Dengeki Bunko’s fall festival has confirmed the previous rumors spread about the internet with the announcement of a 3rd season of To Aru Majutsu no Index, sure to be relieving for fans who have been waiting desperately for years.
The new season is part of the “To Aru Majutsu no Index Project 2018“, which will supposedly boast things other than “Index” – the announcement was also released by way of this PV:
The upcoming 3rd season of To Aru Majutsu no Index will air sometime in 2018.
hope they will release it before ww3 brokeout in our real life
Fucking finally.
The way anime studios are doing this I wouldn’t be surprised to see a season 3 to Ah! My Goddess at this point… The question to be asking is, at this point why now?
Don’t get me wrong, being a fan of the show, I kind of want to see a season 3 as well, but the amount of time that has gone by has allowed my interest in the franchise to switch gears and focus on the series that are currently airing. 6 years really is a ridiculously long time. I would have said the same about Digimon Tri when it came out, but in my opinion the only thing wrong with Tri is the ridiculously drawn out span of time in between installments… half a year is too long to wait for 4 measly episodes that lead to nothing more than more cliffhangers. (If the wait was 2 months apart that’d be a lot different.)
But since they’re at it, maybe they can get around to providing season 2s and 3s to other animes that were promised continuations. One I’d like to see is Kazuma no Stigma.
*Kaze no Stigma.
And the novel never got finished because the author died, so we’re never seeing “continuations” of KnS.
So it took them like six or so years to finally decide to release another season? Or decide to finally make season three?
Burn them innocentius!
