The OVA will be called Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku o! 3 -Bonus Stage- and is made up of two episodes that haven’t aired. The episodes also have their own titles: “Red Stream Explosion!” and “Nisemono Chūi!” (translated as “Beware of Fakes!”). Kadokawa dropped a teaser trailer as well as a visual.

People in Japan will be treated to a two-week theatrical screening in March, where they can get the Blu-ray Disc and DVD ahead of its official release on April 25. The Blu-ray and DVD will also have a new prose story from KONOSUBA light novel author Natsume Akatsuki.

KONOSUBA – God’s blessing on this wonderful world! 3 began in April and is available to stream on Crunchyroll. The TV anime first began in 2016.

Discotek Media gave this description for KONOSUBA season 1:

KONOSUBA Plot

Kazuma Sato decides that today is the day to get out of the house for a bit. Since he dies, pointlessly, it’s clearly a bad choice. The goddess who greets him in the afterlife, however, offers him a chance to be reborn in a world not unlike that of a video game, and as a bonus she’ll even throw in a cool item or power! Can’t possibly be a bad choice, right? Except he arrives with no money at all, dead average skills, and his “bonus” isn’t useful at all–since he picked the goddess, Aqua, herself. How are the two of them supposed to defeat the evil Devil King and live happily ever after? Well, for them, it probably starts with day laboring rather than adventuring. And it’s only going to get more disappointing from there!
