Re: Zero Season 3 Episode 1 Is Set To Premiere On October 2! After the two successful seasons, the hit Isekai series Re: Zero returns with another jaw-dropping season. That’s right! Re: Zero Season 3, the highly anticipated season is on the cards. Finally, after four years of waiting, the anime returns to enchant its fans with magic and excellent narration. Despite that, things aren’t in the Isekai anime’s favor. Although the series is gearing up for its return, the anime has faced major setbacks due to some undisclosed circumstances. So, does it mean the third installment won’t be out this year? Let’s find out.
Based on the Japanese web novel Re: Zero, it centers on Subaru Natsuki’s ability to turn back time after he dies. After suddenly being summoned to a fantasy-like world, Subaru learns about his magical power. That further helps him save his young half-elf friend, Emilia, who is the candidate for the next ruler of the Lugunica Kingdom. After saving her life, Subaru starts living in the palace to help Emilia achieve her goal. During this time, he also assists his new friends while carrying the memory of everything that happened before his death.
Re: Zero Season 3 Is Officially Back Finally, after four years of waiting, Kadokawa made the surprising announcement regarding Re: Zero Season 3 release date. One of the popular isekai series is finally returning to claim its throne. The third season was announced on March 23, 2024, at AnimeJapan Expo. The series renewal news is confirmed via a short teaser trailer. The 2-minute long teaser trailer begins with a bandaged-covered woman introducing herself as Sin Archbishop of the Witch Cult named Sirius Romanee-Conti.
VIDEO Shortly after, the scene shifted to Subaru Natsuki and his half-elf friend heading to a new and unfamiliar place. The teaser trailer suggests that the pair will be followed by their friend and meet a group of new people on their journey. It also highlights new characters and how they could help Subaru Natsuki. While little detail is unveiled at this moment, Re: Zero Season 3 will make a grand return. That’s because the third season’s first episode will be a 90-minute special episode.
Well, it has now become a trend in anime to release the first episode in theatres. Likewise, Re: Zero Season 3 release date for Episode 1 will be August 30, 2024, and will remain there for two weeks. In addition, it was also revealed that the screening of the first episode will take place at AnimeExpo 2024 on July 7, 2024. After Oshi No Ko ‘s successful theatre release , Re: Zero is expected to meet with the same excitement.
Crunchyroll Pulled Its Special Screening Of Re: Zero Season 3 Episode 1 It was announced that the hour-long special episode would be first screened at Japan Expo Paris 2024. However, it was canceled from its schedule due to some undisclosed circumstances. Crunchyroll’s official French X posted an update about the screening of the first episode of Re: Zero Season 3. The anime streaming giant wrote, “Unfortunately, for reasons beyond our control,” they were forced to cancel the screening of the third season’s first episode. However, the rest of the screening and events would remain the same.
Crunchyroll/ Emilia Crunchyroll also apologized for the situation. Japan Expo, which was hosted in Paris from July 11-14, 2024, was the largest Japanese cultural convention. This year, the Expo hosted 680 cultural events, and hundreds of exhibitors participated. The anime streaming giant released the schedule on July 10, and Re: Zero—Starting Life in Another World was the surprise addition to the Expo. However, just a day before the screening of the first episode, it was abruptly canceled.
While the reason remained unclear, many believed it was the recent Tower of God Episode 2 leak, which was screened at Anime Expo 2024. The leaked episode was uploaded to several torrent sites with Anime Expo 2024 watermark. This might be the reason behind Re: Zero Season 3 Episode 1’s screening cancelation. Kodakowa, the publisher behind the anime, has already been a victim of a major data leak. That’s why the anime studio White Fox has decided not to spoil the anime.
Crunchyroll Is Ready To Take Action Despite the screening cancelation of the first episode of Re: Zero Season 3, the anime faced a dark fate. The series’ first episode was leaked, and it remained unclear how this leak happened. In the wake of the recent leak, a Crunchyroll spokesperson commented that they are aware of the content leak and are currently investigating to identify the source of this leak. The anime streaming giant confirmed that their team is ready to act.
Crunchyroll Last week was a complete shocker for the anime industry. Dozens of anime titles were leaked online, including SpongeBob spinoff Plankton: The Movie, Dan Da Dan, Arcane Season 2, and Terminator Zero. Re: Zero isn’t the only leak; several high-profile Crunchyroll animes have faced a dark fate. In fact, Netflix is also suffering from security breach issues. The team has already revealed that they are actively investigating the matter.
