I am the sexiest poster in the world!
I definitely wasn't expecting a double announcement of any kind, not even a season and a movie (much less two seasons of adapting material). I'm starting to believe that we'll see the entire LN adapted eventually!

How many of these light novels actually get entirely adapted? I'd have to imagine it can't be very many.

Adapt a volume or two every three to four years and maybe get a movie on occasion. It's the only way the animation studios can handle the massive demand for adaptations of so much manga and LNs, there just aren't enough studios out there to keep up a constant production.

Fun Shoe
The shows often are used as promo material for the novels themselves too so it's very rare for one to get adapted all the way to the end.

You get the odd show like Bookworm (and Konosuba) where the show takes off enough to be considered its own thing but that doesn't happen often.

Official confirmation

quote:

Based on the light novels by Natsume Akatsuki and Masahito Watari, KONOSUBA: An Explosion on This Wonderful World! is being directed by Yujiro Abe (Kaguya-sama: Love is War episode director) at studio Drive (VLAD LOVE) under the supervision of main series director Takaomi Kanasaki, with the return of Makoto Uezu as series composer and Koichi Kikuta as character designer as well.



quote:

My name is...

 

One year before a certain useless goddess and NEET extraordinaire hit the scene, Megumin, the "Greatest Genius of the Crimson Magic Clan," is hard at work. Ever since a life-changing encounter in her youth, the young wizard has dedicated her every waking moment to the pursuit of the ultimate offensive magic, Explosion! (Well...every moment not spent hustling food from her self-proclaimed rival.) And while the big sister's away, the little one will play. On a routine trip into the woods, Megumin's little sister, Komekko, finds a strange black kitten. Little does she know that this cat plays a key role in unsealing a Dark God's tomb...

New PV, anime premieres April 5th. Studio animating it is Studio Drive, but it’s still the same staff as the previous seasons.

Apparently it has leaked places. As a report, it is good. At first I was sort of annoyed, but the second the punchlines hit I ended up cackling.

Yup, seen a couple leaks on Youtube, also apparently the Kazuma/Megumin ship is already setting off in episode 1 of all times.

My hope is we'll get Megumin and Darkness' confessions in this season, but with 11 episodes that may be a stretch
