The third season of the popular TV anime Re:Zero – Starting Life in Another World (commonly known as Re:Zero), based on a light novel, will begin airing on October 2 across 21 stations nationwide, including TOKYO MX in Japan.
Following the trials of the “Sanctuary” depicted in the second season, this new season will see Emilia, Natsuki Subaru, and others face harsh new challenges in the watergate city of Priestella. The third season is divided into the “Attack Arc” (8 episodes) and the “Counterattack Arc” (8 episodes), with a total of 16 episodes planned. The highly anticipated first episode of the “Attack Arc” (Episode 51), titled “Theater of Malice,” will be a 90-minute special.
The original Re:Zero story, written by Tappei Nagatsuki and illustrated by Shinichirou Otsuka, follows high school student Subaru, who is summoned to another world and gains the unique ability to turn back time upon his death.
The third season’s premiere episode, Episode 51, takes place one year after the battles in the Sanctuary. Subaru, now living peaceful days alongside Emilia’s faction, finds this peace abruptly shattered by the arrival of a letter. Delivered by Anastasia’s envoys Joshua and Mimi, the letter is an invitation to the watergate city of Priestella, where a merchant in possession of a magic stone sought by Emilia is said to reside. Awaiting Subaru and his companions in Priestella are familiar faces from their past.
