The Big Highlights
Baki-Dou: The Invincible Samurai continues Netflix’s long-running Baki saga, pitting the underground fighting legend against the resurrected samurai Miyamoto Musashi in a wild cross-era showdown.
Sparks of Tomorrow, a brand-new original from Kyoto Animation, imagines an alternate steam-powered 20th century Kyoto. It follows two grieving young people who bond over a mysterious catalog hinting at a lost “Age of Electricity” — a quieter, more emotional entry compared to the action-heavy titles on this list.
Daemons of the Shadow Realm, from Fullmetal Alchemist creator Hiromu Arakawa, finally arrives globally on Netflix after years of anticipation. It follows twins Yuru and Asa, whose village is destroyed in a mysterious attack that unleashes supernatural forces tied to their family’s secrets.
Bass X Machina marks a bold swing for Netflix — a Steampunk Western from Studio Mir featuring a stacked voice cast including Brian Tyree Henry and Janelle Monáe. It follows a father forced into brutal moral choices to protect his family in a lawless, machine-infested frontier.
Blue Box Season 2 and Ranma 1/2 Season 3 both return this October, giving fans of romance and classic shonen comedy plenty to look forward to as the year winds down.
Meanwhile, The One Piece live-action remake’s animated counterpart — a full anime reboot of the East Blue Arc handled by WIT Studio — promises tighter pacing for one of the best-selling manga series of all time, making it an ideal entry point for newcomers.
What’s Still TBA
A few highly anticipated sequels remain without confirmed dates, including Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Season 2, The Summer Hikaru Died Season 2, and Sakamoto Days Season 2 — all expected to land sometime in 2026, though exact windows haven’t been announced.
Looking Beyond 2026
Fans can also look forward to Dan Da Dan Season 3, confirmed for 2027, continuing the fan-favorite supernatural comedy’s next chapter, the Space Globalists Arc.
