New Netflix Anime Titles for August 2021 including Shaman King and Eden Zero
New anime titles are coming to Netflix this August 2021 including the popular Shaman King series!
Check out the other titles coming to Netflix this August after the cut.
Shaman King 2021
Going back to the new Shaman King series, here’s a little background. This is a new adaptation of the manga series written and illustrated by Hiroyuki Takei. This series is poised to adapt all 35 volumes of the manga and is being produced by Bridge together with director Joji Furuta. Music will be done by Yuki Hayashi while character design chores were managed by Satohiko Sano. The series first aired in Japan on April 1, 2021 on TV Tokyo stations in the country. Check out the trailer for Shaman King below.
The series also managed to bring back the original voice cast and will have a total of 52 episodes. And get this, the original artist who performed the 2001 version’s opening and closing, Megumi Hayashibara will also perform the new series’ opening and closing songs. There’s also a second ending theme titled “Adieu” performed by Yui Horie.
Shaman King is slated to stream August 9
EDENS ZERO
Edens Zero is an anime adaptation of the manga written and illustrated by Hiro Mashima. This was first published in June 2018 in Kodansha’s Weekly Shonen Magazine and collected in 16 volumes by July 2021. This follows the story of Shiki Granbell who goes on an adventure across different planets in search of the cosmic entity simply known as “Mother”.
Edens Zero is slated to stream August 28
Last of the anime titles being highlighted for Netflix’s August 2021 lineup is the Monster Hunter: Legends of the Guild.

This CG-anime feature film is set for release August 12
Totally hyped for the remade Shaman King and willing to give Edens Zero a try. Big pass on Monster Hunter though. Definitely not feeling this series right from the trailer alone. I actually feel like re-watching the Monster Hunter movie starring Milla Jovovich would be more interesting.
