- Solo Leveling: 2nd Season of the anime announced
Therefore, the leaked episode is only available with English subtitles on Nyaa, the popular website dedicated to anime piracy.
The leak of this episode generated a big surprise among fans, because although it has happened in the past, it is not something very common to see. However, all of this raises an important question: where is the security in the distribution of digital content and what will Japan think when it finds out?
According to sources on X (Twitter), this first leaked episode sparked debates on social media about the ethics of consuming pirated content. Additionally, some fans express concern about the possible impact this incident could have on how Japanese companies want to distribute anime in the West.
Although the reason for this incident has not yet been confirmed, some point to a possible vulnerability in the Crunchyroll streaming platform, which continues to use servers from the now-defunct Funimation.
Therefore, the 3rd season of KonoSuba 3 continues with the direction of Takaomi Kanyasaki at the animation studio Drive , while Makoto Uezu takes over the script. In addition, Yujiro Abe also joins the direction, working together with Kanyasaki.
Synopsis:
After a traffic accident, Kazuma Sato's brief and disappointing life should have ended, but he wakes up and sees a beautiful girl standing before him. So she says she is Aqua, a goddess, and asks him if he would like to go to another world, taking with him just one thing from this world.
In 2013, KonoSuba's story reached its conclusion, and the version published by Kadokawa reached its conclusion in 2020. Finally, Panini publishes the manga that adapts the novel.
