I’m Standing on Million Lives Season 3 Release Date
This series’ season one was a huge success, not by critics though, but by the audience. The critics didn’t give this show a higher rating but the audience just loved it. After the first season, the manga got 11 times an increase in its sale in 2020. But the second season didn’t give that much fun to us. After the second season, that increase in sales just drops down to loss.
So, what about season 3? Well, as of now there hasn’t been any confirmation related to the renewal of the series. After the huge backdrop after season 2, we didn’t think they’ll continue this journey. But all we can do is to hope for the best. Maho Films maybe wanted to continue the show to revive the fun and that huge loss. So, anything can still happen, if we get any updates on renewal we will update the page, so make sure to check regularly.

I’m Standing on Million Lives Season 1 Recap
The one moment that Yotsuya Yuusuke thinks Shindou Yuu and Hakozaki Kusue together is strange, and the next he finds himself in another world. The pair of Hakozaki and Yotsuya, both of whom are armed with only hoes and sickles, have zero combat experience and are responsible for defeating a powerful troll.
Having been eaten by a troll, Shindou and Hakozaki cannot revive. As Yotsuya struggles alone to raise his level, he is upgraded to a new job class: Chef. He is able to save the two girls and defeat the troll. The reward is a glimpse of what the world will look like once they have completed all ten quests.
Yotsuya sneaks into the girls’ bathroom of an unfamiliar high school after being told by the game master to hit on a girl and saves Tokitate Yuke from being bullied by her classmates. Rododorbo is the next stop on the quest, a village far to the west.
With Khavel’s assistance, Yotsuya has saved the other party members. Khavel agrees to accompany them to Rododorbo in exchange for training them in swordsmanship since players cannot die. Hakozaki, who only slowed everyone down in battle since she was weak and resigned, finally finds her courage and slays a goblin on her own.
People got saved by Yotsuya’s party who were under attack by Kobolds. They learn the group is escorting heretics to Radodorbo to be executed by soldiers in the dictatorial Kingdom of Deok
