If you grew up racing home from school to catch the latest episode of Naruto or Bleach, this one is for you. Cineverse just announced a Fall 2026 lineup for its RetroCrush streaming service that reads like a love letter to the golden age of Shonen Jump, and some of the biggest titles are already live.
According to a press release covered by ComicBook.com today, RetroCrush is rolling out a wave of classic anime films and series across November and December. The headliners are the non-canon movies from the legendary Big Three era — the films those shows spun off while they were dominating the airwaves in the 2000s.
Available right now:
- Bleach: Hell Verse — Ichigo's fiery trip to the underworld, in all its over-the-top glory
- Vampire Knight — the full series, for everyone who lived through the vampire-romance boom
- Genocyber — a gloriously unhinged slice of 90s cyberpunk ultraviolence
- Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon R: The Movie — a moonlit classic that still holds up
- Sugar Sugar Rune — magical-girl sweetness with a surprisingly sharp edge
Streaming today, November 13: Naruto the Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow — the very first Naruto film — plus Accel World and Captain Tsubasa in English dub, with the original Japanese version of Captain Tsubasa arriving December 4.
Still to come: Hunter x Hunter: Phantom Rouge lands November 20, Hikaru no Go follows November 27, and December 4 brings the 1983 live-action The Girl Who Leapt Through Time — not the beloved Mamoru Hosoda film, but the original adaptation of the 1967 novel, finally watchable in the U.S.
What makes this drop special is how hard these classics have been to find. Weekly Shonen Jump launched in 1968 and became the best-selling manga magazine of all time, giving us Dragon Ball, One Piece, Naruto, Bleach and more — yet the older anime adaptations have bounced between services or vanished entirely as streaming libraries chased the newest simulcasts. RetroCrush is doing the opposite: digging into the vault.
So grab the popcorn, queue up Hell Verse, and relive the era when every week ended with a new transformation, a new rival, and a new reason to believe. Which of these are you rewatching first?
