We haven’t heard much of anything about the third season of Non Non Biyori since it was announced mid-May 2019 but the official site has done some serious updating to get fans in the know. The new season is going under the name Non Non Biyori Nonstop with plans for it to arrive in January 2021. That’s come with a new key visual that you can see below.
With the main cast returning, it’s also been revealed that the main staff will also be returning to it.
The first two series were directed by Shinya Kawatsura based on the overall composition by Reiko Yoshida who also wrote the scripts alongside Fumihiko Shimo and Yuka Yamada. Mai Otsuka served as the character design and the project was animated at Silver Link.

Plot concept: When Hotaru moves from Tokyo to a tiny town in the rural countryside, she’s in for some serious culture shock: the nearest place that sells comics is 20 minutes away, the nearest video store is ten train stations down the line, and there are only three other girls and one boy in her entire school! Even though everything’s so different, there’s something about the laid-back atmosphere that makes her feel strangely comfortable. While she’ll certainly miss parts of her old life, there’s a whole lifetime of experiences waiting to be enjoyed with her new friends Renge, Komari, Natsumi, and Suguru! In the end, it’s who you’re with, not where you are, that makes a place your home!
