"Narumi's Week at Work" spin-off premieres September 5, 2026 on Crunchyroll, four episodes airing weekly. The Final Chapter release date is still unannounced.
Dandadan Season 3
The December key visual finally pinned Season 3 to 2027 — an official window, though still a year rather than a date. Science SARU is back to animate it, and the story picks up straight out of the Kaiju arc and into the Space Globalists arc.

A new movie, "Solo Leveling: Beyond the System," just got announced — it picks up right after Season 2. It's a bridge project, not a replacement for Season 3, and it doesn't have a date yet either.
Demon Slayer Season 5
Infinity Castle Part 1 starts streaming worldwide on Crunchyroll (and Netflix across most of Asia) on July 28. Part 2 won't make it out in 2026 though — now looking at 2027 at the earliest.

Jack Quaid (Hughie from The Boys) is joining Season 5 as Gravitator, a reformed thief-turned-hero. Season 6 got confirmed in the same breath.
