The most anticipated horror anime of the year gets \u201csick\u201d new trailer Adult SwimA new trailer of Uzumaki just dropped, and fans are impressed with how \u201csick\u201d it looks. With Halloween almost here, we\u2019re all craving something spooky, and Junji Ito\u2019s Uzumaki is the perfect anime show to scratch that itch. After spending ages in production, the anime is finally coming to our screens this September. Based on Ito\u2019s 1998 manga by the same name, the psychological horror story is set in an ordinary small town where weird spiral shapes suddenly take over everything. We follow teenager Kirie Goshima and her boyfriend Shuuichi Sato as they witness their town\u2019s descent into madness. Uzumaki is considered one of Ito\u2019s best and creepiest works (and that\u2019s saying something), so it\u2019s understandable why the hype for its anime adaptation is so high. However, fans have had to wait for a long time to see the infamous manga in motion. Fortunately, the wait is finally over. Uzumaki will be released on Adult Swim on September 28, 2024, as a part of the Fall 2024 anime line-up. So far the show has received three trailers, each one scarier than the other, with the final official trailer dropping on September 5. Viewers are impressed with how unsettling the video is and convinced that Production I.G.\u2019s Uzumaki will finally do Ito\u2019s work the justice it deserves. Anime adaptations of the mangaka\u2019s other works haven\u2019t sat well with fans, but Uzumaki may finally break the curse. \u201cHoly sh*t, this looks good! I dreamed of seeing Junji Ito\u2019s manga like this! F*ck yeah!\u201d wrote one user on X, with another joining, \u201cThis is gonna be sick as hell.\u201d \u201cCan\u2019t wait for this! Uzumaki is going to be amazing. The animation looks incredible, and the story is so captivating. September 28 can\u2019t come soon enough!\u201d commented one fan. \u201cI can\u2019t describe the goosebumps and the disgust I had when I saw something as mundane as a snail do things, I can\u2019t wait,\u201d shared another. \u201cYeeee baby, the creepy part with babies in the maternity ward will be animated!\u201d wrote a user.
