Blue Exorcist Season 3 Predictions
Unfortunately, there has been no news yet regarding a potential third season for Blue Exorcist. It has been five years since Season 2 was released and fans are hoping to see the continuation of the shonen anime on screen. The manga is still ongoing so there is a lot of content available to adapt. But ultimately, that decision will depend on the show’s creators. Sometimes, the success of the previous season is also considered, in addition to the demand for and popularity of the series. To its credit, Blue Exorcist received great feedback from critics. The manga’s seventh volume was also the first print to have one million copies on Jump Square, which is a huge milestone. Although, fans have noticed that the official Twitter account of Blue Exorcist no longer promotes the series, so this might spell bad news for those who are still waiting for the anime’s third season. Fans should not be too worried though as some sequels do take long to get produced. Want the latest on all things anime? Make sure you follow us on Twitter!
