What's new
Streaming platform Netflix is continuing to grow its animated catalog for the Fall 2026 season. Following a busy October filled with exclusive sequels, the schedule for November 2026 is shorter than usual, focusing on two brand-new releases alongside several ongoing series that drop weekly episodes.
About the series
One upcoming debut is Fool Night, adapted by Studio Shaft, which arrives on November 26, 2026. The storyline takes place in a distant, post-apocalyptic future where Earth is covered in thick clouds, eliminating sunlight and lowering oxygen levels. To survive, society utilizes a technology called Transfloration, implanting seeds into impoverished or near-death people to convert them into oxygen-producing plants. Netflix is releasing the series in a batch format, which has drawn attention alongside minor narrative tone shifts from the manga.
Another arrival is an adult animated steampunk Western created by LeSean Thomas—famous for Yasuke and Cannon Busters—and produced by Studio Mir. Premiering on November 3, 2026, the plot centers on a father who protects his family as a judge, jury, and executioner in a landscape filled with outlaws, machines, and supernatural threats. The exact title of this steampunk Western is not specified in the source; please check the official notice.
What to expect
The total episode count and detailed release schedule for the steampunk Western are not specified in the source; please check the official notice. Beyond the new arrivals, subscribers can watch several ongoing titles and recent additions on the platform:
- JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run, which continues its weekly broadcast.
- Snowball Earth, which is releasing weekly episodes after arriving last month.
- Daemons of the Shadow Realm, which added weekly episodes following its Netflix debut in July.
- Second seasons of Ramparts of the Ice, Ranma 1/2, and Blue Box, all of which premiered last month exclusively on the platform.
