After 3.5 years of patiently waiting for the highly anticipated Re:Zero Season 3 to return to Crunchyroll, the first episode of the season has leaked online, as the streaming service joins Netflix in a bad week due to its growing problem of serial anime leaks.
CBR can confirm that the first episode of Re:Zero Season 3 has leaked onto online torrent sites. The episode, which was released with French subtitles, debuted about two months before its official October 2024 premiere. Crunchyroll will also stream the series in October. It's unclear whether the leak is related to the streaming platform's unexplained decision to cancel Re:Zero Season 3's premiere at Japan Expo Paris 2024.

Euphonium Season 3, The Banished Former Hero Lives as He Pleases, Astro Note, and As a Reincarnated Aristocrat, I'll Use My Appraisal Skill to Rise in the World were all leaked days before their scheduled release dates.
