On the 7th, Netflix unveiled new anime information and released a special lineup video. The announcement included the production of the epic "Leviathan," with music by Joe Hisaishi, and "Tokyo Override," set in Tokyo in 2126. They also revealed the English voice cast for "Rajah in the Attic" and announced the worldwide streaming of the theatrical film "Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Cosmos." Additionally, scene photos from the CG feature film "Ultraman: Rising," a long-form CG anime movie created in Japan, were released, showcasing Japan-related works.

"Leviathan," a Netflix series with original songs by Joe Hisaishi, animation production by Orange (known for "Land of the Lustrous," "BEASTARS," and "TRIGUN STAMPEDE"), direction by Christophe Ferreira of "Eden," and production by Justin Leach, will be exclusively streamed worldwide in 2025. The teaser art and scene photos were also revealed, depicting a story where a prince and a girl disguised as a boy meet on the bioengineering airship Leviathan on the eve of World War I in 1914. This encounter changes history.

"Tokyo Override" is a sci-fi animation set in Tokyo 100 years from now, where AI has seamlessly integrated into daily life and urban living is fully automated. The story follows outcast protagonists who uncover a great evil lurking in the seemingly ideal society. It will be exclusively streamed worldwide in 2024. The story features a lonely teenage hacker who, at the request of their only friend, meets a group of outcasts skilled in riding motorcycles—an endangered mode of transportation in this world. Through investigating a fatal accident, they discover the shocking reality behind what was thought to be a utopian city.

Up-and-coming storyteller Yusuke Fukada, known for producing the Sylvester Stallone series "Ultimate Beastmaster," and Virapatra Jinanavin, who blends Hollywood major studio experience with the sensibilities of his native Thailand, co-direct this project.

With the cooperation of Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd., and Honda Motor Co., Ltd., the future world is constructed with immersive audio, featuring real and original design motorcycles roaring through a pop and noir bike action sci-fi entertainment.

"Rajah in the Attic" will be exclusively streamed worldwide on Netflix starting July 5. Through the perspectives of a girl named Amanda (voiced by Ryo Suzuki / English dub by Evie Kizzell) and her imaginary friend Rajah (voiced by Kokoro Terada / English dub by Louie Ludge Buchanan), the film explores the profound power of humanity and creativity.
