The beloved biblio-fantasy phenomenon is expanding once more. Ascendance of a Bookworm Part 4: Founder of the Royal Academy’s So-Called Library Committee has been officially confirmed for an anime adaptation. Following the recent transition in animation duties, the series' official website has verified that WIT Studio will remain at the helm to bring this highly anticipated new arc to the screen.
The narrative picks up as Rozemyne awakens from a transformative two-year slumber. Thrust into the elite Royal Academy—a mandatory stepping stone for nobility—she encounters an entirely new cast of professors and students hailing from rival duchies. For the ultimate bibliophile, the academy presents an irresistible temptation: the largest collection of books she has ever laid eyes on, provided she can maintain her composure within the cutthroat aristocratic hierarchy.
This continuation builds upon a rich television history. The franchise originally debuted in 2019 under Studio Ajia-do, which handled the first three seasons broadcast between 2019 and 2022. The production transition to WIT Studio marked a fresh visual era for the adaptation, culminating in the recent broadcast of the latest season which wrapped up its run on October 3, 2026.
