The upcoming OVA, titled Konosuba: God’s Blessing on This Wonderful World! 3 – Bonus Stage, comprises two episodes that didn’t air during the third season, which premiered in April 2024.

The teaser trailer showcases snippets from these unreleased episodes, highlighting a new antagonist and a dire situation in the protagonists’ village. The trio—Kazuma, Darkness, and Megumin—are tasked with neutralizing a monstrous threat, which appears as a destructive tornado. Kazuma’s clever schemes, Megumin’s explosive magic, and Darkness’ unorthodox combat style are set to take center stage. Aqua, as always, is likely to contribute her signature chaotic interference in an attempt to help.
Special Features and Storyline Details
The two episodes, Red Stream Explosion! and Beware of Fakes!, will focus on a short story arc involving a new “villain of the week.” While episodic in nature, the OVA aims to deepen the adventures of Kazuma’s rag-tag crew. Viewers can expect plenty of humor, action, and the quirky character interactions that define the Konosuba series.
The Blu-ray and DVD releases will include exclusive bonus content, such as written material by the series’ creator, Natsume Akatsuki. The theatrical release also offers an early opportunity for fans in Japan to purchase these discs before they hit retail stores.
A Continued Legacy for Konosuba
Season 3 of Konosuba marked a change in animation studios, with J.C. Staff taking over from Studio DEEN. Despite initial skepticism, the season was a resounding success, and the OVA is expected to maintain the high quality of animation and storytelling.
International fans eagerly await news of a global release, as no official date has been announced for territories outside Japan. In the meantime, viewers can catch up on the series via Crunchyroll, which streams all seasons, OVAs, and the Legend of Crimson film.
With Konosuba Season 3 OVA – Bonus Stage, fans will get a chance to revisit the chaotic yet endearing world of Kazuma and his companions in what promises to be another delightful installment of the beloved anime.
