This thank you letter was not a confirmation that KonoSuba Season 3 would never happen, but some fans chose to interpret it that way.ĭespite the announcement being vague, it's probably safe to rule out that the voice actors were talking about the KonoSuba OVA 2 episode. The note said that the "anime collaboration had ended for now, at least." Akatsuki thanked everyone involved with the anime project and expressed his hope to work with Studio Deen in the future. This note was published within KonoSuba Volume 11 in May of 2017. The rumor that Studio Deen had KonoSuba Season 3 canceled started with YouTube videos which discussed a thank you letter from author Natsume Akatsuki. Other fans believe it was Studio Deen's way of saying they hoped KonoSuba Season 3 would happen.
KONOSUBA LIGHT NOVEL TRANSLATION FULL
When the final episode of the second season aired in Japan, Kazuma's voice finished off the series by saying, "Thank you for the support, everyone! Our true battle has just begun, and this is just the beginning of our grand adventure in this wonderful world!" The Crunchyroll episode cut Kazuma off, but some have interpreted the full statement as an advertisement for the light novels since the season did not end with a cliffhanger like the first season. The KonoSuba OVA shipped with the limited edition of the ninth volume of the light novel series. There was also a KonoSuba OVA (Original Video Animation) released in June of 2016 called "God's Blessings on This Wonderful Choker!" The story followed Kazuma, who puts on a choker that supposedly grants wishes only to find out that it'll choke him to death unless he fulfills the wish he'd unconsciously made when first putting on the choker. An English dub of the KonoSuba anime has yet to be officially confirmed. Both seasons were relatively short, ending in only 10 episodes. The first anime adaptation by Studio Deen began airing during the 2016 winter anime season and the second season followed a year later, with the final episode airing in March of 2017. However, a fan project for the KonoSuba English light novel is already up to the first half of KonoSuba Volume 11. The English translation of KonoSuba Volume 3 is scheduled for release on August 22, 2017. As of this article's publishing, only the second volume has been released, which means the English translation is not even caught up with the anime's story. Unfortunately, the English version is far behind the Japanese light novels. The official KonoSuba English translation for both the manga and light novel is being handled by Yen Press. However, first, let's dig into what is known for certain. There's even the possibility that the Bakuen series could be adapted into an explosive new anime spinoff.
KONOSUBA LIGHT NOVEL TRANSLATION MOVIE
While claims about any cancellation are false, information about this new anime project is very limited, so it's possible the voice actors are talking about a KonoSuba: God's Blessing On This Wonderful World! movie or even the KonoSuba OVA 2 episode. There have been a lot of rumors flying around that the third season of KonoSuba was confirmed canceled by KonoSuba light novel creator Natsume Akatsuki.
Fans are excited since it's possible we'll see more of Kazuma, Aqua, Megumin, and Darkness earlier than expected. The KonoSuba Season 3 release date may have been confirmed during a recent interview with Jun Fukushima and Rie Takahashi, the voice actors for the main KonoSuba characters Kazuma and Megumin.
