Deregula Swings Big with 'Dark Summoner' TV Anime, But Don't Expect It Until 2026
Shaoh's popular "Dark Summoner to Dekiteiru" web manga is getting an anime, but fans must brace for a long wait: Fall 2026. WWWaveCorporation's Deregula animation label is producing this full TV adaptation. Deregula is primarily known for short-form and often adult-oriented series, making this a notable departure for the studio.
Rei Takano, Yuuki Nishiyama, and Houdentei Senmai join the cast. Seiya Miyajima (Umayon) is set to direct and handle series composition and scripts. This supernatural romance's distant premiere suggests a patient and perhaps more ambitious production from a studio shifting its focus.

Catzye Take
A 2026 premiere is quite far off for any anime announcement. This long lead time, especially from a studio like Deregula expanding into full TV series, makes you wonder what their production strategy entails. Fans will want to watch closely for further updates, as this could signal a more ambitious project than we've come to expect from them.
