Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 Finally Has A Release Date, And Netflix Has More Anime On The Way

A wild and weird Western spin on the story of Bass Reeves–a real-life person who escaped slavery and later became the first Black deputy US Marshal–the new series imagines the legend as a cyborg looking for revenge. Set in a steampunk world, the series is being produced by the anime studios Mappa and Madhouse, and it features Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta, Transformers One) as Bass. It’ll be hitting Netflix on November 3.

Sakamoto Days: Season 2

What if the soft-spoken clerk behind the counter of your local convenience store was secretly the world’s greatest assassin? You’d get Sakamoto Days, a hit anime series that earned rave reviews following its first season. The new teaser was light on animation, but it did feature new characters for the second season–Amane, Etsuko Satoda, and Yotsumura–who’ll feature prominently in it. The second season of Sakamoto Days launches in January 2027.

Fool Night

Unveiled earlier this year, Fool Night is an adaptation of Kasumi Yasuda’s manga of the same name. The animation is by Sunrise (Mobile Suit Gundam) and Shaft (Puella Magi Madoka Magica), and the show is set in a dystopian future where Earth has been plunged into eternal night. As oxygen ran out and plants began to die, scientists started transforming humans into hybrid plant creatures using a technique called transfloration. The series follows a boy named Toshiro Kamiya, who undergoes a procedure to cover his mother’s medical expenses, but the operation causes his life to fall apart. It’ll debut on Netflix on November 26.

Blue Eye Samurai: Season 2

The first season of Blue Eye Samurai was a sleeper hit for Netflix, blending slick animation with hard-hitting storytelling and even harder-hitting action scenes. Season Two shifts locations from 17th-century Japan to London, as Mizu continues her vengeance-fueled journey. It’ll arrive January 2027 on Netflix. 

Lego One Piece

Based on Netflix’s live-action One Piece TV series–which is in turn adapted from the One Piece manga by Eiichiro Oda–Lego One Piece features the voices of the cast as they sail the Grand Line in Lego form. It looks adorable, and with Usopp spinning the tallest of tales, Lego feels like the perfect medium to bring his outlandish stories to life. This one is out soon on September 29.

The One Piece

There’s no trailer yet for The One Piece, but we did get some new key art for this show. A reimagining of Monkey D. Luffy’s early adventures in East Blue from Attack on Titan’s Studio Wit, it’ll premiere in 2027.
