Is Season 4 of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Confirmed?

Yes, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 4 has been officially confirmed! The announcement came on September 27, 2024, immediately following the Season 3 finale, alongside news of a second anime film. Bandai Namco Filmworks shared a promotional video and visual to celebrate the announcement, sparking excitement across the anime community. While specific details remain limited, the confirmation assures fans that Rimuru’s journey will continue.

When Will Season 4 Be Released?

As of now, no official release date for Season 4 has been announced. However, based on the production timeline of previous seasons, fans can speculate a release window. Season 3 was announced in November 2022 and premiered in April 2024, suggesting a roughly 1.5-year gap between announcement and release. Given the Season 4 announcement in September 2024, a premiere in Spring 2026 (April–June) is a reasonable estimate, aligning with the anime’s typical seasonal schedule. Some sources suggest a potential release as early as early 2026, but delays could push it to 2027.

What Will the Plot of Season 4 Be About?

Season 4 is expected to pick up where Season 3 left off, adapting volumes 10–12 of Fuse’s light novel series. Season 3 covered the Saint and Monster Arc, Territory Seizure Arc, and the Founder’s Festival Arc, concluding around volume 9. Season 4 will likely begin with The Majin Behind the Scenes Arcwhere Rimuru aims to join the Council of the West, facing opposition and brewing conflicts. Expect more action and political intrigue, with demon lords targeting those close to Rimuru, setting the stage for tense confrontations. Fans of the light novels note that Season 4 will feature more exciting events and less of the meeting-heavy pacing seen in Season 3, promising a thrilling payoff for the setup established earlier.
