86 Season 3 Rumors Heat Up as Fans Beg for More!
Anime fans are getting excited again after new rumors appeared online about 86 getting a third season. According to social media chatter, A-1 Pictures may have already green-lit 86 Season 3 — but nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
Fans on Reddit, especially in the r/EightySix community, are hopeful but cautious. One user said there’s still “no current word on it,” while another joked about being a time traveler from the future who’s already seen Season 3. The tone online is filled with excitement, even if it's mixed with a bit of doubt.
There’s a strong reason behind the excitement: so far, only 3 out of 13 volumes of the 86 light novel series have been adapted into anime. That means there’s plenty of story left to animate — possibly enough for several seasons. Many fans believe the rest of the novels are just as powerful, touching on emotional themes like war, discrimination, and tough moral choices.
On TikTok, hashtags like #86Season3 and #EightySix are filled with videos, countdowns, and speculation about when the next season might arrive. Even though no release date has been given, fans are clearly ready for more.
The first two parts of the anime aired between April 2021 and March 2022, and fans loved its storytelling, characters, and deep messages. That’s why they’re eager to see the next part of Lena and Shin’s journey brought to life.
Although A-1 Pictures or the rights holders haven’t said anything official yet, the buzz online is louder than ever. Many fans feel it's only a matter of time before 86 Season 3 is confirmed — especially since the anime is popular and there’s so much material still left to cover.
For now, it’s a waiting game. But one thing is clear: fans aren’t ready to say goodbye to 86 just yet.
