The broadcast of Gachiakuta Episode 3 has been delayed due to national election coverage in Japan. Originally set to release on July 20, the episode will now be broadcast on Sunday, July 27 at 11:30 PM (JST) on CBC/TBS.
The schedule change comes as Japanese television networks adjust their programming to accommodate live coverage of election night. This is also the reason the upcoming ONE PIECE episode was rescheduled. The anime is simulcast on Crunchyroll shortly after the Japanese broadcast.
Studio BONES FILM is in charge of the animation, and the anime is set to run for 2 consecutive cours.
We had a chance to interview Kei Urana and Hideyoshi Andou, the creators of Gachiakuta, at this year’s Anime Expo 2025. Also present was the anime’s producer Naoki Amano, and the three spoke about the anime adaptation and their production process. The staff for the anime includes:
- Director: Fumihiko Suganuma
- Series Composition: Hiroshi Seko
- Character Design & Chief Animation Director: Satoshi Ishino
- Music: Taku Iwasaki (NEW)
- Animation Production: BONES FILM
The official synopsis is described by Crunchyroll:
Crawl back from the abyss of Hell to change this lousy world!
Rudo lives in the slums of a floating town, where the poor scrape by under the shadow of the rich who live a sumptuous life, simply casting their garbage off the side, into the abyss. Then one day, he’s falsely accused of murder, and his wrongful conviction leads to an unimaginable punishment—exile off the edge, with the rest of the trash. Down on the surface, the cast-off waste of humanity has bred vicious monsters, and if Rudo wants to have any hope of discovering the truth and seeking vengeance against those who cast him into Hell, he will have to master a new power and join a group known as the Cleaners who battle the hulking trash beasts of the Pit!
