What is it about?
Urano Motosu is a huge bookworm and reading is her great passion. Her dream of becoming a librarian was soon to be fulfilled but an earthquake takes this dream away from her, as she’s crushed to death beneath a pile of books in her house. As she draws her last breath, she wishes to be able to read books forever in her next life. She wakes up reincarnated in the body of a five-year-old girl, Myne, and finds herself in a world where books are extremely rare, and only available to elites. Since Urano’s memories are intact and she’s just as passionate about reading as before, she thinks that the book-lacking issue can be solved by her, and she decides to write and print her own works.
New studio is working on the series now
Season 4 of the anime was announced by the WIT Studio on December 6, 2023, and it’s going to cover Part 3: Adopted Daughter of an Archduke. Fans call the WIT Studio taking over this project a huge upgrade for the series, and are super hyped. They’re confident in the studio and have high hopes that it will provide the adaptation Ascendance of a Bookworm truly deserves. All the further details, however, are yet to be revealed, but we’re nothing if not patient.
Ascendance of a Bookworm fans truly love the series and they are hyped for the new portion of the story being animated. Although they admit that the story starts rather slowly, they beg you to give it a chance, since it has plenty to fascinate you with. They especially emphasize the worldbuilding, saying that it’s just incredible.
Moreover, novel readers mention that the first three seasons of the anime were just the prequel, and the real story is going to start in the next season, so they expect people to fall even more in love with Ascendance of a Bookworm after it’s out.
