What To Expect From Kill Blue Episode 4
Episode 3 of Kill Blue went for the character development where Juzo deals with several problems – from handling math problems in his class, to joining the school club, and finally getting to know about the marriage announcement about Mitsuoka.

Episode 4 is expected to continue from that ending, and Juzo may likely face increasing difficulty with that new marriage twist. In the previous episode, Kotatsu informed him that marrying Noren could be the only way to get back his adult body, which immediately raised the stakes.
Thus, in the next episode, character relationships are expected to evolve further. The school setting is no longer just a comedic backdrop – it is becoming a critical part of the story, and the next episode may reveal more details about the mysterious Mitsuoka family and about their shady business activities, while introducing even more new characters to the story.
How Many Episodes Are in Kill Blue?
According to available official listings (via Anime News Network), Kill Blue is expected to have 12 episodes in its first season. This aligns with the standard single-cour format commonly used in modern anime productions.
