Himuro, a descendant of a snow spirit, has ice powers that flare up whenever his emotions run high. Despite this, he’s your typical Japanese office worker—except for his deep crush on his co-worker Fuyutsuki. She seems aloof and cool, but secretly, she harbors feelings for him too. As the two grow closer, other supernatural co-workers approach Himuro for help with their relationship troubles. Can he offer advice while advancing his own love story? A Supernatural Romance in the Office Volume 2 of this office romcom offers ten new chapters and three bonus stories. The story builds on Volume 1, with more moments showing the couple growing closer. Like before, most chapters follow a familiar pattern: Himuro faces a problem—often related to his snow-spirit abilities clashing with the typical office life—and Fuyutsuki finds a creative solution to help him. This brings them even closer as he falls deeper for her, while she discovers more about his charming qualities. Their relationship sees some development, but it’s subtle. The slow-burn romance continues, which might frustrate readers hoping for quicker progress. The pair remain adorable, and their eventual union feels inevitable, but your patience for slow-burn romance will be tested. Whether you love this trope or not, it’s a central part of the series’ charm. Introducing New Supernatural Characters The volume doesn’t solely focus on Himuro and Fuyutsuki. Two new supernatural characters are introduced, adding more life to the office environment. We meet Komori, a female descendant of a fox spirit, and her male co-worker Saejima. Unlike Himuro and Fuyutsuki, these two have more outgoing personalities, which adds a fresh dynamic to the story. Komori’s fox-like powers, including the appearance of tails and ears when she’s relaxed, often embarrass her. However, she isn’t afraid to call others out in the office. Saejima, though blunt, has a soft side, especially when he goes out of his way to collect figurines for Komori. The pairing of Komori and Saejima provides a new dynamic for readers to enjoy. However, I found Komori’s fox abilities less exciting compared to Himuro’s ice powers. Himuro’s abilities are creatively tied to his emotions and Japan’s weather, making Komori’s simple animal features feel less innovative by comparison. The Phoenix Co-worker Another new character, Katori, enters the story. He’s supposedly a descendant of a phoenix, though the manga playfully adds a question mark after “descendant,” hinting he may actually be the phoenix himself. Katori and his female co-worker don’t get much time in this volume, but his potential as a character is intriguing. His mood swings—shifting from despair to optimism after a pep talk from Himuro—add humor. His fire-based powers, being the opposite of Himuro’s ice abilities, suggest exciting possibilities for future interactions. Katori’s backstory as Himuro’s childhood friend adds depth to their relationship. It raises questions about the world of the manga: Are all descendants of magical beings connected? Do they all work in ‘spirit-friendly’ environments? These are ideas the story could explore in future volumes. Stunning Artwork and Translation The manga’s art remains stunning. Fuyutsuki’s hair is beautifully detailed, and close-ups of her face highlight why Himuro is so captivated by her. The artist excels at bringing out the characters’ emotions with visual depth. Julie Goniwich continues to handle the translation, but I was disappointed to find no translation notes in this volume. One chapter mentions “Golden Week,” and it would’ve been helpful to explain it for readers unfamiliar with Japanese culture. Similarly, the theme park the characters visit in the final chapter seems based on Tokyo Disneyland, with references to character meet-and-greets and advanced planning. It would’ve been nice to get confirmation of these connections. Conclusion The Ice Guy and The Cool Girl Volume 2 delivers another charming, slow-burn romance between Himuro and Fuyutsuki. While the pace may frustrate those wanting faster romantic development, the humor and introduction of new characters keep the story engaging. The artwork continues to shine, making this an enjoyable volume for fans of supernatural office romance.

