‘KonoSuba’ is warming up for its return with a third season of the main series, but in the meantime what we have in view is ‘An Explosion on This Wonderful World!’, a spin-off focused on the character of Megumin.
‘KonoSuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World!‘ will adapt the franchise’s light novels written by Natsume Akatsuki and illustrated by Kurone Mishimawhich are set a year before the main series.
Change of study, but not team
The day remains to be specified, but the release date of the spin-off of ‘KonoSuba!’ for April 2023, within the spring season. For now, the trailer has given us the best look at the series so far, including a few brushstrokes of Megumin’s life together with her family and classmates… Although there will also be several new characters.
It has not yet been determined how many episodes the series will consist of, although it is most likely that we will have a season of about 12 episodes. So much for ‘KonoSuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World!’ as for the third season, the franchise changes hands and now Studio Drive will take over the anime.
Much of the creative team stays on the series, with Takaomi Kanasaki as CEOKoichi Kikuta as character designer and makoto uezu as composer of the soundtrack. As a novelty, Yujiro Abe will become the main director of the anime.
