Re:ZERO Season 4 Tops Weekly Rankings for Eight Consecutive Weeks in Spring 2026
Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Season 4 became one of the most talked-about productions of the spring 2026 period. The series, which achieved first place for a total of eight weeks including its final episode in Anime Corner's weekly rankings, ranked among the most popular anime of the season by a wide margin. This success once again proved the impact of Re:ZERO on its audience, especially during the highly competitive spring 2026 season.
Produced by White Fox studio and based on the light novel series of the same name by Tappei Nagatsuki, Re:ZERO made a big debut with its first season in 2016. The second season aired in 2020-2021, and the third season in 2024-2025. The fourth season deepened the story with new enemies faced by Subaru Natsuki and clues about Emilia's past. The surprising developments in the final episode, in particular, were talked about on social media for days.
According to Anime Corner's data, Re:ZERO Season 4 outperformed its competitors not only in audience votes but also in discussion intensity and anticipation index. The production, which ranked in the top three every week throughout the season, managed to attract attention during a period when giants like Attack on Titan: Final Season and Jujutsu Kaisen were not airing. This success shows that the series still has a large fan base and that the story becomes more complex with each passing season.
So what's next? The light novel series is still ongoing, and Nagatsuki hinted in previous interviews that there is enough material for a fifth season. Although White Fox has not made an official announcement, fans are expecting news of a new season around 2027 or 2028. This unique time-loop story of Re:ZERO represents a level of loyalty and quality rarely seen in the anime industry. For now, we have only this impressive ranking success, but one thing is certain: Subaru's painful journey is not over yet.
