Crunchyroll has a big update for Chainsaw Man fans. This September, the platform will release a special two-part movie that covers the highlights of the anime’s first season. Instead of jumping straight to Season 2, the next story, called the Reze Arc, is being shown as a movie.
This two-part compilation is a great way for fans to enjoy Denji’s story again in a shorter, movie-style format before the new chapter officially begins.
Crunchyroll Brings Chainsaw Man Recap Movie Ahead of Reze Arc Release
The compilation movie is not a new story. It is a collection of the best and most important scenes from the first season, combined into two movie-length parts. It gives a full summary of the action, emotions, and key battles that made the anime so popular. This format is perfect for both old fans who want to relive the story and new viewers who want a quick way to catch up.
Crunchyroll has officially confirmed that the two-part compilation movie will start streaming in September across North America, Central America, and other regions. This streaming release is separate from the upcoming Reze Arc movie, which will tell the next part of the story in full detail.
The Reze Arc movie is set to release in Japanese theaters on September 19, 2025. After that, it will be released in some Asian countries on September 24. A global release, including the United States and the United Kingdom, will take place on October 29, 2025. In India, the movie will release in theaters on September 26, 2025. It will be shown in Japanese with English subtitles and is being brought by Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures India.
