I'm very hyped to watch the October anime season Seirei Gensouki: Spirit Chronicles Season 2 and Re: Zero - Starting Life in Another World Season 3

Oh only took them like....some time.

It was basically a tossup between july or october, but october it is then.

Surprisingly only one new cast member. For now.

I mean, after what happened in s1, we already have all four girls introduced in s1. Not sure how long they can resist before introducing more girls though, and there are other girls than the main four shown in the visual

Celia definitely looks the most different, the other three seem to be wearing the exact same thing as s1 and mr mc as well. Though uh. Was his hair always like that?

Shrug.
