When Does Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 Come Out?
Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 releases on Netflix on Tuesday, October 20, with all 10 episodes at once. Studio Trigger is back, and this is a standalone story with a new cast, so you don’t need to have seen the first season. It’s the biggest anime binge of the year, so clear the weekend.
When Does Devils’ Crest Come Out on Prime Video?
Devils’ Crest premieres on Prime Video worldwide on November 6, per Anime News Network. It’s based on the novel by Reki Kawahara, the creator of Sword Art Online (Yen Press publishes it in English as Demons’ Crest), with Production I.G animating and Ado singing the opening. If you already have Prime for The Boys, this one costs you nothing extra.
When Does Fool Night Come Out on Netflix?
Fool Night streams worldwide on Netflix on November 26, with the whole series released that day, according to Anime News Network. Sunrise and Shaft are co-producing. Some Netflix release calendars list it under November 3, but that’s a mix-up with Bass X Machina; November 26 is the announced date.
Twisted-Wonderland Season 2 Ends the Year on Disney+
Disney Twisted-Wonderland: The Animation returns for Episode of Savanaclaw in December on Disney+ and Hulu. Disney hasn’t announced the exact day yet. It’s the only Disney-owned anime on this list, and it’s aimed squarely at fans of the mobile game.
Is The Apothecary Diaries Movie Coming to the US in 2026?
The Apothecary Diaries film, The Deceased Empress’ Treasure, opens in Japan on December 11, but a US date hasn’t been announced. Crunchyroll and Sony hold the North American rights, so it will reach US theaters; just don’t count on it before New Year’s. In the meantime, season 3 is streaming weekly on Crunchyroll, and its second half returns in April 2027.
Big Anime That Won’t Arrive in 2026
If you’re waiting on one of the giants, the rest of 2026 is going to sting. None of these has a release date:
- Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 2: no date announced for any year.
- Chainsaw Man, International Assassins Arc: in production at MAPPA. No date, and it isn’t confirmed yet whether it’s a series or a film.
- Jujutsu Kaisen, The Culling Game Part 2: announced, with a teaser out, but no premiere date.
- Solo Leveling: Beyond the System: the first Solo Leveling movie was announced in July with no date.
- Dandadan season 3: coming in 2027, month not announced.
Our Take: Late 2026 Belongs to the Binge Drops
Fall’s weekly shows are mostly on Crunchyroll, but almost everything new after mid-October is a full-season drop on a general streamer: Edgerunners 2 and Fool Night on Netflix, Devils’ Crest on Prime Video. Add the US exclusives from earlier this year (Bleach on Hulu, Oshi no Ko on HIDIVE) and it’s clear one anime subscription doesn’t cover it anymore. A cheap way to get through the end of the year: keep Crunchyroll for the weekly shows, and pick up Netflix’s $8.99 ad tier for November only. Our streaming service comparison has current prices for every service.
