-awaited Season 2 is here! I'm truly happy to once again perform the OP theme, just as I did for Season 1!
'Foreshadow' is like a cheering song — it captures the will to resist the vast forces that try to control the world and ourselves, and gives you the strength needed to hold on to that resolve.
I'd be happy if it could support Alicia and the others as they grow and take action, and all of you who listen.
Let's enjoy Season 2 together!"
"Clevatess II: The Beast King and the False Hero Legend" is the second season of the TV anime based on the manga by Yuji Iwahara serialized on "LINE Manga." The hero Alicia has slain General Drel, bringing the war between Heiden and Borate to an end. At the three-nation conference involving Eslin, the point of contention becomes the "secret room" left behind by Drel. Envoys from each nation flock to the Borate theological school of Solcein over its existence — and among them is Clen, who has become Luna's personal magic tutor.
The series is directed by Kiyotaka Taguchi, with series composition by Keigo Koyanagi and animation production by Lay-duce. The cast includes Haruka Shiraishi as Alicia, Mutsumi Tamura as Clen, and Yuichi Nakamura as Clevatess.
Broadcasting begins July 8, 2026, on TOKYO MX, AT-X, and 27 stations nationwide, with the earliest and fastest streaming on d Anime Store, U-NEXT, and Anime Hodai ahead of terrestrial broadcast.