In Volume 1 of The World After the Fall, Jaehwan learned that the Tower of Nightmare was merely a replica of the real tower, which stands atop the Tree of Illusion. This false tower sits at the tree’s roots, and Jaehwan has no desire to start again, despite the Dream Demon’s suggestion to do so. His goal is clear: to break through the tree and reach the top. After leaving the tower, he finds himself in the trunk of the tree, ready to push forward. Meeting Mino: The Witch of Destruction At the tree’s trunk, Jaehwan encounters Mino, the witch of destruction, who guides him through Chaos—a realm where the dead dwell. Although the people there seem human to one another, Jaehwan sees their true forms. His experience in the Tower of Nightmare gave him the ability to perceive the world’s deeper reality. Jaehwan’s power comes from his skepticism, which helped him break free from the limits imposed by the tower. Though he cannot share his ultimate mission, his presence might help others see the truth as well. A Mysterious New World Mino is puzzled by Jaehwan. His spirit is unlike anything she’s seen before, seemingly immune to corruption. In Chaos, the souls of the dead must constantly medicate themselves to avoid turning into fiends—monsters driven by corruption. Jaehwan, as a living human, doesn’t face this challenge, but he keeps this fact hidden. He recognizes the truth about these inhabitants: they are skeletons in disguise. Confusion in Chaos The World After the Fall Volume 2 begins with many new details that aren’t fully explained, leading to some confusion. In Chaos, there are fortresses and sects, though their purposes remain unclear. These sects aren’t on good terms with one another. Mino belongs to one, but it’s too soon to know whether she’ll become Jaehwan’s ally or enemy. Another new character, Captain Carlton Xavier, enforces order in his fortress. Jaehwan seems to hope Xavier will become a comrade, but as with Mino, it’s too early to tell where his loyalties lie. Power Levels and Fighting Scenes One element that remains vague is the concept of power levels. The strength of people in Chaos is linked to how much they have “adapted,” though what adaptation entails is not yet clear. We’ll likely learn more about this in future volumes. For now, what’s evident is that greater adaptation brings more power. Compared to Volume 1, this volume features shorter and faster-paced fight scenes. Jaehwan easily overcomes numerous enemies, as they are no match for him. The action is intense but not overly graphic, as Jaehwan primarily battles monsters and dead humans, leading to little bloodshed. This differs from Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, another series by the same author, which is much more explicit in its portrayal of violence. However, the monsters Jaehwan faces in The World After the Fall are hideous and bear the brunt of his ferocity. Conclusion The World After the Fall, written by singNsong, illustrated by Undead Gamja, and adapted by S-Cyan, continues its gripping narrative in Volume 2. You can read the digital comic on Webtoon or find the English print version published by Ize Press.

In The World After the Fall, after Jaehwan’s spirit breaks through the replica of the Tower of Nightmare, he finds himself in Chaos, located at the trunk of the Tree of Illusions. To reach the top of the tree where the real Tower of Nightmare lies, Jaehwan must climb it. However, first, he needs to tackle the chaos brewing in Gorgon Fortress. Jaehwan uses his skills, particularly his ability to copy Doctor Cheongheo’s Fiend Slash, to combat soul corruption in Chaos. This skill draws the attention of Gorgon Fortress’s leaders. The fortress’s lord faces imminent danger, and only Jaehwan can prevent his transformation into a fiend. If the spirit doesn’t receive regular purification, it will corrupt and become a monster. However, not everyone appreciates Jaehwan’s powers; some view the lord’s corruption as part of a sinister plan to seize control of Gorgon Fortress. Jaehwan’s only option involves fighting the traitors and stopping the lord, but doing so means he must kill him. Unfortunately, a Sovereign has taken over the lord’s body, making purification impossible. Thankfully, just before vanishing, the lord regains consciousness and bestows upon Jaehwan the power to rule Gorgon Fortress, appointing him as the new lord. Indifferent to his new title, Jaehwan declares that anyone who can defeat him in combat can claim the title of lord. If they lose, they must join the new Abyss Expedition that Jaehwan organizes. This expedition aims to gather revival fruits, which can revive souls. Although the inhabitants of Chaos previously participated in this quest, their last attempt resulted in despair, as those higher in the Tree of Illusions exploited them. The heads of the sects in Chaos see this as an opportunity and begin to challenge Jaehwan—only to lose time and again. To recruit more soul power, Jaehwan starts a tournament where the grand prize is the title of fortress lord. The game has officially begun. Clarifying Chaos and Its Inhabitants Volumes 3 and 4 offer much-needed clarity about Chaos and its residents compared to Volume 2. Earlier, terms like “sect,” “fortress,” and “adapted” appeared without explanation. Now, we learn that the souls of those who died in the Great Realm inhabit Chaos, which resides on the branches of the Tree of Illusions. Chaos consists of four fortresses, where inhabitants form sects that compete for dominance. The ten sects are ranked by power, and their leaders wield less authority than the four lords governing Chaos’s fortresses. These leaders aim to gain control of the fortresses. Additionally, some souls possess unique powers, with their power levels linked to how well they adapt to Chaos. Among them are Cheongeo and Jaehwan, who have awakened and defied the world’s limits. As the story unfolds, readers piece together information that characters mention, sometimes in passing. The more the narrative progresses, the clearer the world becomes, though many mysteries remain. Questions about the sovereigns and monarchs linger, and readers ponder why higher-ups in the Tree of Illusion pursue Jaehwan. Nevertheless, this series continues to deliver exhilarating action, promising more battles ahead. Visual Appeal and Printing Issues The covers of The World After the Fall showcase simple yet striking illustrations of Jaehwan, with spot UV highlights on the title and certain design elements. Volume 4’s cover maintains this aesthetic, although my copy suffers from misaligned spot UV elements on the spine and covers—likely a printing error. It’s unclear whether my volume is an isolated case or if the entire print run experienced similar issues. Conclusion: A Promising Series Continues The World After the Fall is crafted by singNsong, illustrated by Undead Gamja, and adapted by S-Cynan. Volume 5’s printed edition is set for release in February 2024 by Ize Press, while digital chapters are available on Webtoon.

Wataru Toda and Chiharu Saeki eagerly plan their third summer together. After returning from studying abroad for his second year at university, Chiharu reunites with Wataru, who balances his part-time job at the cinema with university studies. As both celebrate their twentieth birthdays, Wataru looks forward to legally enjoying a drink. However, it quickly becomes apparent to Chiharu and his colleagues that Wataru struggles with a low tolerance for alcohol. Despite his claims to the contrary, he gets tipsy after just one glass. When he goes out with his cinema coworkers, he soon falls into a deep sleep, prompting them to call Chiharu for help. This situation leads to Niimi-san, Wataru’s boss at the cinema, witnessing Wataru kiss Chiharu, eventually asking if the two are dating. Does he have ulterior motives, or does he possess unexpected empathy for their situation? Chiharu senses something has been troubling Wataru for a while, but Wataru struggles to articulate his feelings. Have they reached a pivotal moment in their relationship where they can’t move forward until Wataru confronts what’s bothering him? Unique Art Style and Relationship Growth Nagisa Furuya occupies a special place in the slice-of-life Boys’ Love genre, earning recognition for her distinctive art style and the realism she brings to evolving friendships. In this My Summer of You Volume 3, both Chiharu and Wataru officially reach the Japanese age of majority. At the time of the manga’s creation, this age was 20, though it dropped to 18 in 2022, while the legal drinking age remains at 20. But what does this milestone mean for their relationship? As both focus on university studies and part-time jobs, unspoken feelings linger between them. They cherish their summer time together, yet Wataru, influenced by alcohol, reveals a hidden side of himself that changes their dynamic. Chiharu realizes that an action from their high school days still haunts Wataru, hindering their relationship’s progress. Bonus Story and Rating As in Volumes 1 and 2, this volume includes a bonus story where Wataru and Chiharu help at a traditional seaside inn for a friend and end up spending the night. This volume arguably deserves the OT rating among the three in this Boys’ Love series. However, it remains mostly implied, allowing readers to use their imagination. The emphasis lies on the evolution of the young men’s relationship as they become more attuned to each other’s feelings, making it a highly recommendable volume for LGBT+ sections in high school and sixth-form libraries. Color and Presentation Nagisa Furuya’s manga features her signature use of blue to evoke a sense of summer, good weather, and optimism, which continues in this volume, along with three of the four color pages at the front. The translation, as always, is expertly handled by Jocelyne Allen, and Nicole Roderick’s lettering ensures a smooth reading experience. The volume also includes a page of translation notes and a charming two-page afterword from the mangaka, originally featured beneath the dust jacket of the Japanese edition. Preview and Upcoming Works If this volume appears chunkier than usual, it’s because Kodansha has included the first chapter as a preview of Nagisa Furuya’s 2015 one-shot BL My Ultramarine Sky, set to release in late December 2023. I thoroughly enjoyed this title after reading it in French from Hana, and I look forward to sharing my thoughts on the U.S. edition soon.

