What is the information about the third season and what is the remaining foreshadowing?

Like the first two seasons, the third season of Loghora is set to be broadcast on NHK ETV.
The broadcast will begin in October 2020.
The first two seasons were broadcast in the evening, but the time slot for the third season has not yet been revealed.
The production staff will be largely the same as before.
Director Shinji Ishidaira will continue to direct the series, and series structure will be handled by Shozo Nemoto.
Like the first and second seasons, Masuda is also on the list as a story supervisor.
Studio Deen, which produced the second season, will be in charge of the animation production.
All of the cast members are also continuing.
Familiar faces will reunite, including Takuatsu Terashima, who plays Shiroe, Tomoaki Maeno, who plays his best friend Naotsugu, Emiri Kato, who plays the most popular assassin heroine, Akatsuki, and Joji Nakata, who plays Nyanta, the “cat people”.
There are still a few mysteries that remain from the second season of the anime, and it will be interesting to see if they will be revealed in the third season.
The biggest mystery is still the reason why Shiroe and the others were trapped in Serdesia.
At the same time, it’s not clear if there is a way for them to return or what this world is in the first place.
There’s also a lot of mystery about the “liturgy,” the “moon,” the “voyage species (traveler),” and the player town of Minami.
This is the type of work that contains foreshadowing in the casual descriptions, so it would be best to review the first two seasons before the third season begins.
How far will the third season be visualized?
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
The title of the third season is “Log Horizon: Round Table Collapse”.
As mentioned above, “Round Table Collapse” is the subtitle of volume 12 (ep12), and it is a tumultuous storyline in which the combat guild “Honesty” leaves the Round Table, an autonomous organization of influential guilds, and opens a new governing body, the Akiva Governing Office….
It is certain that this episode will be seen in the 3rd season.
It is not clear as of January 2020 if it will be two cool seasons like the first and second seasons or if it will be one cool season.
In the second season, the tenth volume, “The Cultivation of the Noosphere” was made into a movie, so if the story is to be broadcast at the same pace as before, it would need to be about five volumes.
However, the only work currently posted on Narrowrowrowrow is up to ep14 “Deceptive Orphan”, so there is no room for the stock to grow.
The last episode of the anime adaptation was also published in Narou, and I think the story has already been written in the background for the anime adaptation project, so there is a possibility that it will be broadcasted as a two-episode story, but considering the fact that it was subtitled “Round Table Collapse”, I think there is a high probability that it will be a one-episode story.
In that case, it will be visualized up to ep13 “Nightingale’s Song”.
Also, it is conceivable that the story will be divided into two parts, in which case the sequel will be broadcasted after a short period of time.
As of volume 8, it’s been stated that it’s “roughly in the middle” and, although not yet posted, the subtitles for ep15 “Coppelia, Tiered Island” and ep16 “Friday in Cerdesia” have been revealed, so fans are expecting Loghora to end at volume 16 or slightly later.
Perhaps this anime adaptation will be part of the Loghora completion project, and the new book will be released as the anime progresses, and the original and the anime will be completed almost simultaneously.
Summary
In fact, a few days before the announcement of the third season, I wrote an article saying “I’d like to see the third season of Loghora come to fruition, but it’s not going to happen. I wrote an article saying “I hope you’ll at least write it to completion”, and now that the third season has been announced, I’m in a hurry to rewrite it…
I’m ashamed of my lack of reading, and I’m really happy that an anime sequel is being produced from this difficult situation.
This really is a miracle!
