All the anime to stream on Netflix in December 2024

Since the beginning of 2024, Netflix has released anime titles that quickly became fan favorites. What better way for Netflix to continue its amazing streak than by closing out the year with nothing but bangers?

The end of the year is finally here, which means Netflix is gearing up to release its last batch of stellar anime titles that anime fans have been waiting to see all year.

From releases like Beastars to returning series with new episodes like DAN DA DAN, there isn’t a single title in this lineup that should go without streaming. What’s more, with some of these releases continuing well into the new year, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by streaming both December 2024 releases and all the things Netflix has in store for you in January 2025. And you don’t want to get left behind do you?

Without further ado, here are all the anime titles coming to Netflix this month!

New Netflix anime streaming in December 2024

Beastars has been stealing the hearts of anime fans ever since its release in March 2020. Now, the anime is coming to its hard-earned end, but not before tying up a few loose ends.

Beastars: Final Season Part 1

Release Date: December 5

The story of the final season will continue from where the previous season left off with Legoshi having to follow a narrow and confusing path now that he’s left school. However, just because Legoshi left his past behind, doesn’t mean his past is ready to let go of him.

Read more of what you can expect from the story of the first leg of the final season (via Netflix Media Center):

"Following the confrontation with Riz, Legoshi decides to leave school and begins living alone in Beast Apartments. Meanwhile, Louis, who has declined the Young BEASTARS and graduated from the academy, decides to finally face his father, Ogma. Haru, who is enjoying her campus life, deals with an endless series of troubles. Around this time, current BEASTAR Yahya pursues Melon, a violent criminal who seeks pleasure in murdering beasts. The fates of Legoshi and Melon, which never should have crossed paths, are intertwined by a secret held closely by Legoshi's family."

Check out the official trailer below.

With a story as epic as this one, it’s only natural that this is the one and only new anime installment Netflix has in store for December 2024. But don’t worry! There’s much more where that came from!
