Where to watch the new anime?
Fans outside of Japan have been wondering where they would be able to see the new anime, which was announced to be released in October as part of the Fall 2021 anime schedule.
According to today's Weekly Shonen Sunday issue, "Komi Can't Communicate" is coming to Netflix worldwide!

Komi Can’t Communicate was originally rumored to be broadcast on TV Tokyo in Japan and would then be available to watch on Netflix Japan shortly after.
The anime will be available to watch on Netflix in 190 countries and territories outside of Japan, according to the publication of its latest teaser. It will include an eight-language dub and 31-language subtitles. Check out the trailer in the video below to help you celebrate!
The anime Komi Can’t Communicate will premiere on Netflix in Japan this fall, but there is no fixed date for its distribution in other countries since it will vary from its October 6th debut in Japan.
This doesn’t definitely mean it won’t be accessible to watch until 2022 (as per Netflix’s normal release timetable, which sees a series held until it can be published as a single season or batch with all of its dubs ready to go), but it’s a good bet.

The series will be composed by Deko Akao, with character design by Atsuko Nakajima. Shoko Komi is voiced by Aoi Koga, Hitohito Tadano is spoken by Gakuto Kajiwara, and Najimi Osana is voiced by Rie Murakawa.
