With the release date revelation, they also announced that the scripts are done and that the fights in the new series will be even more intense.
In the virtual edition of the Crunchyroll expo an official synopsis was also released saying, “As Naofumi, Raphtalia, and Filo are getting new companions, they’re also encountering a new enemy.