In the castle, Princess Ria slowly matures as the only daughter of the ruthless emperor, Caitel. Thanks to her memories from a past life, she navigates her dangerous surroundings but just barely. Caitel seems to be opening his heart to Ria, yet he remains vigilant. His enemies wait for any opportunity to strike at him—or, in this case, at Ria—to inflict pain. Thankfully, Ria has the strongest knight in the empire, Asisi, by her side. After Asisi receives permission to retire from the war front, he requests assignment as Ria’s personal knight. Caitel grants this request, marking the first time Asisi has ever asked for anything. Their relationship, forged in childhood, grows complex as they navigate their past, with Asisi standing alongside Caitel when he seized the throne. Though their bond remains somewhat ambiguous, I would argue they could even be considered friends. Ria’s Growth and Challenges In this Volume, we witness Ria transition from a toddler to a seven-year-old. She begins to understand her father’s true character and the nature of those around her. Initially, she tries to charm them with her cuteness, but this strategy evolves into a key part of her personality. Perdel, the chancellor of the empire, becomes increasingly obsessed with her, despite having twins with his wife, Silvia. Daughter of the Emperor continues its slow-paced narrative. Over two volumes, Ria ages a few years but remains a child. The series adopts a slice-of-life theme, showcasing character development through interactions with Ria and depicting the little princess’s daily life. Initially, I felt the story aimed for Ria to survive and live freely away from the emperor. However, as the narrative progresses, that goal seems to shift, leaving me uncertain about its ultimate direction. Ria finds herself surrounded by protectors who genuinely care for her, including her father. Although Caitel acts like a tsundere, those closest to him recognize his deep love for his daughter, even if he stubbornly calls her his “offspring” instead of “daughter.” Small steps, right? I still hope for a plot twist to propel the story forward. Expanding Perspectives In these two volumes, we gain multiple perspectives beyond Ria’s and Caitel’s. Perdel is an intriguing character; his love for Ria is so intense that he would adopt her as his daughter if Caitel wouldn’t kill him for daring to look at her. Through Perdel’s eyes, we see how much Caitel has changed since Ria entered his life. We also delve deeper into Asisi’s personality. The rumors surrounding him are as grim as those about the emperor, but there’s more to Asisi than meets the eye. Despite his desire to end his life, Ria’s innocence ignites a protective instinct within him. For the first time, he yearns to serve and protect the little princess for as long as he can. Having endured an abusive childhood and years of warfare, Ria brings a glimmer of hope into his life. Focus on Relationships Unlike other manhwa series in the same genre, such as Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke’s Mansion, Daughter of the Emperor emphasizes the relationships between Ria, her father, and those around her, rather than on romantic interests. However, I still hold out hope for Ria’s future love interest. It would be fascinating to see the poor man who captures her heart deal with Caitel’s jealousy. The series leans heavily on dialogue and inner thoughts, with the omniscient viewpoint revealing the characters’ feelings at all times. Illustrations and Extras Volume 4 delights readers with a folded illustration of the characters, although Volume 5 lacks this feature. Both volumes, however, include bonus scenes at the end, offering additional insights into random events in the story along with a letter from the author. Daughter of the Emperor is written by Yunsul and illustrated by Rino. Yen Press releases the English edition, translated by Micah Kim. Fans can look forward to Volume 6, slated for release in January 2024.

