So far, Isekai Quartet’s first two seasons have seen characters from the franchises like Overlord, Konosuba: God’s Blessing on This Wonderful World, Re:Zero: Starting Life in Another World, The Rising of The Shield Hero, Cautious Hero: The Hero is Overpowered but Overly Cautious, and The Saga of Tanya The Evil. For the upcoming third season, the runaway hit known as Eminence in Shadow is joining the gang, sure to throw in quite a few curveballs into the anime itself as a result. While a specific release date has yet to be revealed, Isekai Quartet has unleashed a new trailer to give anime fans a better idea of what is to come that you can check out below.
The Quartet Expands
Luckily, if you have yet to catch up Isekai Quartet, the first two seasons are available to stream on Crunchyroll. Here’s how the streaming service describes the wild crossover series, “The button appeared out of nowhere. There weren’t any signs NOT to push it…so the solution is obvious, right? Is it a trap or the start of something new and exciting? The crews of Re:Zero, Overlord, Konosuba, and The Saga of Tanya the Evil will find out when they go from their world to another and get stuck in…class?! See what adorable chaos they’ll get up to in this collection of shorts!”
Not only does the series focus on pre-established Isekai characters, Isekai Quartet also brings back the original voice actors from each anime to reclaim their roles. For example, Satoshi Hino plays Overlord’s Ains, Jun Fukushima plays Konosuba’s Kazuma, Yusuke Kobayashi plays Re:Zero’s Subaru, and more. For the upcoming introduction of Eminence in Shadow, Seiichiro Yamashita will once again step into the shoes of Cid Kagenou, aka Shadow.
As mentioned previously, the isekai genre has become a big mover and shaker in the anime world, routinely producing some of the biggest anime series. At present, there are still plenty of franchises that have not been made a part of the Quartet, with some key examples being Sword Art Online, Inuyasha, and That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime. Fingers crossed that we’ll witness more isekai favorites arriving in this comedy series moving forward.
