Junji Ito Crimson is a brand new anime project announced during Japan Expo 2025, and it was confirmed to be a new anime adapting a selection of works centered on “monsters.” This new project has yet to confirm a release window or date as of the time of this publication, but you can check out the spooky announcement trailer below to get ready for this new take on Junji Ito’s prolific works. A new take that will likely have much better luck than seen with previous attempts.
What to Know for Junji Ito Crimson
Unfortunately very little has been revealed as to what to expect from Junji Ito Crimson. The new anime project has not confirmed its format (whether it’s going to be a series, specials or otherwise), nor have any of the staff or production studios involved been revealed thus far. What has been revealed, however, is that Junji Ito Crimson will be streaming with Crunchyroll upon its debut and will feature an opening theme titled โKarasuageha” as performed by Yumi Matsutoya. But considering the response to the most recent Junji Ito adaptation for Uzumaki, fans are definitely going to be curious to see how this is all going to shake out.
