Fire Force is finally returning with a third season after more than four years since Season 2 ended. The anime is famous for its unique blend of shonen action and supernatural elements in a post-apocalyptic world. Based on Atsushi Ookubo’s manga, Fire Force is set in a world where spontaneous human combustion turns people into fiery monsters called Infernals, who lose their sense of self and cause chaos. It’s the job of specialized fire soldiers, known as the Fire Force, who are responsible for fighting those monsters and putting them to rest. Almost all the soldiers have pyrokinetic abilities, allowing them to control and manipulate flames in unique ways.

The story follows Shinra Kusakabe, a young firefighter rookie with a tragic past who plans to uncover the truth behind the fire that killed his family 12 years ago. He is able to ignite his feet at will, earning him the nickname โDevilโs Footprints.โ The third season will continue to unravel the mystery behind the world as the fire soldiers find themselves in peril with new and powerful villains. The first two seasons of Fire Force are available on Crunchyroll, Hulu, and Netflix. The franchise recently confirmed that Fire Force Season 3 will stream on Hulu, but now it has announced another streaming home for the show with Netflix confirming the season to come in 2025.
