The stories, trailers, release movements, and community signals shaping the anime conversation from August 24 through August 31, 2026.
Official video deskSource-linkedWeekly scanIn the August 31 reporting window, episodes 1175 and 1176 were listed for Crunchyroll on August 23 and 30, with Netflix releases following on August 29 and September 5. Those dates have passed; the anime’s weekly schedule continues to change. Treat the linked schedule as a dated snapshot, not a live calendar.
Anime News Network’s August 19–25 list ranked individual episode scores submitted by its readers for eligible series streaming in North America. It is a snapshot of those ratings, not a measure of overall popularity or objective quality. The report’s cumulative list and methodology are available at the link.
Anime News Network reported on August 31 that the official anime site had announced a 2027 debut for Season 2. The report also identified returning and newly announced staff. No month or exact release date was given in the source.
Crunchyroll’s June 4 coverage identified the Season 3 trailer and ending theme. This predates the August 24–31 briefing window, so it is not presented as a new announcement from that week. The official TOHO animation trailer remains available below.
The QWER opening theme “SHOW DOWN” appeared earlier in July. Crunchyroll reported the official lyric video on July 30, so this is background context rather than a new August-week development.