Re: Zero Season 3: New Trailer Out Re: Zero Season 3 is gearing up for its return despite being leaked. During AnimeJapan 2024, the much anticipated third season released its new trailer. It teases the looming battle on the horizon. While the protagonist and his friends head to the new land, the reunion brings new characters and different storylines to the table. In addition, the teaser also hints at new foes and the battle between some powerful characters. However, the teaser also hints at Natsuki’s dark fate. Will he die once again?
Re: Zero Season 3: Cast Details Besides the new teaser trailer, the anime has also revealed its key staff members. This time, the staff will see some considerable changes as Masahiro Shinohara takes over the duties of former director Masaharu Watanabe. Further, the character and chief animation director will also see some changes. The previous character and chief animation director was Kyuta Sakai.
Director: Masahiro Shinohara Music: Kenichiro Suehiro Character Design, Chief Animation Directors: Haruka Sagawa Series Composition: Masahiro Yokotani Scenario Supervision: Tappei Nagatsuki Animation Production: WHITE FOX Crunchyroll In addition, the series’ main cast and voice actors will return to enchant their audience. These include:
Subaru Natsuki: Yusuke Kobayashi (Japanese), Sean Chiplock (English) Emilia: Rie Takahashi (Japanese), Kayli Mills (English) Sin Archbishops Petelgeuse Romanee-Conti: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka (Japanese), Todd Haberkorn (English) Puck: Yumi Uchiyama (Japanese), Erica Mendez (English) Sirius: Chika Anzai (Japanese) While it remains unclear who else will return, Crunchyroll has confirmed that the anime will witness new cast additions. These include Liliana Masquerade, who Aya Yamane voices. Liliana is a bard and “songstress” of Pristella. Her singing voice can captivate anyone who listens to her. Besides her soothing voice, Liliana is a high-spirited girl who wishes to sing a new heroic tale.
Crunchyroll That’s why she asks Subaru about the defeat of the Three Mabeasts and the Sin Archbishop of the Witch Cult. Another character named Capella Emerada will join Re: Zero Season 3. However, her voice actress has yet to be revealed. Further, Konomi Suzuki will be performing the opening theme song of Re: Zero Season 3 titled “Reweave.” Meanwhile, MYTH & ROID will perform the ending theme titled “NOX LUX.”
What To Expect From Re: Zero Season 3? The third season will witness a time skip. Following the liberation of the Sanctuary in the second season, the Royal Selection will begin. Emilia’s Camp is working towards the King’s Selection after the battle against the Great Rabbit is over. However, Natsuki Subaru’s days of having fun will be over after an invitation letter from a messenger hints at the end of the peace and the beginning of the new battle.
It’s a letter from Anastasia inviting Emilia to the Five Major Cities of Lungunica—the floodgate city of Pristella. Although Emilia accepts the offer and heads to Pristella, things won’t be in her favor. Some unexpected dark fate has yet to come. Evil intentions lurk around the corner, and soon, things will take a dark turn, leaving Natsuki once again fighting for his stance. In Re: Zero Season 3, Subaru will also explore the depth of his psyche and the consequences of his decisions.
Crunchyroll Re: Zero Season 3 is expected to explore Arcs 5 and 6 of the light novel series, featuring Priestella and the Pleiades Watchtower. Since the arcs are quite important, at least a four-cour adaptation is needed to give them justice. Considering this, there’s a possibility that the third season will be divided into two cours of a total of 40 episodes. So far, the anime has remained true to its source material, adapting Volumes 1 to 15 of the web novel. Since the series is ongoing, we expect it to run for more seasons.
Re: Zero Season 3 Release Date Despite facing a dark fate, Re: Zero is ready to take its throne. The series is gearing up for its fall 2024 release. The official announcement says Re: Zero Season 3 will be released in two parts. The first part, “Shugeki-hen,” will be aired on October 2, 2024. Meanwhile, the second part, “Hangeki-hen,” will be aired in February 2025. In addition, the first episode of the first part will be 90 minutes long. That’s not all! We have some big news for you. For people in Austin, TX, the third season screening is scheduled for September 30 at 7 pm CT. It will take place at Regal Westgate Stadium 11. So, don’t miss it. This is all for now.
