As fans of the hilarious gag manga are likely already aware, Shūichi Asō's gag comedy manga The Disastrous Life Of Saiki K. recently ended its run in Weekly Shonen Jump back in February 2018. However, the sequel returned to its 4-koma (4-panel) roots and shifted from the pages of Shonen Jump to digital-only. It seems this continuation, and a few volumes the 2-season anime from Studio EGG FIRM and J.C. Staff will be the foundation for the anime's continuation. The first two anime seasons total 49 episodes and covered the majority of the original 26 volume manga series.
The original cast and staff are all expected to return for the new series. No word yet on an air date, but like the previous season, North American Netflix subscribers will have to wait until all the episodes have aired in Japan before the series becomes available.