We left off in Volume 6 with South Korean and Japanese S-rank hunters joining forces to raid the dangerous Jeju Island dungeon. For years, nobody could clear this dungeon due to the overwhelming strength of the magic beasts there. The hunters give everything they’ve got, but trust issues linger. The Japanese hunters have joined the raid with their own hidden agenda. In Solo Leveling Volume 7, we follow the hunters as they battle their way through the swarm of monster ants. When the Korean team finally confronts the ant queen, who appears to be the strongest monster in the dungeon, she shocks everyone. With her dying breath, she summons something far more terrifying—a magic beast, unlike anything the hunters have encountered. This creature talks, absorbs the abilities of its prey, and possesses such overwhelming strength that no hunter on the island can lay a scratch on it. Just as all hope seems lost, Sung Jinwoo, everyone’s favorite hunter, steps in. Although Jinwoo didn’t officially join the raid, opting instead to spend time with his family, he prepared for the worst. He placed his shadows among the team, ready to step in if things turned desperate. And that’s exactly what happens. Jinwoo swiftly defeats the monsters and gains a new army of undead in the process. Jinwoo’s incredible display of power doesn’t go unnoticed. The world watches, and other countries start making their moves. The United States is the first to offer Jinwoo whatever he wants, but they have no idea what they’re getting into. Jinwoo, though, remains focused and refuses to be swayed by empty promises. Yet, he’s not out of danger. A national-level hunter, ranked above S-rank, sets his sights on him, and mysterious new enemies begin to emerge. Non-Stop Action and Tense Fights Whenever I open a Solo Leveling volume, I expect high-octane action, and Volume 7 delivers. The pace never slows, especially with the intense raid on Jeju Island, leaving almost no time for dialogue between the characters. The author and illustrator, as always, don’t hold back when it comes to violence and gore. If you’re squeamish or can’t handle blood, you might find some scenes tough to get through. But if you love action-packed, no-holds-barred battles, you’ll enjoy the clashes between Jinwoo and the magic beasts. That said, don’t get too attached to any character, because there’s always a risk they’ll meet a tragic end. In this volume, hunter Cha shows more signs of having feelings for Jinwoo, leaving me curious about whether their relationship will develop in future volumes. A Shift in Perspective While Jinwoo remains the primary focus of the story, Volume 7 stands out for a reason. Since the Jeju Island raid is televised, even regular citizens can follow the battle in real time. The narrative shifts between the hunters fighting on the island and the citizens watching anxiously on TV. The news covers part of the story, allowing us to see the reactions of the public as they cheer for the hunters and for Jinwoo. This addition felt refreshing, especially considering the emotional weight of the Jeju Island dungeon. For years, it claimed the lives of many hunters, and the citizens had lost loved ones to the monsters inside. Now, they finally get to witness some closure as the magic beasts meet their end. International Intrigue and Language Barriers With multiple nations involved in this volume, we learn more about hunters from other countries and how they perceive the Korean hunters—particularly Jinwoo. Usually, I find it frustrating when characters effortlessly communicate across language barriers without explanation. How do they understand each other without translation tools or special abilities? Thankfully, the author avoids this issue by including interpreters when Jinwoo interacts with non-Korean speakers. The text even distinguishes between languages, making these interactions more believable. I appreciated this attention to detail. Conclusion As always, Solo Leveling Volume 7 keeps readers on the edge of their seats with its non-stop action and intense battles. While Jinwoo continues to shine as the star, the inclusion of different perspectives, both from the hunters and the general public, adds depth to the story. The introduction of new international players and enemies promises even more excitement in future volumes. With Volume 8 and the anime adaptation set to release in January 2024, Solo Leveling fans have plenty to look forward to.

