Netflix is set to release the new stop-motion animated series featuring Sanrio’s popular characters My Melody and Kuromi. The show, titled My Melody & Kuromi, will premiere worldwide on July 24, 2025.
Netflix describes the story:
My Melody opens a cake shop in Mariland. After encountering a pink heart in the forest, strange things start happening around her. Meanwhile, Kuromi’s Japanese sweets shop across the street is always empty. Kuromi searches for the secret to My Melody’s cakes. My Melody and Kuromi work hard to prepare for a sweets-making contest judged by the world-famous pastry chef Pistachio. However, no one knows that this will lead to an incident that threatens the fate of Mariland.
