Yee-haw~~~! The third season of the anime! It’s the third season~! Yay! Let’s pray to God! Thanks to your support, we finally get the anime’s third season! Thank you so much! I’m so happy to be able to play Myne again. I think the story of Myne and her family in the long, long story is the focus of this third season. New characters will be introduced, and the story will move even further! I also hope that you will pay attention to the family love. I will play each episode with great care. Please look forward to the third season!
Ferdinand VA Show Hayami:
Nemeses, schemers, and crooks begin to threaten Myne in the third season. As her guardian, Ferdinand protects her strictly. I’d like to play Ferdinand cool and precisely with passion in my heart. Please look forward to the third season.
And finally, director Mitsuru Hongo said a few words about Bookworm season 3:
We’ve decided to make a continuation of Ascendance of a Bookworm. It’s a happy thing because I was wondering why it ended in the middle of the second arc. If we can finish this, there will be no more regrets. We are currently in the middle of production and plan to run through till the end. Please look forward to the broadcast in the next spring.
