Adaptations of video games continue to be big business. During Opening Night
Live at Gamescom 2025, we learned that the punishing Sekiro: Shadows Die
Twice by FromSoftware will be turning into an anime show. Sekiro: No Defeat
will be available exclusively on Crunchyroll some time during 2026. The show
will be directed by Kenichi Kutsuna, who previously worked as an animator on
the One Punch Man and Naruto: Shippuden series.

The vibe in the No Defeat trailer does feel distinct from its source
material, with a hand-drawn aesthetic that's a little more vibrant than the
muted and immersive world of Shadows Die Twice. But the violence is
unchanged, with a couple pretty grisly attacks that point to the anime
maintaining the "kill ingeniously" tagline from the game.
