In the previous season, Shinra Kusakabe resolved to become a hero to save lives from flames, especially after his encounter with his younger brother, Sho, in the Nether. In the season, he realized the secret of Amaterasu, which basically functioned based on the people with the Adolla Burst as fuel.
On the other hand, the Special Fire Force Company 8 managed to increase its goodwill among the other companies. They united to confront the Evangelists or the White Clads, who wanted to acquire eight pillars to initiate the Great Destruction.
Moreover, Shinra and others found two such pillars. However, they couldn't get Inka, one of the pillars, to their side. The season also saw Shinra Kusakabe and Arthur go through training at Benimaru's company. As a result, they awakened new powers, which the upcoming season will showcase.
