Re:Zero Season 3 Director Teases the Anime's New Era

The director behind Re:Zero Season 3 is teasing a new era for the anime!

Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World- will be returning to screens with the highly anticipated Season 3 of the anime later this Fall, and the director behind it all is teasing the new start for the anime! Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World- left things on a fairly significant cliffhanger when the second season of the TV anime wrapped up its run some time ago, but thankfully the wait for what's next will soon be over with the upcoming release of the third season. But as fans wait to see what's next, the director behind it all is teasing the anime's future as well. 

Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World- Season 3 will feature Masahiro Shinohara as the director (who contributed to episodes of the anime in the past) and in a recent interview noted that along with pushing for an extended 90 minute run time for the premiere episode (to have fans say that the anime is back in full), but teases what's next for this new era of the series with the following, "As we focus on production right now, we're following the lead of past seasons while also pushing ourselves to explore new creative frontiers."
