Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Season 4 has revealed the creditless opening video and Episode 1 preview ahead of its April 8, 2026 premiere. Season 4 will consist of 19 episodes, divided over two consecutive cours / story arcs:
- The Loss Arc: 11 episodes, beginning on April 8, 2026
- The Recapture Arc: 8 episodes, beginning on August 12, 2026
Both arcs will air and stream as part of the same season, continuing the story following the events of Season 3. Considering the episode counts, there will also be a ~2 month break from June 17 (assuming there are no recaps/weekly breaks in-between) until August 12, but the season will still stream over two consecutive cours–Spring 2026 and Summer 2026. You can watch the opening below.

The season’s ending theme, “Ender Ember” is performed by returning MYTH & ROID in collaboration with TK of Ling tosite sigure. It was previously previewed in a short video:
