April was another good month for anime for Netflix with the release of titles such as Season 2 of BAKI and Ingress the Animation. May will continue the Original anime releases with the highly anticipated release of Revisions. So while many of our subscribers should be revising for their exams, set aside some time to revise on Revisions instead. Here’s everything we know about the latest Original anime, including the plot, cast, trailer, and release date.
Revisions is an upcoming Netflix Original mecha-anime series created by Makoto Fukami and Taichi Hashimoto. The series has already debuted in Japan before its global release on Netflix.

Second-year high school student Daisuke Toujima was abducted when he was a young child. Involved in a special phenomenon called the Shibuya Drift, he and his childhood friends Gai, Ru, Marimari, and Keisaku were transferred to the center of Shibuya over 300 years into the future. The world they once knew has changed. What awaits them is ruins, wilderness, and the Revisions, a cyborg species intent on killing. Now they have a responsibility to Shibuya. Can they save the city? Will Daisuke be able to return home to his original time? We’ll see.
