Tatsuki Fujimoto is now one of the most compelling authors in contemporary manga and anime, with a visceral writing style, emotionally charged work, and the skill to juxtapose surrealism with profound human understanding.
Following the roaring success of Chainsaw Man, people are eagerly anticipating what Fujimoto will do next. As it happens, there are several major future Tatsuki Fujimoto projects in the pipeline, starting with an anthology anime series, looking as far as feature films and new manga ideas.
The following is a list of all known future Tatsuki Fujimoto projects that have been confirmed.
1. Tatsuki Fujimoto 17–26 Anthology Anime Series

This collection of anime is based on eight earlier one-shot stories that Fujimoto wrote between the ages of 17 and 26, and provides an insight into his creative formative years. It will be released worldwide on Prime Video on November 7, 2025 (November 8 in Japan).
All eight episodes are recorded in a different studio: ZEXCS, Lapin Track, GRAPH77, 100studio, Studio Kafka, and P.A. Works, and each story has a different aesthetic. Titles of stories include A Couple Clucking Chickens Were Still Kickin' in the Schoolyard, Love is Blind, Mermaid Rhapsody, Nayuta of the Prophecy, and more.
To Tatsuki Fujimoto enthusiasts, this will offer a rare glimpse into the creator's early experiments, themes, and stylistic origins, both absurdist romance and post-apocalyptic drama.
2. Chainsaw Man: The Movie – Reze Arc

This proposed movie is based on the long-awaited Reze (Bomb Girl) narrative of Chainsaw Man, which follows directly on the original first season of the anime. Directed by Tatsuya Yoshihara and written by Hiroshi Seko, produced by MAPPA, it is bound to keep the anime high-octane and emotional in tone.
It will release in theatres in Japan on September 19, 2025, and internationally (in some Asian markets and in the U.S. and U.K. in particular) towards the end of September and through October.
Its Music consists of pieces by Kensuke Ushio, an introductory tune Iris out by Kenshi Yonezu, and a finale song JANE DOE, written jointly by Yonezu and Hikaru Utada. This film will delight longtime readers and anime fans alike by giving a film and faith-based version of one of the emotionally touching arcs of Chainsaw Man.
3. New Manga Concept: Romantic Horror Comedy

In an interview, Tatsuki Fujimoto announced that his next manga, whose title remains unknown, is a dark comedy romance in which several heroines compete over who should get to love the successful one, and so the unsuccessful ones come back as spirits to haunt the successful one.
Not much is known, but Fujimoto called it haunting yet ironic, combining his uncharacteristic depiction of emotional depth with sadistic humor. This idea implies that Fujimoto is taking a risk and venturing into the genre-bending world of romantic comedy, blending supernatural horror and existential fear.
Although no release date was given, the premise has received glowing reviews from fans of his work, who are looking forward to his next original series.
4. (Possibly) Further Chainsaw Man Anime Adaptations

Although not officially announced as a project other than the Reze Arc, with that movie and Fujimoto still interested in Chainsaw Man, there is a sense of future animation of later arcs. According to Studio MAPPA president, the success of the Reze arc will determine whether the subsequent arcs will be on TV or in theatres.
Tatsuki Fujimoto is deeply involved with these adaptations, implying a high probability that the continuity of the chains will be based on his interpretation of how to pace the story and its emotional impact.
5. (Speculative) New Art or Collaborations

Keen attention should be given to announcements of events involving large crowds, like Jump Festa, Anime Expo, or festival circuits, as new Fujimoto works usually appear here.
Summary of Upcoming Tatsuki Fujimoto Projects
1. Tatsuki Fujimoto 1726 collection of anime: Coming to Prime Video November 2025
2. Chain Saw Man: Reze Arc Film: Theatrical release beginning September 2025
3. New romantic horror comedy manga idea: Plot unknown, description not available.
4. Adaptation as a potential future Chainsaw Man film: Probably requires approval of Reze Arc.
5. Possible, unconfirmed speculative collaborations or one-shots.
As a Tatsuki Fujimoto fan, the list of future undertakings is very diverse and enriched. The Tatsuki Fujimoto 1726 anthology will also give life to early and formative works with varying visual stylizations. The Reze Arc movie will not be any lighter than the Chainsaw Man promises to be.
Meanwhile, the manga teased romantic horror comedy hints that Fujimoto is experimenting with new narratives. Adaptations of Chainsaw Man arcs are still possible in the future, and speculative one-shots or special projects are still possible. Taken as a whole, these future Tatsuki Fujimoto pieces are likely to explore further the scope, heart, and storytelling talents of the creator.
