Every Major Anime Release Coming to Netflix in 2026

Pokémon Horizons: Season 3—Rising Hope

Starting in 2024, Netflix became the official streaming home for the newest Pokémon animated series, Pokémon Horizons. They will continue to be the home for the series in 2026 with the release of Pokémon Horizons: Season 3—Rising Hope.

The new season of the popular monster-collecting animated series will premiere on January 6, 2026. Picking up one year after the events of Season 2, it follows heroes Liko and Roy as they lead a team of adventurers called the Rising Volt Tacklers.

Dorohedoro Season 2

It’s been almost six years since the first episodes of Dorohedoro appeared on Netflix, and fans have been waiting for more. Season 2 is now set to arrive sometime in Spring 2026, continuing the anime’s exciting story.

The anime Dorohedoro returns, adapting the popular manga by Q Hayashida. It follows Caiman, a mysterious character with a reptile head who has lost his memory. He lives in the rundown, poverty-stricken area called Hole.

Life here isn’t easy, this city’s seen a lot of darkness. But I’ve been following Caiman, and he’s really trying to change things. He’s going after the people at the top, those who abuse their power, hoping to give the rest of us a real chance at a better life. It’s inspiring to watch.

Beastars Season 3, Part 2

Since 2019, Beastars has been a popular anime on Netflix. It’s sad news for fans that Season 3, Part 2 will be the final episodes of the series.

I’m so excited to hear that the final part of Beastars is confirmed for 2026! It’s going to be amazing to finally see how Legoshi’s story wraps up and how the whole carnivore versus herbivore conflict finally gets resolved. It feels like a real ending to a series I’ve really enjoyed.

In the second part of Season 3, Legoshi finds himself living independently after leaving school. At the same time, his friends are working to stop Melon, who continues to cause trouble for others.

Devil May Cry Season 2

The second season of Devil May Cry will follow Dante, a demon hunter, as he continues his quest for revenge after the loss of his family, all while evading both a dangerous terrorist group and the U.S. government. Inspired by Capcom’s popular video game series, the show was highly praised upon its release for its exciting action and faithfulness to the original games.
