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.
The story of Uzumaki, described by VIZ Media, which publishes the manga in English:
Kurouzu-cho, a small fogbound town on the coast of Japan, is cursed. According to Shuichi Saito, the withdrawn boyfriend of teenager Kirie Goshima, their town is haunted not by a person or being but a pattern: UZUMAKI, the spiral—the hypnotic secret shape of the world.
