Arthur Alfie Clarke Harrison • 2026-10-13 • Reviewed by Ethan Collins

Few anime treat the 2 a.m. mood as something romantic, but Call of the Night (Yofukashi no Uta) builds an entire vampire love story on insomnia. The manga by Kotoyama ran from 2019 to 2024, and the anime already has two seasons on the board: Season 1 arrived in 2022, and Season 2 premiered on July 4, 2025, according to TV Guide’s episode guide.

Is Call of the Night season 3 confirmed?

No. No official Season 3 announcement has been published, and the current official listings stop at Season 2. What is confirmed is a second season: it premiered on July 4, 2025, and its 12-episode run is tracked in TV Guide’s episode guide.

Bottom line: Season 2 is confirmed and distributed; Season 3 is not. New viewers can start the 25 episodes now, and fans waiting for a third season should watch official distributor announcements for the greenlight.

Is there a season 2 Call of the Night?

  • Yes — Season 2 premiered on July 4, 2025, with 12 episodes listed.
  • The season is tracked in the same TV Guide entry that documents the episode-by-episode schedule.

Is the Call of the Night manga finished?

  • Yes — the manga ended in 2024 after a 2019-2024 serialization.
  • The finished manga gives the anime a complete story if more episodes are ordered.

The implication: Season 2 is a real, finished season, not a rumor. The only open question is whether the production side greenlights more episodes — and no official answer exists yet.

The upshot

Season 2 is a completed, distributed season. The unconfirmed part is Season 3, so treat any claim that a third season is locked as premature until a distributor or the production committee says otherwise.

The pattern: Season 2 is the current active season, and the manga’s completion removes any source-material barrier for a future Season 3.

How many episodes of Call of the Night are there?

Call of the Night has 25 released or listed episodes across two seasons, based on the documented counts: Season 1 ran 13 episodes from July 8 to September 30, 2022, covered in Wikipedia’s episode list, and Season 2 has 12 episodes, premiering July 4, 2025, with its finale listed for September 19, 2025, in TV Guide’s episode guide.

  • Season 1: 13 episodes (July 8 – September 30, 2022).
  • Season 2: 12 episodes (July 4 – September 19, 2025, as listed).
  • Two-season total: 25 episodes.

The pattern: the episode count is stable at 25 until a third season gets ordered — and with the manga finished, the next order would have plenty of story to draw from.

Where can I watch Call of the Night?

In the United States, the documented home for Season 2 is HiDive, with HiDive’s Amazon Channel as a second subscription route; JustWatch’s streaming listings show both options. Plex’s series page points to the same two routes.

Is Call of the Night on Crunchyroll?

  • No — the documented Season 2 listings place the series on HiDive, not Crunchyroll.
  • Crunchyroll exclusivity does not apply to Call of the Night in the documented US listings.
  • As for what is only on Crunchyroll, the answer shifts by title and season; Call of the Night is not one of them in the documented US listings.
  • Regional catalogs can differ, so the answer outside the US depends on local licensing.

The catch: streaming rights are regional. A US answer won’t match every market, so check the local catalog before picking a service.

The catch

Streaming catalogs are regional. A US viewer sees HiDive for Season 2; a viewer in another market may see a different arrangement, so confirm the local option before committing to a subscription.

The implication: US viewers have a clear option in HiDive, but international viewers should verify local listings before subscribing.

What is the name of the detective in Call of the Night?

The detective in Call of the Night is Anko Uguisu, presented in the series’ episode and platform descriptions as a vampire-hunting detective. TV Guide’s episode guide names her as a key Season 2 presence, and Plex’s synopsis describes her as pursuing a plan to kill vampires.

  • Name: Anko Uguisu (also written Uguisu Anko in surname-first order).
  • Role: a vampire-hunting detective with a plan to kill vampires.
  • Season 2 arc: her investigation puts the vampires’ secret under real pressure.

Why this matters: Anko is the rare human threat in a vampire show, and her hunt keeps Season 2 from staying a pure hangout comedy.

