August was an exceptional month for the anime industry. The best of the yearly releases came from this month itself. The list of Anime Releasing In September 2021 looks pretty exciting already. With the giant slate that Netflix gave the fans last month, they are still busy binging the new releases. But it’s time that fans start making time for new shows because the upcoming month is going to be full of action, thrill, and drama.
From Bakugan to The Deer King Film, not only the television screens but the theatres will also find a lack of space once these anime releases. All fans need to do is mark their calendars before time.
The Deer King Film
Since the first announcement in June 2021, fans have been highly anticipating The Deer King Film. Originally known as the Shika no Ō: Yuna to Yakusoku no Tabi, the story of the film is based on the fantasy novel series by Nahoko Uehashi. Studio Production IG is responsible for the animation of the movie. The Deer King tells the story of the medieval period where the Empire of Aquafa has acquired the Empire of Zol.
But the two territories continue to fight over a piece of land called the Fire House Territory. Things escalate quickly when the protagonist accidentally unleashes a deadly virus in the Aquafa Kingdom. Thus, the film is all set to bombard fans with action, thrill, and bewilderment once it releases in the theatres. So, The Deer King is releasing on September 18, 2021, in Japan.
Free! The Final Stroke Part 1
Free! The Final Stroke is the fifth feature film in the swimming anime franchise. The movie is a direct continuation of the Free! Dive To The Future anime that ended course in September 2018. The Kyoto Animation production is going to be a two-part anime. The new Free! film is easily one of the most-anticipated Anime Releasing In September 2021. The story of the third season perfectly set the stage for an incredible film to come. After losing the All-Japan Invitational by a small strike, Haruka Nanase and Rin Matsuoka will join the competition once again.
The new film is likely to feature yet another international competition where Rin and Haruka will train and compete beside the best talents of Japan. So, Free! The Final Stroke Part 1 will release in the Japanese theatres on September 17, 2021.
Princess Principal Crown Handler Part 2
The Princess Principle Crown Handler Part 2 is the second edition to the six-part film franchise. Princess Principal is the original vision of director Masaki Tachibana. The film will continue the story that was left in the debut film. The story will follow Team White Pigeon. The team of spies will trace the mole who leaked information about the Queen’s schedule. The second film will focus more on the internal conflicts of the team as only one of them could be the murderer.
3Hz and Actas studio are responsible for the animation work of the second film, much like the first one. So, the release date of Princess Principle Crown Handler Part 2 was announced way back in July 2021. The second chapter will release on September 23, 2021, in the Japanese theatres.
Bakugan Geogan Rising Part 2
The Geogan Rising version of the Bakugan franchise has already landed on Japanese television screens. Last week, Spin Master announced that the franchise will now release for western fans in September 2021. Bakugan Geogan Rising Part 2 anime series will follow the story of Dragonoid as he returns back to his duties as a hero. As the title suggests, the biggest challenge for the team is going to be Geogan which is almost as strong as Bakugan.
TMS Entertainment is responsible for the animation of the series. The 52-episode series will release on Roblox and Netflix in the coming month. The series will premiere on September 8, 2021, on Roblox and on September 15, 2021, on Netflix. Thus, the Bakugan series is one of the most-anticipated Anime Releasing In September 2021.
Ryoma! Rebirth Movie The Prince of Tennis
The Princess of Tennis film was originally announced back in 2019 at the Jump Festa’19 event. The movie is the fifth edition of the franchise after two anime series and two feature films. So, Ryoma! Rebirth Movie The Prince of Tennis is an adaptation of the storyline that lies between the end of The Prince of Tennis manga and the start of The New Prince of Tennis manga. Thus, the events of the story are going to be an original plot.
It is likely that the story will showcase Ryoma Echizen in yet another tennis championship. Earlier, the sports film was scheduled for a spring 2021 release. But the pandemic led to an uncalled delay. Hence, the third feature film is now releasing on September 3, 2021, in Japanese theatres.
