MPAPER – Based on the latest information, To Your Eternity Season 3 is officially confirmed to premiere in October 2025, continuing the emotionally powerful journey of Fushi and his eternal quest for understanding humanity. This highly anticipated third season promises to deliver the same heart-wrenching storytelling and profound themes that have made the series a standout in modern anime.
What Is To Your Eternity?
To Your Eternity (Fumetsu no Anata e) is a fantasy drama anime based on the manga by Yoshitoki Ōima, which began serialization in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine in November 2016. The story follows an immortal entity known simply as “It” that can take the form of anything that touches it and resurrect after death. Beginning as a simple orb, “It” evolves through various forms – from a rock to a wolf to eventually becoming a human boy named Fushi.
The series explores profound themes of life, death, connection, and what it means to be human through Fushi’s journey across different time periods and encounters with various characters. Each season has been praised for its unique storytelling approach and emotional depth that resonates with viewers long after watching.
Season 3 Premiere Details
The third season of To Your Eternity is scheduled to premiere in October 2025, continuing the “Present World” arc from the manga. This will mark the first time the series ventures into contemporary times, shifting from the historical and post-apocalyptic settings of the previous seasons.
According to recent announcements, the season will air on NHK General in Japan and stream globally on Crunchyroll simultaneously with its Japanese broadcast. The season is expected to consist of 22 episodes, maintaining the pacing that allowed previous seasons to develop their emotional narratives thoroughly.
Cast and Characters
The voice cast for Season 3 continues to expand with several notable additions:
Returning cast members include Reiji Kawashima as Fushi, with Kenjiro Tsuda also reprising his role. New additions to the voice cast include:
- Hikaru Tōno as Saki
- Riko Aono as Fūna
- Yui Kondō as Nagisa
- Sachi Kokuryū as Kasabe
These new characters appear to be classmates of Mizuha, who was introduced in the second season. Additional cast announcements have revealed Shizuka Itō, Shinichirō Miki, Rumi Ōkubo, and Tasuku Hatanaka joining the ensemble.
Production Details
Studio Drive returns as the animation studio for the third season, having taken over from Brain’s Base after the first season. The production team includes many returning staff members who helped establish the distinctive visual style and emotional tone of the series.
The opening theme song for Season 3 will be performed by the renowned Japanese pop group Perfume, with the song titled “Fumetsu no Anata” (Your Eternity) specifically composed for the anime by their longtime producer Yasutaka Nakata. Interestingly, this marks Perfume’s final musical contribution before their announced indefinite hiatus beginning in 2026.
Story Arc and Expectations
Season 3 will adapt the “Present World” arc from the manga, which takes place in contemporary times and introduces new characters like Mizuha, a junior high school girl. The main visual released for the season depicts a warm scene at a dining table in the Aoki household, suggesting a focus on domestic life and human connections.
This shift to modern times represents a significant evolution in the series’ narrative approach. While previous seasons explored historical periods and post-apocalyptic futures, the contemporary setting will allow the series to examine how Fushi’s immortal perspective interacts with modern society and relationships.
Manga creator Yoshitoki Ōima expressed excitement about this new direction, stating that she loves all the characters so much that she wanted them all included in the promotional visual.
