Ice is a reliable leaker afaik, and he said that S3 would be announced at Animejapan some time ago, and now he seems to have gotten inside info that S3 won't be 24 eps. Since he's an official translator of the LN I'm pretty confident he know what he's talking about when he says the episode count will be satisfactory for everyone which should mean the stopping point isn't abrupt, possibly even the pacing but it's too soon to tell. Re:Zero is white fox's golden goose passion project and I'm sure they won't jinx it.

37 episodes would be ideal with the ammount of material they’re planning to cover

35-40 episodes should be plenty to cover both Arc 5&6. If we get until 50 episodes it would be even better but less likely and yeah, 24 eps ain't enough and rush the hell out of both arcs especially Arc 6 which I considered the greatest storytelling arc in Re Zero as of now

If ice says so then it's a relief and i just hope they don't do it in split cour pattern and give us episode back to back and for that they can take as much as time as they want...

I believe the OP means that it's going to be more than 24 episodes, as for now everyone believes that arc 5 and 6 are both going to be season 3 as a whole

Why are so many people thinking this is more than just arc 5. It will probably just be a single cour covering that arc. If not it will be split cour anyways so it'll be 12/13 episodes to cover arc 5 with another season 3 part 2 with more etc.

It's definitely not gonna be 12 eps. Quite certainly it will be more than 24 eps but  not 35 eps (because that's what Ice said). So, my guess it would be either 30 extended eps or 40-50 non extended eps. The former case has the highest chances I would say.

Dude, were you even paying attention, about what Ice said. He said arc 5 completely and atleast a good enough portion of arc 6 (might even complete full), will be adapted as is clearly visible from the key visual. Also, he said that everyone will be satisfied will be SATISFIED with the episode count, but it's not 35 eps (most likely less than that), but not 24 eps either(since he says everyone will be satisfied with the count, it will be quite certainly more 24 eps). I don't know whether the season will be split in cours or not but it will most certainly be of atleast 30 extended eps overall, since that's the least one would require to cover complete arc 5 and arc 6 partially with good pacing. Don't forget even though arc 5 is heavily action oriented, still vol 16 and quite a big portion of the other volumes focus on very strong character development. All that can't be rushed and would require a good amount of time for the complete adaptation.

Why would they stop early in arc 6? Every single arc 6 character is on there and one of those characters isn't even shown until the last volume of arc 6.

Oh right my bad. U have actually made a valid point. That part just skipped my mind. But, then that would validate my point even more. I mean if it's complete arc 6 then, even 30 extended eps might not be enough. Then it might be 40-50 eps in that case.

I don't think it will be 40-50 episodes. They can fit it with 34, 29 minute 30 second episodes. That's 16 hours of watch time, which is almost about 48 episodes of 22 minute episodes. Judging from what Ice said, there is gonna probably be a white fox studio collaboration and if they continue their norm of big episodes cutting the op / ed, I will have no worries. Sometimes cuts are good.

Well, MHA will like to disagree with that. There might less number of full 24 ep anime, but they haven't completely gone extinct. And, since Re:zero is more of a passion project for White and they won't be doing anything else in the meantime. The chances of a complete season is even higher.

Yeah completely agree with that point. White fox definitely knows their stuff and they will also be getting help from some other studio. As long as the end product is good with not much cut content and good pacing, they can take as much time or ep as they want.

MHA was from an age where shows actually went longer than 12 episodes so it's just the last remnants of when the anime industry actually cared about something more than just the bare minimum to get manga sales.

so that can only mean they will do the whole arc 5. If it is not 24 it is still round that many unless they will go by the standard 24 minutes with op and ed almost every episode.

Yeah, you have got most parts correctly.Even tho both Arc 5 and Arc 6 are of 5 volumes each, Arc 5 is heavily action oriented (which also means that the studio will need to put some real effort in this). Since, it's mostly action it can be properly animated with about 15 extended episodes. It also has the highest character development of all existing characters in any Arc, so not much can be cut from here either. And, arc 6 is again mostly focused on thriller/mystery/psychological, which is more true to the original Re zero theme. This is most likely the best arc till now, so they definitely can't cut much from here at all. So, overall if they want to provide a complete experience with very less cut scenes and good pacing, 35-40 extended eps would be the best bet.

Same here lol. I'm an anime only yet it looks like everyone who replied to me assumed I'm a reader too, looks like there's lots of readers out there

They seem pretty unfazed about having an unconventional number of episodes... it's so rare for anime to get above 24eps, so I'm kinda skeptical. But here's hoping they're all correct.

2025 - Cour 2 (12-13 episodes) - The rest of arc 6 23 - 25

I still think it will be 3 Cours but delay can maybe 6 Months instead 1 Years. 

1 Cour would be the best but probably impossible for current anime industry.
