Saiki Kusuo no-nan also referred to as The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. and broadcast during the summer and fall of 2016, is a comedy anime hidden gem. It delivers a climax and a cliffhanger at the same time by harnessing the power of a five-minute attention span and fast-paced incantation dialogues. The weekly shounen Japanese manga, written and drawn by Shuuichi Asou, served as the inspiration for the anime. JC Staff and Egg Firm Studios produced the anime to be brought to the screen. The first season lasted a long time because it had 120 five-minute episodes. The series’ follow-up was also a resounding success. Because of the show’s longevity, the fans were captivated. Like its manga, it is loved by millions of people all over the world.
Due to its success, Netflix decided to produce a clever six-episode sequel that will continue the plot. On December 30, 2019, the platform officially launched the ONA (Original Net Animation), “The Disastrous Life of Saiki K: Reawakened,” for global streaming. The Netflix-produced arc was dubbed “season 3” by the audience, who are now eagerly anticipating season 4.
The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. Season 4 Release Date
Although we are unsure of the precise date of Season 4’s debut, we do know that it will happen soon and that the show has not been canceled. That is taking into account the fact that Netflix produced the final season entirely on its own. We are aware of the series’ immense popularity, so abruptly ending it would be a waste. It even managed to amass an impressive 8.45 out of 10 on MYAnimeList from a total of 519,584 users, earning it a spot among the top 150 anime on this well-known website.

The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. Season 4 Story
In earlier seasons, we got to know Kusuo Saiki, a high school student who was anything but typical, as well as his peculiar family and friends. With psychic abilities that allow him to read minds, teleport from one place to another, return objects and people to their previous states in the past, and more, Saiki was born into a world that is remarkably normal. Because of his immense strength, he is capable of wiping out the entire planet by himself. But what are his actual intentions?
He merely wants to lead a regular life. He cannot, however, because of those around him. Everyone he encounters is either strange or psychic. He keeps avoiding them and hiding his true nature from them throughout the entire season so he can live a normal life, which gives the anime a comedic element. After watching all three seasons, you will come to love Saiki, and other characters will also grow on you.

What can thus be anticipated for the upcoming season? It is highly likely that Shuuichi Asou, the manga’s original creator, will take on the task of developing the plot, but we can also anticipate that the studios will hire new writers to do the job. Saiki’s unconventional daily routine will continue in the new season, and perhaps we’ll meet some new characters as well.
