The highly anticipated 4th season of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime has had its official broadcast confirmed in Japan. The new arc of the anime will premiere on April 3, 2026, marking the return of Rimuru Tempest in an even more ambitious phase of the story.
The broadcast begins on Nippon TV , within the Friday Anime Night block , with new episodes every Friday at 11 PM (local time), reaching approximately 30 stations in the country. In addition, the anime will also be shown on BS11 , starting April 4th, on Saturdays at 10 PM.
One of the great highlights of this season is its format. Season 4 will have five cours in total , something rare in the current industry. Therefore, the series will have an extended run, allowing for a more detailed development of the plot and its political and military conflicts. Initially, two consecutive cours are confirmed for the premiere.
Meanwhile, production remains under the responsibility of Studio 8 Bit, which has been in charge of animation since previous seasons. Therefore, the expectation is to maintain the visual and narrative standard that has established the anime as one of the most popular in the isekai genre.
Finally, it's worth remembering that schedules are subject to change without prior notice.