Why this matters

Anko raises the stakes: once a vampire-hunting detective is actively closing in, the cozy midnight routine can’t last — that pressure is what Season 2 uses to move the story forward.

What this means: Anko Uguisu shifts the series from pure romance into a threat-driven narrative, giving Season 2 its central conflict.

What is Call of the Night about?

Call of the Night is a romantic comedy manga by Kotoyama, adapted into an anime series. The official synopsis frames the premise plainly: a bored teenager meets a vampire and decides he wants to become one too — but first, he’ll need to fall in love. That teenager is Ko Yamori, a 14-year-old insomniac skipping school and wandering the streets at night.

What is the Japanese title of Call of the Night?

  • Yofukashi no Uta — the Japanese title used in official Japanese listings.
  • Call of the Night is the localized English title.

Who are the main characters in Call of the Night?

  • Ko Yamori (14) — the sleepless protagonist who wants to become a vampire.
  • Nazuna Nanakusa — the vampire Ko meets; the catch is he has to fall in love with her first.
  • Anko Uguisu — the vampire-hunting detective who complicates their routine.

The trade-off: the premise sounds like simple wish fulfillment, but the show’s real draw is the late-night mood and the slow push-and-pull between Ko and Nazuna.

Call of the Night timeline

The dates below follow the same documentation used across this guide — Wikipedia’s episode list and Anime News Network’s encyclopedia — plus TV Guide’s episode guide for the Season 2 dates.

  • 2019-2024: Manga serialization runs.
  • July 8 – September 30, 2022: Season 1 of the anime airs (13 episodes).
  • 2024: Manga serialization ends, completing the source material.
  • July 4, 2025: Season 2 premieres as a 12-episode season.
  • September 19, 2025: Season 2’s finale is listed.
  • Unconfirmed: Season 3 — no official announcement yet.

The implication: the production timeline has clear bookends, with the manga wrapping before Season 2 aired, removing any delay risk for future seasons.

What’s confirmed and what’s still unclear

Confirmed facts

  • Season 1 aired from July 8 to September 30, 2022, with 13 episodes (Wikipedia’s episode list).
  • Season 2 premiered July 4, 2025, with 12 episodes (TV Guide’s episode guide, Anime News Network).
  • The detective is Anko Uguisu, a vampire-hunting detective (TV Guide, Plex).
  • The manga ran from 2019 to 2024, so the anime has a complete source story (Wikipedia’s episode list).

What’s unclear

  • Season 3 — no official confirmation or announcement exists.
  • Global streaming catalog — documented US listings point to HiDive, but other regions aren’t uniformly documented.
  • Season 2 broadcast details beyond TV Guide’s listings — limited documentation is available.
  • The regional reach of Netflix and Fuji TV listings — not consistently documented.
  • The eventual total episode count if more seasons are ordered — unknown.
Bottom line: Call of the Night has two documented seasons and a finished manga; the only missing piece is an official Season 3 announcement. New viewers can safely start the 25 episodes now, and returning fans should follow the official distributor channels for the greenlight.

The catch: the confirmed facts give viewers a solid foundation, while the unclear items are mostly about timing and regional availability rather than fundamental unknowns.

What the official pages and reviews say

While wandering the streets at night, a bored teenager meets a vampire and decides he wants to become one too — but first, he’ll need to fall in love.

— Netflix official synopsis

Ko Yamori (14) is currently skipping school, as well as suffering sleepless nights.

— Fuji TV official series page

Where Call of the Night stands now

Call of the Night is in a comfortable but unresolved spot: two seasons exist, the manga is finished, and official silence surrounds Season 3. New viewers have an easy entry point — 25 episodes, a clear US streaming home on HiDive, and a detective named Anko Uguisu to track in the background. For anime fans deciding when to jump in, the choice is clear: catch up on the episodes that exist now, or wait for the official Season 3 word — and because the manga is already complete, the next season’s material is sitting ready whenever the production side gives the greenlight.
