Will there be a Season 3 for Arifureta? Release Date and Everything we Know so Far

The fantasy anime series, Arifureta was first aired in 2019. The complete name of the series is Arifureta: From Commonplace to World’s Strongest, and it has been written by Ryo Shirakome. After quite a long break of two years, the Second season of the series premiered between January 13 and March 31, 2022. The popularity of the series seems to be calling the makers to give the audience a third season.

Season 3 for Arifureta

Most anime series announce the renewal of a season in the last episode of the season premiered. However, this trend was not seen in Arifureta. But considering that the second season premiered after a gap of two long years, the audience may have to wait for the third season.

There is no shortage of stories for Arifureta as writer Ryo Shirakome has already written 12 volumes. This anime series has been illustrated by Takayaki and published by Overlap. The last volume was published on January 25, 2022. The digital volume came on June 23, 2022. The first two seasons of Arifureta have encompassed six volumes leaving six more volumes of the story to be adapted in forthcoming seasons (if any).

It is the popularity of the show that decides the upcoming season of the anime series. Currently, approximately 83k people follow the official page of Arifureta on Twitter. Approval for an upcoming season is usually when a page has 100K followers or more. Ever since the release of the second season of Arifureta, the searches have drastically increased for this series. The 83k mark will likely reach the 100k mark and be approved for a season renewal.

Since there is no confirmation of renewal currently, nor is the production under process, if there is a season 3 for Arifureta, it will not be before 2024.

Plot of Arifureta
