The film, which opened in Japan on February 6 and earned over 151 million yen in its first three days, is a compilation of the 12-episode series with new content. It follows super human Chiharu (voiced by Momoka Terasawa) and cyborg Makina (Anna Nagase) who are sentenced to clean an interplanetary train as community service. Alongside this title, Netflix listed seven other anime beginning U.S. streaming in May and June: BLUE LOCK VS. U-20 JAPAN and My Dress-Up Darling Season 2 on May 25; Assassination Classroom Season 2, Shangri-La Frontier Season 2, One Piece: Whole Cake Island 6 and 7, and Akane-banashi on June 1. The Milky☆Subway film is a follow-up to Kameyama's 2022 short Milky☆Highway, which started as a graduation project and has accumulated over 8.7 million views on YouTube. Kameyama directed, wrote, produced, and handled character designs, modeling, and animation mostly alone. A new version with added scenes, titled Extra Service Milky☆Subway Local Train to the Theater, will screen in Japan starting June 12 in MX4D, 4DX, and 2D formats.","why_it_matters":"Netflix's addition of Milky☆Subway marks a rare mainstream platform pickup for a solo creator's CG anime that originated as a graduation project, alongside a slate that includes major sequels and a new adaptation.","published_at":"2026-05-20T04:17:01.000Z","source_count":3,"sources":["Anime News Network","Anime Trending","Niche Gamer (Anime)"],"citations":[{"source":"Anime News Network","title":"Netflix Streams Milky☆Subway: The Galactic Limited Express Film on June 1","url":"https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2026-05-19/netflix-streams-milky-subway-the-galactic-limited-express-film-on-june-1/.237527"},{"source":"Anime Trending","title":"Milky☆Subway: The Galactic Limited Express Movie Coming to Netflix on June 1","url":"https://anitrendz.net/news/2026/05/19/milky%e2%98%86subway-the-galactic-limited-express-movie-coming-to-netflix-on-june-1"},{"source":"Niche Gamer (Anime)","title":"Milky☆Subway: The Galactic Limited Express to be streamed on Netflix","url":"https://nichegamer.com/milky%e2%98%86subway-the-galactic-limited-express-to-be-streamed-on-netflix/"}],"license_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","entities":{"anime_titles":["Milky☆Subway: The Galactic Limited Express","BLUE LOCK VS.
