New Mononoke Movie Trailer Drops: What You Need to Know Before the Release!

Summary

  • New trailer for Mononoke Second Chapter: Hinezumi released, set to debut in Japan on March 14.
  • Possible Netflix release estimated based on previous movie; recommendation to watch TV series first.
  • Third movie announced, can be watched independently from TV series but best watched for a better experience.

A fresh teaser for the sequel titled “Mononoke Second Chapter: Hinezumi” or “Mononoke The Movie: The Ashes of Rage“, has been unveiled! You can catch the first movie, as well as the original TV series, on Netflix.

The films are a new addition to the 2007 anime “Mononoke,” animated by Toei Animation. Technically, they can be considered a spin-off of “Ayakashi: Samurai Horror Tales” (2006), an anthology horror anime. A new look for them was recently revealed.

The upcoming movie is scheduled for release on March 14 in Japan, and a fresh trailer has been unveiled. This sneak peek features the theme song titled “Hana Musou,” sung by Aina the End. You can look forward to streaming this film on Netflix at a later date. Here’s a glimpse:

When Is Mononoke: Ashes of Rage Coming to Netflix?

Though Netflix has yet to specify the exact release date for this film, we can make an educated guess about its potential premiere on their platform by considering the timeline of the first movie.

The film “Mononoke: Phantom in the Rain” had its Japanese premiere on July 26, 2024, with a global release on Netflix following four months later, on November 28, 2024. If this pattern persists, we can expect the movie to arrive on Netflix in July 2026.

A third movie is set to be released in Japan, but the date remains to be announced.

Is It OK to Watch the Movies Without Checking the Series?

As a bystander, I’ve noticed that these stories stand on their own, even though they share the same universe as the TV series. Yet, if you want a richer immersion, I’d suggest catching up with the TV series initially (though you could always save it for later too).

Mononoke the Movie: The Ashes of Rage is coming to Netflix at a later date.
