Gifted Anime Drops Shock 2027 Premiere Date, Fans Face Long Wait
Hold onto your detective hats, shoujo fans – Gifted is getting a TV anime, but you’ll be waiting a while. Kodansha just dropped the bombshell that Shin Kibayashi and Rima Amamiya’s detective series won't hit screens until 2027. That’s a three-year lead time for an initial announcement, an unusually long wait that suggests big things are brewing.
Gifted has already built a following since its 2021 debut in Nakayoshi magazine, known for its gripping mysteries and shoujo flair. It even boasts a live-action TV drama, proving its appeal beyond the page. This anime announcement, despite the distant premiere, is a significant moment for a series already demonstrating cross-media success. What could warrant such a lengthy production window? We're certainly curious.
“The detective shoujo manga Gifted is getting a TV anime, but fans won't see it until 2027.”
Catzye Take
A 2027 premiere is highly unusual for an initial anime announcement, often signaling a high-profile production or a complex animation schedule. Fans should keep an eye on Gifted's continued manga serialization and any further details, as this could be a major project. What's interesting here is the confidence a studio must have to announce something so far out.
