About Fire Force
Fire Force is based on Atsushi Okubo’s manga of the same name. The series is set in a world where spontaneous human combustion turns people into destructive, fiery creatures known as Infernals. To combat this phenomenon, special firefighting squads called Fire Force units are established. The force is composed of pyrokinetic warriors with unique abilities.
The story follows Shinra Kusakabe, a third-generation pyrokinetic who joins Special Fire Force Company 8. His goal was to become a hero and uncover the truth behind the mysterious fire that killed his family. Along the way, he and his comrades face off against the enigmatic White-Clad. It was a doomsday cult that sought to bring about the Great Cataclysm and consume the entire world in flames.
A long-awaited return
Fire Force was first adapted into an anime by the studio David Production in July 2019. The first season ran for 24 episodes and ended in December of the same year. Fans didn’t have to wait long. Just the year after, the second season aired with another 24 episodes. While a third season was confirmed to be in production in 2022, there was no news for the elusive sequel for years.
Four years after Season 2, the third and final season is finally upon us, easily making it one of the most-anticipated series of this year. However, it won’t be ending just yet. It was previously revealed that the third season would be split into two parts. As just announced, the first part will air on April 4, while the second some time in January 2026.
