Release Date & Poster
Now, many people are asking when is Scissor Seven season 3 coming out? In a new announcement accompanied by a poster, Scissor Seven season 3 release date is slated on January 27. With how well-received the series was on Netflix, we can expect that it will only be a matter of time until the 3rd season will be added on the digital streaming platform.
Scissor Seven Overview
Here’s a short overview of Scissor Seven. The Chinese anime first premiered in China under the original title Killer Seven or Killer 7. It follows an assassin who wields scissors as a weapon and other stuff which we find hilarious. It’s an amusing donghua with the usual comedic appeal that you can easily find from a Chinese story.
The donghua first premiered in April 2018 as an action, comedy, drama with martial-arts and mystery-theme, and revolves around the characters of Seven, Thirteen, and Dai Bo. It was then followed by its second season which premiered in October of 2019 where it was well-received by western fans.
Synopsis
To the casual eye, the amnesiac bounty hunter Wu Liuqi looks quite intimidating. With his deadly telekinetic scissor techniques and his ability to seamlessly transform into anything, one would not expect his modest demeanor. In fact, Wu is quite terrible at his job. Often times the freelancer can be found botching an assassination or targeting the wrong person.
While his failures could be due to his subpar skills, it usually boils down to him being a normal kid, with a heart unsuited for his line of work. Accompanied by his feathered friend Dai Bo, Wu is on a simple quest to regain his memories. Although his inconspicuous day job as a hairdresser and his after-hours occupation are simply a means for him to repay debt, his various ventures seem to intertwine with his pursuit to recover his lost past.
