Classic Anime Series to Return With New Revival - ComicBook.com
Samurai Pizza Cats are making a comeback following their recent video game announcement.
comicbook.comHere’s the latest I could gather from recent coverage and releases about Samurai Pizza Cats.
Key updates
- Revival and comics on the way: Reports indicate a revival push including a new 200-page comic book from Mad Cave Studios and Nakama Press, with a planned release in 2026. This suggests the franchise is getting renewed attention beyond its original TV run [source coverage referencing ComicBook.com’s 2025 report and related 2026 comic release details].[1]
- Video game in development: In conjunction with the comic revival, there are indications of a new action RPG titled Samurai Pizza Cats: Blast From The Past, planned for release in 2026, signaling expanded cross-media presence for the feline heroes.[1]
- Streaming and availability: The original series has circulated on various platforms over the years, with Crunchyroll having hosted the show and other services (Prime Video, Tubi, Peacock) previously carrying it at different times. Availability can change, so checking current catalogs is advisable if you want to rewatch.[3][4][5]
What this means for fans
- If you’re hoping for a new TV series, the strongest signals in 2025–2026 point to comics and a video game expanding the universe rather than an immediate new TV season, though future TV revival could still be announced.[1]
- Collectors and long-time fans can expect new printed material in 2026, potentially accompanied by cross-media tie-ins that widen the franchise’s footprint beyond the original anime.[1]
Where to watch the original
- Crunchyroll historically hosted Samurai Pizza Cats, and other services have cycled in and out of availability. If you want to revisit the classic, that platform is a good starting point, but verify current availability since catalogs change.[3]
