Junji Ito's 'Uzumaki' Anime Debuts on Adult Swim

The long-awaited adaptation of the horror manga is now airing, with episodes available on Adult Swim and Max.

The four-episode series premiered on Adult Swim's Toonami block on September 28, 2024, with new episodes airing weekly.
Episodes are available for streaming on Max the day after their initial broadcast on Adult Swim.
The series faced significant delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which halted production for nearly a year.
The adaptation is noted for its faithful recreation of Ito's detailed art style, using a combination of hand-drawn animation, CGI, and motion capture.
The show is presented in black and white, a decision that adds to its unsettling atmosphere and was inspired by musician Flying Lotus.
