# List of Fire Force episodes

Fire Force is an anime television series based on Atsushi Ohkubo's manga series of the same name. An anime series adaptation produced by David Production was announced in November 2018. The first season is directed by Yuki Yase, with Yamato Haijima handling the series' scripts, Hideyuki Morioka [ja] designing the characters and Kenichiro Suehiro composing the music. The season aired from July 6 to December 28, 2019, on the Japan News Network affiliate stations MBS and TBS as part of the Super Animeism programming block and ran for 24 episodes. Crunchyroll licensed the series for streaming. Due to the Kyoto Animation arson attack on July 19, 2019, the third episode, which was originally scheduled to air on July 20, 2019, was postponed and aired a week later on July 27, 2019. In July 2019, it was announced that the series would premiere on Adult Swim's Toonami programming block on July 28, 2019. A second season, directed and written by Tatsuma Minamikawa, aired in Japan from July 4 to December 12, 2020.
A third season was announced in May 2022. In July 2024 at Anime Expo, it was announced that the third season would also be its final and air in two split cours, with the first cours set to premiere on April 5, 2025, and the second cours scheduled for January 2026. Sei Tsuguta replaces Tatsuma Minamikawa on series composition for the season, while the latter returns as series director.
