Rudo and Cleaners’ adventures will continue on Sunday, October 12, 2025, at 8:00 a.m. PT / 11:00 a.m. ET, with the release of the second cour of the hit anime series based on Kei Urana‘s manga Gachiakuta. Available only on Crunchyroll, new episodes will arrive weekly on Sundays.
A new trailer has arrived to prepare fans for the action to come. In the trailer released on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, Rudo deals with the consequences of being mercilessly thrown into The Pit as he encounters its barbarous inhabitants and hunts its mutated trash beasts. In the second cour, Rudo and his allies will embark on a challenging quest back to the Sphere, all while attempting to find out who framed him for a senseless act of violence—hunting the corrupt parties who framed him for murder with the same veracity as he hunts The Pit’s trash beasts.

In addition, the Gachiakuta Anime Production Committee has announced that virtual artist Mori Calliope, hololive’s resident reaper and longtime Gachiakuta stan, will perform the second cour’s opening song. Calliope’s original song, “LET’S JUST CRASH,” is a blend of grunge and punk rock inspired by the themes of Gachiakuta‘s underground wasteland.
“With Gachiakuta, since it’s my favorite series of all time, I really tried to take inspiration from every part of the world that I love,” the VTube told Mashable. “Not just the setting, but the characters too. For example, the rage that Rudo feels, and everything he’s going through in this world of trash and dystopia, but it’s also so, so beautiful. There’s hope within all that ruin. I wanted to bring all of that together in a song that says, ‘No matter what kind of garbage situation we’re in, let’s make our dream come true. Let’s accomplish our goal.'”
Calliope continued, “The gritty world also influenced the sound design. I specifically asked my producer to include more metallic, gritty, ‘trash-core’ sounds, something that really reflected Gachiakuta‘s atmosphere. I hope that comes through to the audience when they hear it.”
Blending shonen action with a distinct graffiti-infused art style, Gachiakuta is directed by Fumihiko Suganuma, who is making his directorial debut, with series composition by Hiroshi Seko (Attack on Titan, Chainsaw Man, JUJUTSU KAISEN), and music by Taku Iwasaki (Bungo Stray Dogs).
