Adult Swim streamed a trailer for the anime on July 2023, building anticipation for the highly-anticipated adaptation. The four-episode anime was originally slated to debut on Toonami in 2020 before it premiered in Japan, but it was delayed to 2021. It was then delayed again to October 2022, and most recently, delayed again in June 2022.
Warner Bros. Discovery describes the story of Uzumaki as follows:
“Let’s leave this town together,” asks Shuichi Saito, a former classmate of Kirie Goshima, a high school girl who was born and grew up in Kurouzu-cho. Everything from a strange whirlwind, billowing smoke from the crematorium, and the residents is turning into spirals. People’s eyes spin in whirls, a tongue spirals, and the bodies twist unnaturally. In an attempt to escape the curse of the spirals, Kirie decides to flee from Kuouzu-cho, but can she get away from this turmoil?
