Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc is officially coming to Crunchyroll for its streaming debut.

As confirmed by the anime streamer on its official website, the Chainsaw Man movie's streaming release is slated for a Spring 2026 window. In anime terms, Spring typically refers to the months of April, May, and June.

While Chainsaw Man coming to Crunchyroll isn't surprising in itself, Reze Arc received a late October release in most territories – ensuring a possible six-month turnaround for one of the biggest names in anime. It also appears to be leapfrogging Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle, which doesn't have a streaming release date set as of writing.

Upon its release, Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc became one of the highest-grossing anime movies of all time, garnering almost $185 million at the box office. The feature also saw wider acclaim elsewhere, becoming the highest-rated movie of 2025 on Letterboxd. It missed out on Best Animated Feature at the 2026 Oscars nominations, however.
