Ascendance Of A Bookworm Season 4 Release Date & Status

The third season consists of 10 episodes, each around 25 minutes long. No official announcement about the next season has been made yet. Ajia-do Animation Works and its partners haven’t given any updates on the release date either.

When it comes to releasing sequels, adaptation potential is key. Since the series is one of the top rated shows in the Isekai genre, there is definitely a lot of potential in releasing a sequel. So, the producers are sure to renew the series soon.

Another important factor in releasing a sequel is the availability of source material. Based on Miya Kazuki’s light novel series, the anime has covered two out of five parts, or roughly seven volumes. With three more parts and 500+ chapters left, source material isn’t lacking.

Ajia-do Animation Works might consider releasing the new season in 2024, given their release pattern.

Is There Enough Source Material For A Sequel?

The ongoing light novel series Ascendance of a Bookworm has a total of 32 volumes, currently in 2023. The first three seasons of the anime covered the story until Part 2, Volume 4 of the light novel.

There are a total of five parts to the novel, so we still have three more parts left for renewal. Therefore, season 4 of Ascendance of a Bookworm has more than enough source material.

The fourth season will begin adapting the LN from Part 3, Volume 1. Also, if you can’t wait for the next season and want to pick up the LN, this is where you need to start.

Which Light Novel Volumes Will Be Covered In Season 4?

Instead of going by “volumes,” the Honzuki no Gekokujou light novel goes by “Parts.” In 2023, the author will have released a total of five parts, and the anime adaptation covered the story until Part 2 of the LN.

So, the third season of Ascendance Of A Bookworm will begin the story from Part 3, Volume 1. Since there are a lot of chapters in this part, we can expect season 3 to cover at least half of LN Part 3.

What Will Happen In Ascendance Of A Bookworm Season 4?

In Ascendance Of a Bookworm Season 3’s finale, “Blessing,” Myne agrees to be adopted by Sylvester to protect her family. During a clash between Ferdinand and Sir Bindewald, Sylvester enters the chapel with Sir Karstedt. This endeavor’s effects extend beyond Myne, involving Count Bindewald, the priest, and Delia.

The anime’s first three seasons covered Parts 1 and 2 of the light novel. Ascendance Of a Bookworm Season 4 begins with adapting Part 3.

As Myne becomes “Rozemyne” following her adoption by Ehrenfest’s archduke, Season 4 advances characters and plotlines. As she embraces nobility, adjusting becomes challenging. Educating children and knights adds complexity to her life. However, as usual, reading books provides her with the satisfaction and comfort she needs to deal with her new life.

When it comes to her business endeavors, Rozemyne finally launches her print machine for mass book production, realizing her long-held dream.

Which Studio Will Animate Honzuki no Gekokujou 4?

Ascendance of a Bookworm is Studio Ajia-do’s most famous work. This Japanese animation studio adapted all three seasons of the anime series. Since they are getting more popularity and praise because of the anime, they are sure to continue adapting the new season of Honzuki no Gekokujou.

Studio Ajia-do has been in the animation industry since 1978, making them one of the oldest players in the Japanese animation game. They’ve been responsible for several popular shows like “Monster Incident”, Kakushigoto,” and “How Not to Summon a Demon Lord.”

Given their expertise and experience in creating anime series, we can surely expect the upcoming season of Ascendance of a Bookworm to be a hit!
