The third season of MF Ghost is coming to an end, and fans are marking their calendars for the final episode. The high-speed racing anime, which serves as a follow-up to the legendary Initial D, has been running since January 2026. With Episode 13 set to arrive this week, here is everything you need to know about the season finale, including release times and streaming details.
The series follows Kanata Rivington, a half-Japanese driver who returned to Japan to compete in the MFG racing tournament. Season 3 picked up right after the events of Season 2, with Kanata dealing with an elbow injury that forced him to avoid using second gear during races. Despite this setback, he has continued to push through the competition, using the drifting techniques taught to him by his mentor from the Initial D era.
MF Ghost Season 3 Episode 13 Release Date and Time
MF Ghost Season 3 Episode 13 is scheduled to release on March 26, 2026. The episode will be available on streaming platforms according to the standard weekly schedule that the show has followed throughout the season.
For viewers on Crunchyroll, the episode drops at the same time as previous episodes:
- Pacific Time: 6:30 AM
- Eastern Time: 9:30 AM
- Greenwich Mean Time: 2:30 PM
In Japan, the episode will also be available on Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and other local streaming services. The television broadcast on Tokyo MX and BS NTV follows a few days after the streaming premiere, typically on Sundays.
The season consists of 13 episodes, making it one episode longer than the previous two seasons, which each had 12 episodes. This extended run has allowed the anime to adapt more content from Shuichi Shigeno’s original manga series.
What to Expect in the Season Finale
The preview for Episode 13, titled “The Lead Group Splits,” suggests the episode will focus on the intense battles during the qualifying rounds. With Kanata having fought his way back from injury early in the season, the finale is set to deliver high-stakes racing action as drivers position themselves for the races ahead.
The season has introduced new characters, including Emma Green, a cool-headed racer voiced by Nanako Aizawa, who has added fresh tension to the competition. The rivalry between Kanata and the reigning champion Michael Beckenbauer has also been building throughout the season.
