Will There Be A Third Season?

Yes, Arifureta From Commonplace to World’s Strongest has a high chance of coming back. The entire running course of the anime was nothing short of a celebration. Before and after each episode, the discussion threads were flowing with comments of love and appreciation. Moreover, the same was reflected in the numbers garnered by the anime. The overall rating of the second season on IMDb was close to 7.2 stars out of 10. Moreover, the users of MyAnimeList score the anime as high as 7.2 stars.

However, the number of fans engaging with the content was not as high. This might be a fault at the hands of the marketing team as they did not do a well-enough job in promoting the anime. The fans who watched the series had nothing but good reviews for its content. Thus, if such low viewership numbers persist, Arifureta Season 3 might not happen after the OVA.

Is There Plenty Of Source Material?

Skipping the manga, Arifureta takes the material directly from the original light novel series. Created by Ryo Shirakome in the year 2013, the text has 12 volumes in total. Including both seasons 1 and 2, the anime has only used six of the entire text. Thus, there is more than enough source material for another season. In fact, there is as much material that can also feed the fourth season after Arifureta From Commonplace to World’s Strongest Season 3. Ending mid-way through the sixth volume, the next season will open with the same book.

However, the addition of the OVA to the chronology has brought a new angle to the text. Fans believe that the OVA will be in sync with the order of the light novel. For that to get a confirmation, fans will have to wait until the release of the Arifureta OVA this year.

What Will Happen In Season 4?

The final episode of Arifureta Season 2, titled “A New Journey,” uncovered the fact that the story is not over yet. In fact, Hajime’s story had only begun at this point in time. Towards the end of the previous season, it was revealed that all the students were joining Hajime’s cause despite knowing that they could even die in this. Now, Arifureta Season 3, will take a look at how Hajime’s love life takes a turn after Kaori made the confession to him.

On the other side, there was a reveal that the love of Hajime’s life, Yue wanted to be in relationships with other women also. So now, he is stuck in making a decision between Kaori and Yue. The third season will also take a look at how the battle between Haulia and the Hoelscher Empire ended. Also, when Hajime comes to know of this fight, his reaction will also be noteworthy. Lastly, Season 3 will also look at how the adventures of this team in the future.

Arifureta Season 3: Release Date

At the time of writing, there is no confirmation whether there will be a third season or not. Thus, assuming the release date will be a difficult task.
