Bofuri Season 3: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on July 28, 2025, 20:16 IST Last updated July 28, 2025, 20:26 IST Fans of Bofuri: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense are buzzing with excitement, eagerly awaiting news about a third season. This lighthearted anime, centered around Maple's quirky adventures in the VRMMORPG NewWorld Online, has captured hearts with its blend of humor, action, and unexpected twists. With Season 2 wrapping up in April 2023, the question on everyone's mind is: when will Season 3 drop, who's returning, and what's next for Maple and her crew? Here's everything we know so far. Release Date Speculation: When Can We Expect Season 3? As of July 2025, there's no official word from Silver Link, Fujimi Shobo, or any other key players about Bofuri Season 3. However, the anime's popularity in Japan and its dedicated global fanbase make a third season highly likely. The gap between Season 1 (January 2020) and Season 2 (January 2023) was three years, partly due to production delays and the anime industry's packed schedules. A similar timeline suggests a potential release in 2026, though some fans hope for a late 2025 debut if production moves quickly. Cast: Who's Returning for Season 3? The voice cast is a huge part of Bofuri 's charm, bringing Maple and her Maple Tree guild to life with vibrant performances. Based on Seasons 1 and 2, expect the core cast to return, assuming no major changes. Here's who's likely to reprise their roles: Kaede Hondo as Maple (Kaede Honjou) : The lovable protagonist who maxes out her defense stats, turning her into an unstoppable tank with a knack for breaking the game. Rina Hidaka as Sally (Risa Shiromine) : Maple's best friend and a speedy, agile fighter who balances Maple's slow, sturdy playstyle. Yurika Kubo as Kasumi : The samurai-style player whose new sword and character arc were highlights in Season 2. Saori Hayami as Mii : Leader of the Flame Emperors, known for her fiery magic and dramatic flair. Satomi Arai as Kanade : The puzzle-solving brainiac of Maple Tree. Ai Kakuma as May and Yuko Minaguchi as Yui: The twin sisters who bring raw power to the guild. Silver Link typically sticks with established voice actors for consistency, and these performers have been praised for their chemistry. New characters from the light novel's later volumes, like those introduced in the 7th or 8th layers of NewWorld Online, might bring fresh voices, but no casting rumors have surfaced yet. Plot Details: What's Next for Maple and Maple Tree? Bofuri 's story thrives on Maple's unconventional approach to gaming, where maxing out defense leads to hilarious and overpowered moments. Season 2 ended with Maple and her guild facing new challenges on the 7th layer, hinting at bigger adventures to come. Season 3 is likely to adapt volumes 9 through 12 of the light novel, diving into new game layers, events, and skills that push Maple's creativity to new heights. Expect more absurdly fun battles, like Maple turning into a literal fortress or devouring monsters to gain bizarre abilities. The light novel's later arcs introduce tougher opponents and deeper world-building, exploring new areas of NewWorld Online and expanding on guild dynamics. Maple Tree's bonds—especially between Maple and Sally—will remain central, with themes of friendship and teamwork shining through. Fans can also look forward to more comedic moments, like Maple accidentally breaking the game with her unorthodox strategies. While no official spoilers have been released, fan forums speculate that Season 3 will delve into larger guild battles and new game mechanics, building on Season 2's faster-paced narrative. Some fans worry about pacing issues, as Season 2 condensed five volumes into 12 episodes, but Silver Link's knack for balancing action and humor should keep things engaging.

Maple Tree Counselling, a fast-growing, multicultural therapy centre located in the heart of Central, Hong Kong, is redefining what mental health support looks like in Asia's world city.

It may not always be comfortable, especially with emotionally triggering topics such as infidelity, however, the client will learn not only how to navigate roadblocks and issues within their relationship, but also how to soothe and emotionally regulate themselves in order to identify what they really want from their partner in their life together.' Maple Tree practitioners also provide individual therapy for adults and adolescents dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, career stress, and more.

As previously mentioned, what sets Maple Tree Counselling apart is its diverse, globally trained team, all of whom bring both clinical expertise and rich life experience to their work. With therapists fluent in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, the practice makes therapy accessible to Hong Kong's international business professionals, returning locals, and multicultural couples and families. Specialisations across the team include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), somatic therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions, giving clients access to modern, effective approaches that align with their goals. In addition to the above, a new couples counsellor joins the team in July, Julia Laubscher. Julia specializes in helping individuals and couples navigate challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and inner child wounds. She has a particular focus on couples counselling, addressing relationship issues like conflict management, communication patterns, loss of connection and betrayal. As the mental health conversation continues to evolve in Asia, Maple Tree Counselling is leading the charge. By removing the stigma around therapy and offering sophisticated, multilingual services across the personal and corporate spheres, the practice is helping shape a healthier, more self-aware Hong who already work with Maple Tree include co-founders Jacquelyn Tryde, Casey McGrath, Simon Westcott, and Associate therapists including Nicola Shannon, John Mok-Lamme, Amanda Friday, Josephine Tong, Kari Entwisle, Marilyn Tryde and Bea Smith..
