Gachiakuta anime release schedule: When are new episodes out?
The first season of Kei Urana's Gachiakuta is nearly here.
Gachiakuta is a new anime series that will appeal to you if you’re a lover of dystopian settings and dark fantasy.
Set to stream exclusively on Crunchyroll this July, the upcoming series follows protagonist Rudo Surebrec, who lives in the slums of a floating city.
After being accused of murdering his father, Rudo is cast out by higher society and dumped into "The Pit" – a massive dump site below the city where criminals and anything else considered "trash" are left to rot.
Thankfully, he is soon picked up by a group called The Cleaners, who take on the responsibility of battling the beasts that live in this toxic wasteland.
Gachiakuta was originally published in 2022 in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine, and currently sits at 140 chapters.
