A Shonen Jump Classic Is Returning With New Movie After 10 Years

by

One timeless anime series from Shonen Jump is making a comeback with a fresh movie, a decade after its initial anime debut graced our screens. This year for Shonen Jump has been quite eventful as the magazine is wrapping up numerous series while simultaneously reviving several classic franchises. These resurgences can manifest in various ways, such as returning to the magazine with new sequels like the recent commencement of a sequel for Jujutsu Kaisen. Additionally, many of these franchises are reappearing on our screens through brand-new anime projects, long after their initial runs concluded.

Yusei Matsui’s “Assassination Classroom” is still fresh in the minds of many fans, despite the creator’s current project, “The Elusive Samurai,” gracing the pages of Shonen Jump magazine and having its anime’s second season underway. To mark the 10th anniversary of the original debut of “Assassination Classroom,” it has been announced that a new movie is in production, featuring unseen materials for fans to enjoy. Below, you’ll find the announcement teaser and poster.

Assassination Classroom Returning With New Movie After 10 Years

In honor of the tenth anniversary of the anime, Assassination Classroom has confirmed a fresh movie sequel. Entitled “Assassination Classroom the Movie: Everybody’s Time,” the upcoming film is hinted at by Matsui as a continuation of the original series. It will incorporate unutilized materials from the initial TV show and introduce a whole new plotline, with its premiere in Japan scheduled for March 20, 2026. At this stage, there’s no news on international release plans.

Titled “Assassination Classroom: Everybody’s Time“, the film is directed by Masaki Kitamura, known for his work with Studio Lerche, which produced the initial TV anime series. The screenplay is written by Makoto Uezu, and Aya Higami contributes to character design. However, it remains unconfirmed if any actors from the original TV show’s cast will reprise their roles in this movie. This new film marks a significant comeback since the original anime series concluded ten years ago.

Why Assassination Classroom Is Special

I’m absolutely thrilled as we commemorate the 10-year anniversary of Assassination Classroom! It’s been a remarkable journey, and it’s fascinating to reflect on how profoundly this franchise has resonated with us. Originally airing for just one season of 47 episodes, the series extended its storyline through OVA specials, and even ventured into live-action films.

Now, we’re on the brink of a new anime chapter, marking the first major anime release in a decade for this beloved franchise. What better time than now to revisit the original TV anime? You can easily catch up with it on streaming platforms like Hulu and Crunchyroll while eagerly awaiting the upcoming releases!

The story revolves around a group of students who were given an unusual assignment: to kill their teacher before a specific deadline, yet the unexpected twist is that this teacher was actually an incredibly powerful extraterrestrial being sent to evaluate humanity. This intriguing premise drew in fans worldwide (with certain regions even banning it), and the students’ adventures, as they navigated their assassin school life, were full of hilarious and unconventional experiences.
