Odekake Kozame: Second Theatrical Film Heads to a Sunken City
The new film tells a longer adventure set in a sunken city. A first video and an official teaser visual have been released.
Odekake Kozame is getting a second theatrical film. Eiga Odekake Kozame: Mizu no Machi no Omoide is set to arrive in cinemas in 2027, according to author Penguin Box. On November 15, 2026, the production released a teaser visual and a first video. No release date has been announced yet, and a German cinema release is not confirmed.
The source material is Odekake Kozame Chohen: Kozame to Mizu no Machi, which will be published by KADOKAWA on November 19, 2026. In it, Kozame-chan and the anglerfish Anko-chan visit a place that lies underwater after the construction of a dam. The film thus tells a longer, coherent adventure for the first time. The series began with short drawings that Penguin Box published on social networks.
The teaser visual shows the two among submerged houses and passing fish, while streets and buildings of the former town can be made out in the background.
This video will only connect to YouTube once you play it.
Kana Hanazawa again voices Kozame-chan, Megumi Han takes over as Anko-chan, and Misaki Kuno can be heard as Usame-chan. Chihiro Kumano directs, Hiroaki Nagashima writes the screenplay, and Ayumi Takeuchi designs the characters. Animation is again provided by ENGI, a studio that also belongs to the consolidation of several anime studios announced by KADOKAWA. The cast is listed on the official film website.
The first film, Odekake Kozame: Tokai no Otomodachi, played in Japanese cinemas in August 2025 and was made available on several Japanese streaming services on November 15. The second season of the short TV anime is currently airing on TV Tokyo and on the official YouTube channel.
