Netflix Japan has announced that City Hunter 2, the sequel to the 2024 live-action adaptation of City Hunter, will stream worldwide in 2027. The announcement was made on March 26, which is also the birthday of the main character, Ryo Saeba.
The first City Hunter live-action film was released on Netflix on April 25, 2024. For the sequel, Keiichiro Shiraki will replace Yuichi Sato as director. Actors Ryohei Suzuki and Misato Morita will return to play Ryo Saeba and Kaori Makimura.
In addition, the original City Hunter anime series, along with its specials and films, is currently available on Crunchyroll:
Ryo Saeba, the legendary City Hunter, is a first-class sweeper for hire, taking on jobs from protecting beautiful women to taking out bad guys permanently. He can be a private detective or hitman, whatever the case calls for, and it often requires the use of his superhuman marksmanship. But even so, Ryo can’t do it alone. His partner is Kaori Makimura, the younger sister of his murdered best friend. Kaori serves as his assistant, while also protecting their attractive clients from Ryo’s “mokkori” advances with her trusty supply of 100 ton hammers.
