The Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction anime series will be available to stream on Crunchyroll starting May 23 at 8pm PST. This release will be in an episodic format expected to run for 18 installments on the popular anime streaming platform. Rather than being a simple re-edit of the anime movie adaptations of Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction, the anime series will include content not included in either film to create an original viewing experience adapting Asanoā€™s story.

In Japan, Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction was adapted into a two-part anime film, with the first installment debuting on March 22, 2024. and its second part premiering on May 24, 2024. The second film will reportedly include a different ending than the manga series, which concluded its run in February 2022. It is currently unknown if either of the Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction movies, in their original feature film presentation, will ever receive an official North American release beyond the episodic format.

Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction follows two high school girls, Kadode Koyama and Oran ā€œOntanā€ Nakagawa, who try to go about their daily lives three years after extraterrestrials descended on Japan. This shared otherworldly experience heightens the existential crises of growing up, with the two friends as they approach adulthood after a brush with intelligent life from the other side of the cosmos. For those interested, Asanoā€™s original Dead Dead Demons Dededede Destruction manga series has received an official English-language translation published by Viz Media and collected in 12 volumes.
