The Irregular at Magic High School is coming back with a new sequel anime series dropping next year! Tsutomu Sato’s original The Irregular at Magic High School light novel series came to an end a few years ago, but fans of the anime have thankfully been able to see the franchise continue with new entries. The second season of The Irregular at Magic High School anime took on the Visitor Arc a few years ago, and was continued with an anime special for the Reminiscence Arc shortly after. But fans had been eagerly anticipating a potential full third season of the TV anime ever since.ย
