Fans have been worried that the animation quality of the main series would drop due to the films.
However, since the production budget is boosted, we might expect an outstanding fifth season which will premiere in spring 2021.
The plot for the upcoming season is still unrevealed. We are hoping that the phrase, “He will meet the three musketeers,” holds significance to the story. Will there be a surprising new character? Or is a new threat pending for our trio?