The Faraway Paladin has quickly gained popularity as one of the top isekai-fantasy anime series, with fans eagerly awaiting a potential Season 3. After two successful seasons in 2021 and 2023, viewers have been left wondering when they’ll see more of this beloved story. The anime, based on Kanata Yanagino’s light novel series, follows the journey of Will, a human boy raised by undead guardians in a forgotten city. Will learns valuable lessons from his unique family and embarks on a quest to fulfill his role as a noble Paladin, fighting demons and protecting the innocent. Here’s the latest information on The Faraway Paladin Season 3 and what we can expect in 2024. Will There Be a Season 3 of The Faraway Paladin? Currently, there’s no confirmed release date for The Faraway Paladin Season 3. Fans are still hopeful despite the uncertainty. The second season, which concluded in late 2023, covered all available material from the light novels. The series’ future depends largely on when Kanata Yanagino, who has been on a health hiatus since 2017, releases more content. Additionally, while the anime enjoys a dedicated fanbase, Blu-ray sales have been lower than anticipated, which may affect production decisions. As of now, it’s unlikely that we’ll see Season 3 before 2025. For official updates, keep an eye on the anime’s official channels. What Makes The Faraway Paladin Unique? The Faraway Paladin stands out among isekai anime thanks to its unique plot and character development. The story introduces Will, also known as William G. Maryblood, a protagonist who doesn’t follow the usual tropes of the genre. Instead of gaining overpowered abilities and exploring his new world carefree, Will takes a more thoughtful approach. He feels a strong sense of responsibility and seeks to live a meaningful life to atone for his past mistakes. Will’s journey sets him apart from typical isekai leads like Kirito from Sword Art Online or Rimuru from That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime. His development feels earned, similar to the character progression found in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Additionally, the divine intervention in Will’s life adds a fresh element to the isekai formula, giving The Faraway Paladin its distinct appeal. Conclusion Fans eagerly await a third season of The Faraway Paladin, but the lack of new light novel material and financial challenges could delay production until 2025 or beyond. However, the unique storytelling and character development in this series keep it at the forefront of isekai anime discussions, and fans can remain hopeful for the show’s return. Stay tuned for updates as we keep an eye on any new announcements regarding The Faraway Paladin Season 3.

Classroom of The Elite Season 4 Release Date As of now, Studio Lerche hasn’t officially confirmed a release date for Season 4. Fans eagerly await more information, and we’ll provide updates as soon as the news drops. Based on production schedules, we anticipate Season 4 will premiere in Summer 2025, though there is speculation it could be delayed to Winter 2026. With only one key visual released and no trailer in sight, a 2026 debut may give the studio additional time to polish the production. Anime fans across the globe are wondering when Classroom of the Elite Season 4 will drop. As excitement continues to build, we wait for official announcements. Until then, let’s explore what the plot might hold for us! Classroom of the Elite Season 4 Plot The anime has already covered volumes 1 to 11.5 of the first year storyline. Volume 1 of Year 2 picks up where the third season will leave off. If you can’t wait for the anime, consider reading Classroom of the Elite: Year 2 Volume 1, now available in English.

Season 4 will likely cover volumes 1 to 4.5 of Year 2, expanding on the storyline’s twists and turns.

While Wise Man’s Grandchild hasn’t been officially renewed for a second season, fans are eagerly waiting for an announcement. If a Season 2 does happen, it would likely continue the story arc from the light novel series. Speculation suggests the release could be as early as Winter 2026, with potential changes in production staff. Below is a detailed look at what we know so far about the possibility of a second season of Wise Man’s Grandchild and when it could arrive. Wise Man’s Grandchild: Background and Popularity Starting in 2015, Wise Man’s Grandchild (light novel) by Tsuyoshi Yoshioka has gained a solid fan base, with over 6.7 million copies in circulation. The series has captivated fans of isekai anime and novels alike, landing in the top 50 best-selling light novels of all time. The anime version, loved for its blend of action and magic, follows Shin Wolford, a man reincarnated into a fantasy world. With immense magical abilities, Shin becomes virtually unbeatable, yet he strives for real challenges to test his power. This journey keeps fans coming back for more. Will There Be a Second Season? Right now, Wise Man’s Grandchild has only one season, which aired in April 2019. Directed by Masafumi Tamura and animated by Studio Silver Link, the anime impressed viewers, even though quality between seasons can fluctuate at the studio. If Season 2 happens, it’s highly likely that Studio Silver Link and Masafumi Tamura would return for production. Release Date for Wise Man’s Grandchild Season 2 As of now, no official word has come from Silver Link regarding a second season, meaning there’s no countdown to its release yet. However, fans are on the lookout for any updates. If a second season is green-lit, late 2025 or early 2026 seems a realistic target. Many fans speculate that an early 2026 release is likely, giving Silver Link enough time to wrap up other projects like Princession Orchestra. Though excitement continues to build for a sequel, for now, we must remain patient and wait for further announcements. What Will Season 2 Be About? The first season of Wise Man’s Grandchild covered volumes 1 through 3 of the light novel. Wise Man’s Grandchild Season 2 would likely pick up where the anime left off, starting with Volume 4. If you’re eager to continue the story now, you can dive into Wise Man’s Grandchild Volume 4 in English. The light novel series concluded in November 2022 with 17 volumes. Should Season 2 be produced, it is expected to cover volumes 4 to 6, likely spanning another 12 episodes. To adapt the entire Wise Man’s Grandchild series, it could take the studio several more seasons, meaning we might be waiting five or more years for a complete adaptation.

