No date announced yet. This announcement comes as the first season finale aired today. Additional information in the ANN article. First season synopsis from AniList:

The qualities valued most in the study of magic are bloodline, aptitude, and effort. There was one sorcerer who, despite his deep love for magic, was born a commoner and thus lacked the bloodline and aptitude for it. As he died an unnatural death, he wished he had studied magic more while he had the chance. Then, he was reincarnated as Lloyd, the seventh prince of the Kingdom of Saloum and one blessed with a strong magical bloodline. Reborn with all his memories intact, along with the perfect bloodline and immense talent, he was determined to enjoy his new life, using his extraordinary magical abilities to master the study of magic that was beyond his reach in his previous life!

As somebody that read a good portion of the manga and then dropped it, I actually have enjoyed this show more than I thought I would going into it. The visual style (the manga's greatest strength) has been adapted well and the studio has delivered on some fantastic action sequences through the first season.

One thing I am wary of is that it is not too long after the Jade arc (the story arc that is wrapping up the first season) that I dropped the manga. The story just became jumbled and I had a hard time following things, so I just dropped it. I will be curious to see if they do any condensing or streamlining of the story in the anime adaptation.

I was pretty surprised how much i liked this one. It's pretty funny, and the magic visual effects were pretty cool.

The animation and rest of the show is really good, but yeah the fuckin shota shit is really hard to get past
