Yes, I can always use more Strike Witches.

My body is ready for this.

Hopefully Funimation gets both of these. Though I assume the third series will end up going to Crunchyroll like the other 2 for simulcast like always.

Also, the movie needs to get licensed. Funimation said they had no plans at NDK this year but I bet it's because of Kadokawa's embargo on releasing stuff due to reverse import paranoia like always and we'll probably get an announcement next year. Or they're going to just pick up everything wholesale after the OVA and series 3 come out.

The name of the 3rd season makes it sound like it'll be abouth another JFW than the 501st(the 507th or 502nd maybe?).

Excited for this! Loved the first two seasons but still need to see the movie.

I assume Crunchyroll lost streaming rights once Funimation got the home video rights? As it is currently on Funi, both seasons, but absent from Crunchy.

They might do some kind of joint stream for this like with Attack on Titan.

Where do you see that title?

I'm guessing the 506th will be in S3, since the 501st went to help them at the end of the movie.

The third season doesn't have any special title that indicates that.
And yeah, it's unclear which unit it'll be about.

It named the 'Tactics of the Vanadis Attack'. Vanadis is another name for Freyja, the Norse god of love, beauty, fertility, gold, Seiðr(A type of sorcery), war and death.
