“Konosuba Season 3 ” Publish staff information – Original Author: Natsume Akatsuki (published by Kadokawa Sneaker Bunko) Original illustration: Kurone Mishima, General Director: Takaomi Kanazaki, Director: Yujiro Abe, Series Composition: Makoto Uezu Character Design: Koichi Kikuta Animation Production: Drive.”

Studio Drive is a fairly new studio that has previously worked on Vlad Love, and Actors: Songs Connection. They are also currently working on the Uzumaki Anime and the second season for To Your Eternity.

Despite the change in studios, the third season will still have the same director as the previous two seasons, Takaomi Kanasaki.

Studio Dive will also be working on a Konosuba spin-off series called KonoSuba: An Explosion on This Wonderful World which will star fan-favorite character Megumin.

This is based on the light novel spin-off of the same name. The anime explores Megumin’s past and how she became obsessed and learned explosion magic before the start of the main plot.
