The Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun franchise is expanding beyond the small screen. During the "DEVIL'S PARTY! 2" special event held on Sunday, a promotional video confirmed that the series is officially in production on its first-ever feature film. The teaser footage promises an entirely new story, marking a significant milestone for the adaptation as it approaches the 10th anniversary of Osamu Nishi's original manga next year.
This announcement follows the conclusion of the anime's fourth season, which wrapped up its 24-episode run on Saturday. Produced by Bandai Namco Pictures, the series has maintained a consistent presence on NHK Educational since its 2019 debut. While the television series has been a staple on Crunchyroll for international viewers, details regarding the film's theatrical release window or production staff remain under wraps.
The franchise has built a dedicated following over its four seasons, with the original 2019 series holding a 7.74 score on MyAnimeList from nearly 300,000 voters. Beyond the main television run, the property has also branched out into spin-offs like Mairimashita! Iruma-kun: If Episode of Mafia. With the fourth season having just concluded, the film serves as the next major development for the supernatural comedy, which currently holds a 79/100 rating on Kitsu.
Given the film's status as an original story rather than a direct adaptation of a manga arc, it remains to be seen how it will fit into the established timeline of Iruma's life at Babyls Demon School. Are you hoping to see the film focus on a specific side character, or should it center on the main trio's latest school-year antics?
