as a halloween lover as well as an anime lover, I always love horror/halloween themed anime. with October coming in less than a month, why not put out some halloween watches?

Eden's Zero won't be returning to Netflix as it seems the sequel's rights went over to Crunchyroll, I'll update the list if the next Hathaway Flash Gundam films are slated to release on Netflix. We now know the film cast for the Scott Pilgrim film will return to its anime adaptation by Science SARU, so far, we don't know if it'll even be added to the MAL database like other IPs supposed "anime" adaptations, in quotation marks because Netflix can call it anime all it wants but some don't count.

Chi.: Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite has been releasing only in Netflix for the time being but isn't marked as an exclusive for the platform.

This will be an endlessly ever growing and changing list being updated regularly, adding in new promising releases once announced and removing ones that have already started or finished airing.

Here's a little treat to everyone who can't wait for the spooky season! (Like me.)
