From July 3-6, Hulu Animayhem City will transport fans at Anime Expo into a vibrant city packed with easter Eggs, their favorite characters and interactive moments with Hulu’s most popular anime shows, along with exclusively themed take home memorabilia.

Adult Swim’s Toonami anime block revealed highlights of its May 2025 programming lineup, which will bring Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War and Blue Exorcist: Kyoto Saga to the network for the first time, starting May 17.

After an unidentified plant from outer space invasion, Rita finds herself trapped in a time loop, forced to relive the same day over and over again. With each loop, she learns. She fights. Her memories and experiences sharpen her skills, turning her into a formidable warrior. Yet, the endless cycle of death and solitude begins to wear her down. Then, she meets Keiji. “I’ve been repeating this day too,” he says. Two lost souls, trapped in an endless war. Could their meeting change fate?

Lazarus premieres 4/5 @ midnight on Toonami on Adult Swim, next day on Max.

Crunchyroll announced today at CCXP in Sāo Paulo that it has acquired the North American and select international theatrical rights including Brazil for the dark epic fantasy omnibus movie Attack on Titan: THE LAST ATTACK, as well announcing as a flurry of new anime series and seasons of returning shows for its streaming lineup.

The legend of Goku continues when the English-language dub of Dragon Ball DAIMA arrives on Crunchyroll starting on January 10 in select territories. Based on an all-new story and character designs from author Akira Toriyama, this original anime series from Toei Animation commemorates the 40th Anniversary of Dragon Ball.

We sat with the legendary creator of Cowboy Bebop who talked about his new show LAZARUS coming to Adult Swim in 2025.

In addition to the 6-month break for the anime, ‘One Piece’ has just announced a two-week break for the manga.

The reason for the break is that Oda wants to get involved in the second season of the live-action and wants to spend a few days supervising Netflix to make sure that everything is done as well as in the first season.
