October 2026 is the locked Season 3 window — third Fall cour in a row
The new Ranma ½ anime’s Season 3 starts in October 2026 on NTV, with Netflix exclusivity after each broadcast. The March 26, 2026 site/PV drop stamped the month. Until a premiere day prints, keep the countdown on October.
Do not set this alarm on the 1989–92 Ranma episode guide
Takahashi’s classic TV run already finished decades ago. This page is the MAPPA reboot’s third season — same cursed springs energy, new production stack, returning legacy VAs. Mixing “when did Ranma Season 3 air in the ’90s” into this countdown is the wrong shelf.
How the remake seasons have lined up so far
- Season 1 — Oct–Dec 2024 (MAPPA / Uda; Netflix after NTV).
- Season 2 — Oct–Dec 2025 (same pipeline).
- Season 3 announced — Mar 26, 2026 with teaser PV.
- Season 3 premiere — October 2026 (this page; day TBA).
Three straight October cours is the remake’s scheduling signature
Most reboots scatter seasons across the calendar. This Ranma line has owned Fall: 2024, 2025, and now 2026. Mark October for the next Tendo dojo chaos — and expect the Netflix drop to follow the NTV night, not a separate vague “Fall window” inventing a different month.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about this release date.
1When does Ranma ½ Season 3 (2024 remake) premiere?
October 2026 on Nippon TV, then exclusive Netflix streaming right after broadcast. Day not locked — October 1 placeholders are month anchors until NTV prints a night.
2Is this the 1989 classic or the new MAPPA show?
The new anime (often tagged 2024 remake). Season 1 ran Fall 2024; Season 2 Fall 2025; Season 3 continues that MAPPA / Uda pipeline. Do not merge with the 1989–92 Kitty Films calendar.
3Who is making Season 3?
MAPPA with Kōnosuke Uda returning as director. Core cast/staff largely return — including Kappei Yamaguchi and Megumi Hayashibara as male/female Ranma and Noriko Hidaka as Akane.
4Where can I watch it outside Japan?
Netflix has the exclusive post-broadcast window for this remake line, same model as Seasons 1–2. Regional Netflix drop timing usually tracks the NTV air closely.
