The PV shows a determined Xin preparing for battle and the video ends with the April rescheduled announcement.

The poster reveals Xin in blood covered armor, readying himself for another fight.

Season 3 will resume from episode 5 and will be broadcasted in NHK General TV channel. The season will cover the Alliance Arc from the manga series and slowly move the storyline into the Coalition Invasion Arc.

Episode 4 of season 3 saw the continuing war between Fei Xin forces and Qin. Xin planned on leading the troops into the rear and charged into 10000 soldiers.

Meanwhile, the soldiers tried to climb up the Hangu pass only to be showered by arrows. A siege tower headed towards the Zhang Tang Army Headquarters.  

But, unfortunately, the tower did not reach up to the walls of Hangu Pass. Just as everyone was hoping for a miracle, the tower slung a bridge connecting the top of Hangu Pass walls and the tower.

The new episodes will hopefully show the soldiers being able to breach the walls of the impenetrable Hangu Pass and start Qin’s Downfall.

We are eagerly waiting for the release, what about you?
