From the maker of cartoons like The Simpsons and Futurama, Matt Groening’s newest yet, Disenchantment Part 4, recently dropped on Netflix on January 9, 2022. Disenchantment is an animated sitcom dealing with satire, fantasy, and adventure. The show is set in the Kingdom of Dreamland and tells us the story of an alcoholic princess, Bean.
The rebellious princess, with Elfo, her innocent and straightforward elf, and Luci, her demon. The first episodes were released back in 2018, with Netflix later renewing the show for 20 more episodes. In 2021, the first half of these episodes were released, and the second half was on February 9.
Disenchantment has been a pleasurable show on Netflix, and people have very high hopes for its most recent episodes. Disenchantment Part 4 was set to release in January, but it braced our screens in February due to unforeseen delays.
Disenchantment Part 4 Recap: What to Expect?
Part 4 picks up exactly where Part 3 had left off. By the end of the third part, Bean becomes the Queen. But to put a damper on the festivities, the Ogres arrive to take Elfo away, for Elfo had wronged their prince. When Bean doesn’t allow it, the Ogres start attacking the entire kingdom.
Fearing for everyone else’s safety, Elfo sacrifices himself and is taken away by the ogres. Meanwhile, Dagmar arrives and tries to take Bean away. In a futile attempt to save Bean, Lucidies and – much to his disappointment – ends up in heaven. Finally, Dagmar and Bean arrive at Hell, where Bean is set to marry someone who looks very similar to Alva.
According to Netflix, in Part 4, the trio will have to undergo individual trials independently. And so will King Zøg. However, all their journeys will lead to Dreamland, and the answer to their own voyages will decide the fate of Dreamland. Bean will find herself in the depths of Heaven, while Luci will find himself in the heights of the cloudy Heaven.
The trio will have to undergo many perils, including those in Ogreland, underwater, at insane asylums and the Enchanted Forests, in monasteries and the Dreamscape, and so on. Netflix further promises that the ending will be a fitting puzzle that will immensely please the fans.

Disenchantment Part 4: What’s So Special About It?
One would think, why did an animated show about an alcoholic princess with clear issues become a Netflix favorite? The reason is that Disenchantment is not just funny or full of fantasy – it is a well-balanced concoction of serious topics, humor, and medieval fantasy elements. In addition, Josh Weinstein accredited the gradual unraveling of mysteries as the best part of writing the show.
According to him, the 4th and 6th parts of the show will be the end of the show. Not only does Disenchantment balance all genres adequately, but it also catches the audience’s interest, making sure to keep them on the edges of their seats.
