Crunchyroll to Stream Black Torch TV Anime This July

Crunchyroll has confirmed they will be streaming the upcoming Black Torch TV anime adaptation when it premieres this July.

About Black Torch

Based on the manga by Tsuyoshi Takaki, Black Torch follows Jiro Azuma, a young man who can communicate with animals and becomes involved with supernatural forces when he encounters a demon cat named Rago. The story blends action and supernatural elements as Jiro navigates a world where humans and demons coexist in an uneasy balance.

The original manga ran in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2016 to 2018, gaining a dedicated following for its unique take on demon-human relationships and fast-paced action sequences. The series stood out for its creative approach to supernatural storytelling and dynamic character interactions.

What to Expect

With Crunchyroll handling the streaming distribution, fans can expect the anime to be available with subtitles for international audiences. The platform has been expanding its simulcast offerings, making new seasonal anime accessible to viewers worldwide shortly after they air in Japan.

While specific details about the animation studio, staff, and cast have not been announced yet, the July debut window places Black Torch among the summer 2024 anime season lineup. More information about the production team and voice cast is expected to be revealed in the coming months as the premiere date approaches.

Fans of supernatural action anime will want to keep an eye out for this adaptation when it hits Crunchyroll this summer.
