Has anyone heard ANYTHING remotely close to a season 3 and beyond announcement? I'm hankering for any bit of news I can get. It's been over 2 years since season 2 ended. To be honest I expected an announcement at the end of season 2 or even before season ended. This is especially in light of the fact that season 2 got announced BEFORE season 1 ended. And when season 2 ended we got a brief intro to 3 new characters yet to be introduced and Komi's last spoken line could have just been directed at Tadano. But I saw it as it could also have been a loose hint at season 3 confirmed especially as they didn't focus at all on Tadano, except for a half shot from behind him and two from behind Komi: one that doesn't show his face and one that partially shows his face but no eyes and no reaction on his mouth, as Komi statrted speaking (he spoke no lines after his initial good morning and barely reacted to Komi's good morning) and kept the focus on Komi looking at us, the audience, especially with the ending ......"with you" and her opening her eyes and looking directly at us.
Now the manga is entering its final arc and ending. Does anyone think this will get Netflix and OLM Studio moving and inspired to complete the anime and catch up to the manga??
TLDR any news on Season 3 and beyond?

No nothing, no leaks or anything otherwise there would be a discussion about it.
OLM usually does 3-4 anime a year and right now we know they have Apothecary Diaries season 2 in the works for 2025 and nothing else (that I remember), so something else will come out for sure, but it could be anything.

I am reading the manga but I just can't drop my hopes for the anime getting season 3. I love the series as a whole that includes both the anime and the manga and I wanna see both continue. but, alas, the manga has entered its final arc and is ending.
I do appreciate it's been over 2 years since Season 2 ended and appreciate hopes may be dwindling. But another of Netflix's anime got a 3rd season after THIRTEEN years so there's hope in that regard.
On top of that the numbers are good and reviews favourable on sites like here, IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes. The manga has sold well too. As of February this year over 14 million copies are in circulation. So the series is clearly popular and there are more people wanting a season 3 than not with people calling out for a third season multiple times a day. Only thing I don't know is Netflix's viewership numbers but, with everything else I've said above re numbers and popularity taken into consideration, I'm sure viewership was more than adequate to warrant a third season.

It also doesn't make sense for Netflix and OLM to tease new characters and have Komi deliver her line the way she did if they DIDN'T have plans for a 3rd season.

What make you so certain we're not getting season 3? I'm interested to know your thoughts

I'm not certain, it's just that I haven't seen no leaks or news about s3 yet.

That I remember for 2025, OLM only has a second season of Apothecary Diaries in the works and that's it, so something else might come out, however I wouldn't hope too much.

Damn. I have heard rumours about an announcement late 2024 and a release in 2025 so that does add up. But why do you say not to get hopes up?

You really don't have to take any rumors into account since the basic reliability is equal to 0.

@filthyfrank8142

How do you know that it didn't do well there? Why didn't it do well?Everywhere I've read says the anime, and series as a whole, is popular. Plus the ratings, numbers and reviews don't lie. The anime IS popular and manga sales also reflect the popularity of the series

No. Neither have I, unfortunately. Hopefully an announcement is made soon in regards to season 3 the cancellation of the series (better NOT cancel it, Netflix)

I’ve basically lost all hope of season 3. I’d recommend you read the manga. It’s just as good as the anime and actually gets better when the second year starts (imo). I’ve only read till chapter 305 and I’ve enjoyed it quite a lot.

Try and keep that hope alive as, while there's no news of season 3 yet, there's no news of a cancellation either. Another of Netflix's anime just got a season 3 after thirteen years so there's still hope. And they would not have teased 3 new characters if they didn't plan to continue the series.

I'm currently reading the manga via Viz Media's Viz Manga app and plan to get the physical manga asap. I'm up to chapter 222 and am enjoying it massively

Aye. I do too, Now would be the perfect time for season 3 to be announced now that the manga is ending. It's a good opportunity for Netflix and OLM Studio to catch up to and complete the anime adaption of the manga and round off the series as a whole nicely, giving it a nice little send off.

I have a theory that Komi Season 1 & 2 were commissioned as 1 season originally and were split into 2 seasons after a delay of some kind (possibly Pandemic related). It came out in Summer 2021 so a delay in production due to COVID is a realistic possibility. The reason I have this theory is the short time in between seasons, on my Netflix app it doesn't have it as 2 seasons and many shows since COVID have been split cour seasons (part 1 & 2). They may have decided to call it 2 seasons as it is more elegant than calling it 2 parts.

@CelticWitch if you’re referring to kimi ni todoke, I don’t think it was initially owned by Netflix. But ig I should keep hoping that season 3 of Komi san doesn’t take 13 years

There is still no news, and it seems that the production company is in no hurry and is not interested in doing so; unless Netflix intervenes in some way, it will take at least a couple of years for season 3.
