When is the Beastars season 3 release date? Get out your wolf masks and bunny ears: one of the most intriguing anime series around is coming back for another season.
Beastars began as a manga series back in 2016, and in 2019, the story finally hit our small screens and is now one of the best anime series on Netflix, period. And it’s easy to see why so many folks are eager for more episodes. Not only is Beastars one of the best anime for beginners to jump into the genre, but it’s also got a brilliant premise that has hooked us all. So, here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming Beastars season 3 release date, in addition to information about the cast list, plot, and much more.
Beastars season 3 release date speculation
Beastars season 3 has been confirmed and will release sometime in 2024. Looking at previous release patterns for the series, we expect that a May 2024 release window will be announced soon.
Previously, outside of Japan, new seasons of the Netflix anime have debuted between the start and end of spring, and we’re not expecting Beastars season 3 to be any different. A specific release date should be confirmed soon.
While the good news is that Beastars season 3 is definitely coming, there’s some bad news, too: season 3 will be the final season and will end the story of Louis, Legoshi, and Haru. Still, all good things must come to an end, and Beastars has definitely been a good thing.
Who will be in the Beastars season 3 cast?
We’re expecting all of the main cast to return for Beastars season 3, though no official casting announcements have been made. That means, in the English dub, Jonah Scott, Griffin Puatu, and Lara Jill Miller will be back as Legoshi, Louis, and Haru, respectively.
The supporting roles, with the likes of Kibi, Jack, and Dom, will also most likely be the same. It’s also safe to assume that there will be new anime characters and voices joining in on all the fun, too: we’re waiting for official announcements with bated breath.
Here’s the expected Beastars season 3 cast list:
- Jonah Scott as Legoshi
- Griffin Puatu as Louis
- Lara Jill Miller as Haru
- Bryce Papenbrook as Kibi
- Cristina Valenzuela as Sheila
- Ben Diskin as Jack
- Brian Beacock as Dom
Fans can also look forward to Shinichi Matsumi (who directed the first two seasons of the anime) returning for the final chapter. Nao Ootsu is also back with character designing, and Nanami Higuchi is writing the script. The all-star team is back, folks!
What will Beastars season 3 be about?
Beastars season 3 will adapt the Interspecies Relations and Revenge of the Love Failure arcs from the manga, covering chapters 100 – 193 (approximately).
The complicated carnivore/herbivore relationship between Legoshi and Haru will play a major role in all of this, developing our characters as they progress through the season. Meanwhile, as his recovery continues, Louis’s equally complex relationship with his father will be put to the test.
Legoshi is also going to have to cope with the aftermath of his battles, as seen at the end of season 2. He’s also going to be enlisted in the mission to track down and confront the crime kingpin, Melon.
For more details on what season 3 will cover, you can read volumes 12-14 of the manga.
Is there a Beastars season 3 trailer?
There is no Beastars season 3 trailer yet. But, with its release window now confirmed, we’re anticipating a trailer to arrive sometime in early 2024.
As mentioned above, a May 2024 release date is the best estimate for Beastars season 3. So, if our hunch is correct, we will start seeing promotional material a couple of months before then, around April time.
First-look images have already been shared for season 3 (see the picture below). So, a teaser should be with us any day now. Stay tuned for more updates!
How many episodes will be in Beastars season 3?
We’re expecting the number of episodes to increase from previous seasons for Beastars season 3, as there’s a lot of manga left to cover.
While seasons 1 and 2 contained 12 episodes, with season 3 having to deal with two arcs, we think we could see an impressive 24 episodes in Beastars season 3, with a potential mid-season break to divide the two. This is just speculation for now, and an official episode count should be confirmed in the near future.
Where can I watch Beastars season 3?
Beastars season 3 will be released on Netflix in all regions outside of Japan.
You can also check Netflix to catch up with the previous two seasons or do a much-needed rewatch before the new season arrives. Otherwise, there are also plenty of shows and movies new on Netflix this month for you to enjoy as well.
