Fans of KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World! have every reason to celebrate. The beloved fantasy comedy is officially getting a fourth season. The continuation was first teased in spring of last year, but it wasn't until this winter that the studio finally confirmed the format: Kazuma and his eccentric party are returning to TV screens. The announcement was made during a special live stream dedicated to the anime’s 10th anniversary, but the premiere date has yet to be revealed. You can read the full announcement here.
The anime is based on the popular light novel series by author Natsume Akatsuki. The third season aired from April to June 2024 and spanned 11 episodes, adapting volumes six and seven of the original novels. Animation studio Drive handled the production, bringing back the franchise’s signature balance of humor, fantasy, and chaotic energy that made the earlier seasons such a success.
The final light novel in the main series was released in May 2020, completing the story across 17 volumes. Since its debut, KonoSuba has grown into a full-fledged multimedia franchise including multiple manga adaptations, spin-off stories, feature films, and video games, building one of the most recognized comedic fantasy worlds in modern anime.
Kazuma Sato is a shut-in gamer who suddenly finds himself facing an unexpected twist of fate. After an unfortunate accident, he meets a self-proclaimed goddess who offers him a chance to be reborn in a magical world. Allowed to take only one thing with him, Kazuma cheekily chooses the goddess herself. Together they set off for a new life filled with absurd quests, explosive magic, and dubious heroism as they face the challenge of defeating the local Demon King.
With the fourth season now in production, fans can look forward to more of the ridiculous adventures, witty banter, and over-the-top battles that have made KonoSuba a fan favorite. Whether you’re a longtime follower or a newcomer to the world of Kazuma and his party, the upcoming season promises to deliver plenty of laughs and chaos once again.
