Fire Force put the heat on fans after season two ended, but netizens endured the burn as they awaited news on season three. At last, confirmation came this month that Fire Force would carry on, and social media was quick to celebrate the announcement. And now, series creator Atsushi Ohkubo is ready to hype the anime’s comeback with his own poster.

The artwork comes from Ohkubo himself if you look over on Twitter. The artist’s official page posted a digital painting of Shinra Kusakabe in all his firefighting glory. And of course, fans were all too happy to see the hero in light of season three’s announcement.

After all, the anime kept quiet about its future for quite a while. Season one began in July 2019 before season two followed the next summer. Many expected season three to debut in 2021, but no new episodes came to be. Now, Fire Force has reassured fans a new season is coming, and it seems likely David Production is banking on a 2023 release.

“Tokyo is burning, and citizens are mysteriously suffering from spontaneous human combustion all throughout the city! Responsible for snuffing out this inferno is the Fire Force, and Shinra is ready to join their fight. Now, as part of Company 8, he’ll use his devil’s footprints to help keep the city from turning to ash! But his past and a burning secret behind the scenes could set everything ablaze.”
