AMC Networks’ HIDIVE announced today that the new sci-fi drama anime series Dusk Beyond the End of the World, now the official English-language series name for Towa no Yuugure, will stream exclusively as part of the anime streaming service’s Fall 2025 simulcast season. This original anime is set in a futuristic world where technology has transformed society. With each new episode, audiences will experience this unknown world together — discovering that love and relationships now exist between humans and androids.
HIDIVE also debuted the official English subtitled trailer for the upcoming show (watch it below) and revealed that, in advance of the series’ debut, it will host the world premiere of Dusk Beyond the End of the World Episodes 1 & 2 on Sunday, August 24 at the Javits Center in New York City as part of the streamer’s Anime NYC 2025 programming schedule.
“We’re excited to stream the new sci-fi drama Dusk Beyond the End of the World this October as part of our Fall 2025 simulcast line-up,” said John Ledford, President of HIDIVE. “We look forward to sharing this truly unique original anime, which will transport audiences to an unknown futuristic world that will be explored together with each new episode. Fans will not want to miss this journey!”
Synopsis: The world is on the verge of changing from an old fashioned society to a new world, due to issues such as gender, race and compliance along with technological innovations such as an evolving AI. Even in this world where black and white is now gray, we believe that “love” will always exist but in myriad forms and not just between people. This includes love between human and robot and its unique expression. The beauty of these emotions will be shown sometimes beautifully, sometimes brutally, and sometimes comically. How long can this love last? When a robot outlives its human partner, can their love hope to endure?
Dusk Beyond the End of the World, or Towa no Yuugure, is produced by P.A.Works, with direction and series composition by Naokatsu Tsuda (JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure), character drafting by Aoi Tayama, character design by Yoshiko Saito and music by Masahiro Tokuda.
