Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Season 3: Renewal Status + Release Date Predictions

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Season 3, when will it happen?

Isekai animes are all about reincarnations, whether slime, sword, assassins, or overpowered mages who get transported into a fantasy world brimming with adventures.

While one might wonder what other reincarnations are possible, writer Kumanano comes with a Bear reincarnation outfit for his protagonist in the light novel series titled Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear. 

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear follows the story of Yuna, a carefree 15-year-old NEET who spends most of her day playing her favorite FPV World Fantasy Online game. Although young and lazy, Yuna is too bright for her age as she makes money through the stock market, contributing to her hikikomori life.

Her independent lifestyle reaffirms her belief in not requiring any friends and her dislike for outgoing people. 

Yuna receives a bear costume from the game s’ admin as a gift corresponding to her total hours of gameplay, which she immediately finds embarrassing.

She accepts the gift from the admin and gets transported into a fantasy gaming world that has no point in returning to the real world.

She shockingly finds out her level has reset to the beginning and starts to think it is an in-game bug.

The game s’ admin not only turns out to be God but also informs Yuna that the bear costume will increase her in-game stats and make her character powerful.

Trapped and unable to log out, Yuna decides to explore this new world wherein she gets attacked by a wolf. In trying to save herself, Yuna also saves a 10-year-old girl called Fina.

Yuna is called into action once again as she saves Fina after being attacked by a tiger wolf. Fina takes Yuna to Crimonia City, where the latter stands out due to her overpowered bear outfit as people start calling her “Bloody Bear.”

How Yuna, who was once a loner with no friends, is now an adventurer taking up this new role is the show’s central plot.

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear season one and two were a relative success as some liked the relaxing nature of the show. In contrast, others were critical of the cliché isekai tropes and power gaming mechanics. 

Either way, after the conclusion of the second season, fans have been demanding a third season, so is the Bloody Bear returning?

To find the answer, keep scrolling to find out more on all the latest news and updates on Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Season 3.

Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear is rated 7.2/10 and ranked #2953 with 127k members on MyAnimeList.

Production Studios consider various financial and commercial metrics before announcing a renewal.

As mentioned earlier, Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Season 2, albeit not a top-rated anime of Spring 2023, was received well by fans and critics.

Similar to the first season, the sequel also keeps the viewers intrigued and interested throughout its run, which is reflected in its IMDB user episode ratings.

While the reviews and ratings are mostly in favor, a crucial factor for renewal will be the availability of studio and source material.

Studio EMT Squared has scheduled Fully Paradise to release in 2024, and despite the studio not being renowned for doing renewals, it surely will return with a third installment.

The only point of concern is the production capacity of EMT Squared, which seems to limit them to only maximum two animes per year.

It took three years for the studio to renew for a sequel, thus further evidencing the fact that EMT Squared will once again take its time renewing for season three.

The good news is that there is sufficient source material available for the creators to produce Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Season 3.

All in All, considering the past release schedule, we can expect updates on Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Season 3 trailer and Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Season 3 release date by late 2025.
