Netflix has a range of survival thrillers, but not everyone reaches the height of Alice in Borderlands. This gripping Japanese drama has made its fan base globally, and after the success of two back-to-back seasons, once again fans are set to get a new season of Alice in Borderland. The exact launch date isn't yet stated, but it will come sometime in September this year.
Fans must have remembered the intense conclusion of Season 2 that concluded with the protagonists Arisu and Usagi appearing in what appeared to be the real world. Now, fans are all curious to see how the story unfolds. Even without saying, the upcoming season will bring new challenges, deeper mysteries, and the introduction of intriguing characters for sure to expand the universe.
The storyline is indeed something that fans are curious about, but more than that, they are curious about the cast. The previous cast of the series is extremely popular. Therefore, the curiosity about the actors to be featured in the upcoming season is natural.
Well, in season 3 , fans will find some familiar faces along with some new joiners. The leading cast is still the same. So, once again in Season 3, fans will see Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya reprising their roles as Ryohei Arisu and Yuzuha Usagi, respectively.
As expected, their chemistry and resilience have been central to the series’ popularity, and their return ensures that the narrative will continue the story from the point it was initially left. Though not confirmed, it is expected that Nijiro Murakami will also return to the show as one of the most appealing characters, Shuntaro Chishiya. His strategic mind and calm demeanor have made him one of the most fan-favorite characters.
Besides him, Aya Asahina may also assume her role as Hikari Kuina in Season 3 and bring her strength and loyalty to give a new touch to the storyline. In the last season, it seems to have sealed Mira Kano's fate, the character played by Riisa Naka, but there are hints that she may appear, possibly in a different form or through flashbacks, thus further complicating the mystery . Season 3 will introduce an ominous Joker Card.
The teaser has already shown a glimpse of this card, which has already created a wave of speculation among fans. Most fans take it as a signal for a new season to begin for the deadly games. The teaser that showed the Joker card revealed a poster that showed Arisu and Usagi facing a towering structure adorned with the Joker symbol.
This is a subtle hint of unprecedented challenges waiting for them in the future. Season 3 will unfold these challenges. Additionally, a mysterious figure in a wheelchair glimpsed in the promotions has fueled speculation about new characters stepping into the series.
Well, nothing is known about this person’s role in the upcoming season, and their name is also kept secret to build the suspense. However, anticipation says they will play a significant role in Alice in Borderland Season 3 . Director Shinsuke Sato said that this new season will take fans to places where there are going to be more complicated games and psychological aspects.
Also, he promised plenty of new things for the series, including the reappearance of the Three of Clubs game, which was from the original manga and was omitted from the live-action adaptation. As Alice in Borderland begins to take in the show beyond its original manga, it is expected that fans will see some new stories appear in Season 3, with new characters making the show a lot more interesting. It will probably present challenging situations for the protagonists that they never ever thought of.
One thing is for sure: the return of familiar faces, along with some mysteriously new ones that turn up, means this next season is set to be an exciting continuation of the saga..
