‘Encouragement of Climb: Next Summit’ to Debut New Character this October

If you are a fan of Yuru Camp and love traveling anime in general, Encouragement of Climb should be on your ‘Top-10’ List.

This sweet series about mountaineering might not seem very popular, but it has already received three seasons and is onto its fourth.

Encouragement of Climb: Next Summit, the anime’s fourth season, will premiere in October 2022. The anime is set to receive 12 episodes, and each of them will be 30-minutes long.

This is the first time that any season from Encouragement of Climb: Next Summit is receiving full-length episodes. Seasons 1 to 3 had episodes ranging from five to 15 minutes.

A beautiful new visual is also out, and it shows Aoi under a cherry blossom tree.

Like always, Aoi and Hinata will go off on new adventures and give us more information on climbing. Although there might not be much of a twist in the plot, there will be a new character called Koharu.

Koharu is the president of Aoi’s mountaineering club. A new character might add some much-needed freshness to this long-running series.

Koharu was first teased in a trailer that was released in September 2021. You can check out the video right here:

Since Crunchyroll simul-streamed the previous seasons of  Encouragement of Climb, the same treatment can be expected towards the new season.

Nonetheless, Encouragement of Climb is a cute anime that will relax you and strip away all the stress from homework and work pressure. Next Summit will be no less calming, and I can’t wait to know which mountain they will conquer next.

About Encouragement of Climb
