Two highly anticipated new anime shows are arriving on Netflix this week – and they're both dropping on the same day.
Baban Baban Ban Vampire and Sakamoto Days are both premiering on the streamer this Saturday, January 11, kicking off its anime offerings this year with a bang. New episodes of both shows are set to drop weekly until the end of their first seasons, with Sakamoto Days taking a mid-season break and returning in July.
Baban Baban Ban Vampire follows Mori Ranmaru, a public bathhouse employee whose real identity is a 450-year-old vampire with a thirst for virgin blood. Sakamoto Days, meanwhile, is another case of alter egos. It follows Taro Sakamoto, a former legendary hitman who now runs a convenience store after he fell in love and retired from the killing game. However, his peaceful existence as a family man is threatened when some characters from his past come looking for revenge – and he'll stop at nothing to protect his new life.
That's not all that's coming to Netflix this year, either – Castlevania Nocturne season 2, Devil May Cry, The Summer Hikaru Died, and more are all on the way.
