One of the wildest anime releases of the last decade is finally coming back for a new wave of episodes after six long years, and a new trailer is showing it off ahead of its worldwide debut this April. It’s been a great year for new anime releases thus far, and it’s set to continue with even more new releases through the rest of the year. The Spring 2026 anime schedule is even more exciting as it’s packed with a ton of new shows, and that includes the long awaited comeback for one wild series in particular.

The anime adaptation for Q Hayashida’s Dorohedoro first made its debut back in 2020, and really made waves through a weak year of anime thanks to just how wild of a world it really was. A second season of the anime was finally confirmed to be in the works a few years after, and had been delayed a few times before setting its 2026 release window in place. Now as the anime prepares for its return on April 1st worldwide, you can check out the new trailer for Dorohedoro Season 2 below.
