Director Yuichiro Hayashi marked the announcement with a commemorative illustration featuring the demon Haru. Studio MAPPA will return to produce the new season. No release date or distribution partners have been disclosed. The second season premiered on April 1 with a simultaneous global rollout across Crunchyroll, Netflix, Animation Digital Network, and Ani-One Asia. The first season debuted on Netflix Japan in January 2020 and streamed worldwide that May. The Dorohedoro manga by Q Hayashida ran from 2000 to 2018 across 23 volumes. Viz Media publishes the English edition. The first season was nominated for Anime of the Year at the 2021 Crunchyroll Anime Awards. Toho also released a music video for the second season's opening theme \"Zettai Must Danmen\" by (K)NoW_NAME alongside the renewal announcement.","why_it_matters":"The swift renewal signals Toho's confidence in the franchise as a long-term streaming asset, even though Dorohedoro has remained a cult property rather than a mainstream hit like MAPPA's other titles.","published_at":"2026-05-27T17:15:46.000Z","source_count":6,"sources":["Anime News Network","The Hollywood Reporter Anime","Crunchyroll News","Anime Corner","Anime Trending","MyAnimeList"],"citations":[{"source":"Anime News Network","title":"Dorohedoro Anime Gets 3rd Season","url":"https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2026-05-27/dorohedoro-anime-gets-3rd-season/.237866"},{"source":"The Hollywood Reporter Anime","title":"Toho Greenlights Third Season of Cult Anime 'Dorohedoro'","url":"https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/toho-greenlights-third-season-cult-anime-dorohedoro-1236606426/"},{"source":"Crunchyroll News","title":"Dorohedoro Season 3 Anime Announced","url":"https://www.crunchyroll.com/news/latest/2026/5/27/dorohedoro-season-3-anime-announced"},{"source":"Anime Corner","title":"Dorohedoro Season 3 Officially Announced, Gets New Illustration by Director","url":"https://animecorner.me/dorohedoro-season-3-officially-announced/"},{"source":"Anime Trending","title":"Dorohedoro Anime Series Gets 3rd Season","url":"https://anitrendz.net/news/2026/05/27/dorohedoro-anime-series-gets-3rd-season"},{"source":"MyAnimeList","title":"Third Season of 'Dorohedoro' Announced","url":"https://myanimelist.net/news/74277867"}],"license_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","entities":{"anime_titles":["Dorohedoro"],"manga_titles":[],"work_titles":[],"studios":["MAPPA"],"people":["Yuichiro Hayashi","Q Hayashida"],"type":"announcement","domain":"anime","is_roundup":false}}}
