List of KonoSuba episodes
KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World! is an anime television series based on the light novels of the same title written by Natsume Akatsuki and illustrated by Kurone Mishima. The series follows the adventures of Kazuma Satou who, after he dies of a heart attack after pushing a girl out of the way of a truck, which turned out to be a tractor, is sent to an RPG-like world, going on various adventures alongside a goddess named Aqua, a magician named Megumin, and a dame named Darkness.
With animation production by Studio Deen, the series was directed by Takaomi Kanasaki and written by Makoto Uezu with character designs by Koichi Kikuta.[1] The first two seasons, respectively aired from January 14 to March 17, 2016, and January 11 to March 16, 2017, adapt the first four volumes of the light novels. The anime series was later followed by the J.C.Staff-produced animated film KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World! Legend of Crimson, which released on August 30, 2019, and adapts the fifth volume.
A third season and an anime series adaptation of the light novel spin-off trilogy An Explosion on This Wonderful World! was announced in May 2022.[2] Both were handled by Drive, which replaced Studio Deen as the series animation producer. An Explosion on This Wonderful World! aired from April 6 to June 22, 2023. The third season aired from April 10 to June 19, 2024, and adapted the sixth and seventh volumes.[3]
