Bass X Machina: A Steampunk Western With Heart
Release date: November 3
Creator LeSean Thomas, known for Yasuke and Cannon Busters, is back with a steampunk adventure animated by Studio Mir. The story follows a father in a lawless Western world full of outlaws, machines, and supernatural horrors. He’s forced to become judge, jury, and executioner. Every act of justice meant to protect his family could cost him the very people he’s fighting for.
The voice cast is stacked, with Brian Tyree Henry, Cree Summer, Tati Gabrielle, and Janelle Monáe. Some fans will argue it isn’t “anime” in the strict geographic sense, but the stylised designs, mature themes, and sharp action choreography will feel familiar to anyone who loves the medium.
Fool Night: The One Everyone Is Waiting For
Release date: November 26
This is the big one. Fool Night is a collaboration between Sunrise and Shaft, two studios with serious pedigree. It’s set in a sunless, distant future where oxygen is dangerously thin. Humanity survives through “floromorphosis,” a controversial process that turns living people into oxygen-producing plants.
Toshiro Kamiya is crushed by poverty, and his mother is seriously ill. He can’t afford food or medicine, so he considers giving up his body for a big payday. His choice becomes a dark look at what a dying society loses along the way. It’s emotional, uncomfortable, and exactly the type of sci-fi drama that sticks with you. Voice actors include Kouki Uchiyama, Aya Endou, and Junya Enoki.
The Weekly Shows Keeping You Busy
Dragon Ball Super: Beerus is the franchise’s streaming return after Daima. It remakes the Beerus arc with the stronger animation fans felt the original 2015 run lacked. Lord Beerus, the God of Destruction, goes hunting for the Super Saiyan God and threatens Earth if Goku doesn’t answer his challenge.
Ranma 1/2 Season 3 continues Mappa’s remake of the beloved ’90s classic. Ranma turns into a girl with cold water and back into a boy with hot water, and the comedy never gets old.
Steel Ball Run has had a bumpy ride. Netflix caused a stir by releasing just one episode at first, then reversed course and went weekly after fan pushback. Fans are now campaigning to change the outro song.
Blue Box Season 2 mixes high school romance with badminton and basketball. It’s sweet and easy to binge, with episodes running into March 2027.
The Ramparts of Ice and Snowball Earth round out the lineup. One is a wholesome romance about a socially guarded student, and the other follows a boy returning to a frozen Earth after eight years in cold sleep.
