Demon Lord, Retry! R episode 2 will be released on Saturday, October 5, 2024, at 11 pm JST for streaming online on ABEMA. Following this, the episode will be aired on Tokyo MX a week later, with other networks to follow.
In the first episode, viewers were shown how Akira found himself reincarnated in his own gameworld as the Demon Lord Hakuto Kunai. However, this episode mainly served as a recap and introduced the stylistic changes brought by Studio Gekko, which has taken over the project. Unfortunately, these changes have not been received well by fans.

Demon Lord, Retry! R episode 1 recap
The first episode of the season begins in 2016, with Akira on the verge of shutting down the server for his popular Infinity Game. However, he suddenly finds himself transported into the gameworld, now reincarnated as the final boss, Demon Lord Hukato Kunai.
The story then shifts back to 2007, where Akira is staying at his friend XX's place. It is revealed that he has invested his inheritance into Infinity Game, his passion project. Despite this, he is contemplating selling the game to 42-OMG, whose chief director, Mikkity, has made him a lucrative offer and assured him that they would scale up the game.
Ultimately, Akira decides against selling his game, preferring to develop it independently. He has to take up a job at a random gaming company, where he works on various projects that he is not particularly passionate about. During this time, Infinity Game's popularity declines, with fewer players engaging with it due to the rise of social media.
At this point, Akira receives another offer from Mikkity. At the same time, an explosion occurs at his office, and a monster with three heads is seen at the site.
The episode then returns to Akira's journey within Infinity Game, much like the opening episode of the first season. It shows his battle with Greole, his acquaintance with Aku, and the acquisition of his ring.
Finally, the episode returns to the present where Kunai is seen dreaming.
What to expect from Demon Lord, Retry! R episode 2 (speculative)?
Given that the series has returned to the present timeline at the end of the previous episode, it is expected that Demon Lord Hakuto Kunai will resume his quest to fill the gauge in his ring and discover what the outcome will be. Before that, viewers can likely expect a conversation between him and Luna in Demon Lord, Retry! R episode 2. Moreover, there will likely be more insights about what it was that drew Akira into the gameworld.
Unfortunately, specific details about the upcoming episode have not been released yet.
