Netflix Announces 2021-2022 Anime Slate
Netflix has been doing this thing lately where they keep going back and forth on weekly series with only Japanese subtitles and binged titles with English dubbed adaptation for it’s anime, and I wish they’d knock that shit off. In any event, the biggest streamer in the world has released their slate of upcoming original anime series that are slated to premiere over the next couple of years. Among the highlights, Detective Conan, a couple of premiere dates announced through January, and this isn’t even the tip of the iceberg of adult animation coming to the streamer over the next several months when you add in programming that is beginning to kick in from all parts of the world that isn’t anime. Check out the list of premieres below:
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Stone Ocean (premiere date December 1, 2021);
Aggretsuko Season 4 (December 16, 2021)
The Orbital Children (January 28, 2022)
Tiger & Bunny 2 (April 2022)
Kakegurui Twin (August 2022)
The Seven Deadly Sins: Grudge of Edinburgh (2022)
Detective Conan: The Culprit Hanazawa
Detective Conan: Zero’s Tea Time (undated)
Kotaro Lives Alone (2022)
Vampire in the Garden (2022);
Ultraman Season 2 (2022)
Rilakkuma’s Theme Park Adventure (2022).







There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
