“Spy Classroom” is a mystery-fantasy anime series that just concluded its latest season on Crunchyroll.
After watching 12 gripping episodes of season 2, fans are curious about the future of this anime. So, here’s everything we know about the upcoming third season of “Spy Classroom.”
The anime revolves around Lily, a skilled young girl who aspires to be a spy. However, her emotional vulnerabilities make this dream seem far-fetched.
That changes when she gets an invitation to join the elite spy team, Lamplight. Upon joining, she encounters six other girls, each with their own unique flaws.
Together, they operate under their leader, Klaus, on a daring mission to infiltrate a criminal organization known as the “Galgad Empire.” The stakes rise in the second season when some Lamplight members are abducted, prompting the team to formulate rescue plans.
The second season aired from July 13, 2023, to September 28, 2023. It was animated by the well-known “feel.” studio, noted for animating popular rom-coms like “Oregairu” and “Tsuki ga Kirei.”
Will there be Season 3 of Spy Classroom?
Currently, there’s no official confirmation of a third season for “Spy Classroom.” The anime didn’t make the cut for the Highest Rated Anime Series of Summer 2023, suggesting it’s not a fan favorite.
For the latest updates, you can follow the series’ official Twitter account or keep an eye on Anime Expo 2024, where new seasons often get announced. The event is set for July 4-7, 2024, in Los Angeles, California.

Is there enough Source Material For Spy Classroom Season 3?
The anime is based on a light novel series by Takemachi, with illustrations by Tomari. With ten volumes available and the second season covering volumes 4-6, there’s sufficient source material for a third season.
The light novel also spawned a manga adaptation illustrated by Kaname Seu. Both the light novel and the first part of the manga have been officially translated into English by “Yen Press.”
You can buy both the light novel and manga on Amazon (light novel, manga).
Potential Release Date For Season 3?
Since the third season of Spy Classroom is yet to be announced, there’s no official release date for the anime adaptation as of now. However, we can make some educated guesses about when a new season might arrive.
If a third season does get the green light, it’s unlikely to hit the screens before the Fall of 2024. Given that it usually takes around 12 to 18 months to produce a quality anime season, this timeline seems plausible.
Reception of Season 3
The anime has a modest but dedicated fanbase, earning average ratings on platforms like MyAnimeList (7.1/10), AniList (6.9/10), and HiDive (4.5/10). It also ranked 17th on Anitrendz’s Weekly Popularity Polls.
Upcoming character figurines for Lily and Annette, available from April 3, 2024, to May 29, 2024, offer a glimmer of hope for season 3.
Light Novel Sales
The light novel series didn’t make it to Oricon’s Top 30 Best Selling Light Novels or Amazon’s Top 50 Best Selling Fantasy Action & Adventure Books.
The series’ future may now depend on its Blu-ray & DVD sales, scheduled from October 15, 2023, to December 22, 2023, available in two separate box set volumes.
Where to Watch Spy Classroom Season 3?
Unfortunately, Crunchyroll didn’t stream either of the seasons of “Spy Classroom.” So, you can use streaming websites like bilibili, Amazon Prime Video, and HiDive to stream the potential third sequel of this series.
There you have it: Everything you need to know about the third season of Spy Classroom. Be sure to keep your tabs on the Blu-ray release dates, as they will decide if this series will get a sequel again or not.
