The Yotsuba clan are about to air their dirty laundry in cinemas, and honestly? It’s been a long time coming.
A fresh trailer just landed for The Irregular at Magic High School: Yotsuba Succession Arc, with a theatrical release locked in for 8 May 2026. The second key visual shows Tatsuya and Katsushige squaring off under the tagline Faith and conviction intertwined.
Translation: someone’s about to have a very bad New Year.
What We Know
Jimmy Stone directs at Studio 8-Bit, with Taku Iwasaki on score duties. The source material? Tsutomu Sato’s light novel series, which has shifted over 25 million copies.

Catch-Up Material
Saori Hayami narrates a Three Minutes recap series. The Entry Arc and Nine School Competition Arc recaps are live now; the Yokohama Riots Arc drops today, 14 February.
The Stakes
2096. The Yotsuba family’s New Year gathering—Keishukai—will decide the next leader. Tatsuya and Miyuki’s fates hang in the balance, and some uncomfortable family truths are about to surface.
So here’s what I’m wondering: when a family this powerful starts choosing sides, do you think anyone walks away clean—or is that just not how these stories end?
