| Curious to know what will be the trend during this sequel after, "Working conditions were horrible", era. This arc though, they'd have to hire two narrators. |
| Great news, the Culling Game is, IMO, even better than Shibuya and I already love Shibuya enough as it is. Many hype moments in this arc that I absolutely can't wait to see animated. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| Let's goo !!! Great news ＼(◎o◎)／ |
| Great news! Arc consists of more than 60 chapters, so 24-26 episodes to air. |

| @thebrentinator24 Will every blockbuster anime now divide its seasons into arcs to be more detail-oriented and less distracting? |
 |
| I hope it's 20+ episodes again... |

| @RobertBobert Hmmm I doubt every blockbuster will do that, but I suppose I can't say for certain. |

| @RobertBobert, it seems so. |
|
| 3-4, hell even 5 yrs, the workers deserves so much break. The thing is though, Culling Game is very lengthy and I don't even know where they can even end it off. Surely though the manga is ending soon and could finish in 2024-2025 so that's pretty much how I can tell by how much they can adapt later on. |

| @CQLLIST With how greedy is the producers and MAPPA, it will take max 1 year for them to release maybe the next fall season. Don't expect 3-4 years production time, they gonna milk this cow until its dry. |
 |
| I know this arc is divisive, but I'm excited to see what MAPPA can do with t. |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| Mappa pushing the animator's to their absolute limits. I was hoping they would get a break after Season 2, but with this announcement as well as the announcement for the Reze movie, they definitely are not. |

| @Mcdoclin, they will take a break of course, season 3 will air next year, not earlier. |

@Memore Culling game is a pretty lengthy arc, even longer than Shibuya. That's not enough time for the animator's to get a break and be able animate the season at the same time. It is one or the other, and you should know very well which one it will be.
| @Mcdoclin, I don't know, simply hope that they will get enough rest. |
|
| I love it when sequels are announced right away, even in the season finale. I recall an old favorite anime from a while back doing this, but then the Manga-ka stopped creating the source altogether. Oops. |
