Authored by Rifujin na Magonote and illustrated by Shirotaka, the light novel series Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation has maintained massive popularity since its anime adaptation first aired.
While Season 3 was previously teased for a 2026 release, the official announcement dropped last night (January 10th), confirming that to celebrate the anime's fifth anniversary, Season 3 will begin airing this July! A new teaser visual was also unveiled.
Season 3 will pick up the story from Volume 13 of the original novel. This season promises even more intense emotional turmoil for Rudeus, kicking off brand new dramatic developments and adventures.
The newly released teaser visual features Eris, the young girl who, in the Season 1 finale, resolved to "become strong enough to protect Rudeus" and quietly embarked on a training journey. She's depicted with a sword in hand and a fierce, powerful expression. This very image also appeared in the final moments of last summer's teaser PV, sending fans in Japan and worldwide into a frenzy. Everyone's hyped to see what Eris will bring to Season 3!