Final Thoughts on Wise Man’s Grandchild Season 2 Many fans are holding out hope that Wise Man’s Grandchild Season 2 will eventually be announced. Although it’s not impossible, the likelihood of a new season remains slim. Keep an eye on official channels for updates, but temper expectations until further news arrives.

The third season of Goblin Slayer hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, but there’s strong anticipation it will cover the events from Volume 9 of the light novel series onward. The potential release date could be as early as Spring 2026, with some speculating that there may be changes in the animation studio or production staff. Here’s a breakdown of everything we currently know about the possible Goblin Slayer Season 3 release and what fans can expect. Goblin Slayer’s Popularity and Impact Created by Kumo Kagyu, the Goblin Slayer light novel series first debuted in 2016. Since then, it has grown into one of the most beloved dark fantasy series in both the light novel and anime world. With over 7 million copies sold, it ranks among the top 30 best-selling light novels of all time, drawing in fans of mature, darker anime. The Gritty World of Goblin Slayer The anime follows Goblin Slayer, a skilled adventurer whose sole purpose is to destroy goblins after a traumatic experience. Known for its brutal action scenes and grim atmosphere, the series explores themes of survival, vengeance, and the darker sides of a fantasy world. So far, the Goblin Slayer universe includes two seasons and a film. The first season, released in 2018, was directed by Takaharu Ozaki and animated by White Fox. The second season, which came out in 2023, was directed by Misato Takada and animated by LIDENFILMS. The movie Goblin Slayer: Goblin’s Crown also added a cinematic experience for fans. While there is no confirmation for Season 3 yet, it’s likely that LIDENFILMS and Misato Takada will continue with the next season if production is green-lit. Goblin Slayer Season 3: Will It Happen? The first season of Goblin Slayer aired in October 2018, and the second followed in 2023. With such a gap between the first two seasons, fans are wondering when Goblin Slayer Season 3 will drop and if Episode 1 will arrive soon. Goblin Slayer Season 3 Release Date Speculation As of now, LIDENFILMS has not confirmed a third season, so there’s no official release date. Fans are anxiously awaiting any updates. Once official news is announced, it will likely come through the series’ Twitter account, and we’ll share it right away. Current speculation suggests that Season 3 could be announced by late 2025, with a potential release in early 2026. Since no trailers or key visuals have been released yet, this time frame would allow LIDENFILMS to complete other ongoing projects, like Call of the Night. While we wait for official word, it’s safe to say that excitement is building for a sequel due to the series’ enormous popularity. For now, we need to remain patient for updates on the next season. Let’s now explore what the third season’s plot could look like. Goblin Slayer Season 3 Plot: What’s Next? The anime adaptation has covered volumes 1 to 8 of the light novel series, with the movie adapting Volume 5. The upcoming Volume 9 continues where the anime left off, so fans eager to dive into the story can check out Goblin Slayer Volume 9 in English. In Japan, Goblin Slayer currently has 16 light novel volumes, with no signs of concluding soon. If Season 3 is produced, it is expected to cover volumes 9 to 12, likely spanning another 12-episode season. I highly recommend reading the Goblin Slayer light novel series if you’re a fan. Studio LIDENFILMS would need at least three more seasons to adapt all the existing material. Even if production started soon, it would take over five years to complete the remaining content.
