The animation studio Kyoto Animation has released fresh scene images for the upcoming TV series "Twentieth Century Electric Catalog – Eureka Evrica" (Japanese original title: "Nijusseiki Denki Mokuroku – Eureka Evrica"). The footage provides further insight into the detailed, steam-powered world of early 20th-century Kyoto.
The story revolves around the boy Kihachi Sakamoto (voiced by Yūma Uchida), who is in a deep crisis after losing his brother, and the girl Inako Momokawa (Sora Amamiya), who is torn between admiration for her deceased mother and her own feelings of guilt. Together, they embark on an adventure surrounding the mysterious "Twentieth Century Electric Catalog."
The anime will premiere on July 5, 2026, on Japanese channels ABC TV, TOKYO MX, TV Aichi, and BS11. Worldwide, the series will be streamed exclusively on Netflix. Ahead of its release, the studio has already generated buzz with a third key visual and a new promotional video. The trailer is accompanied by the opener "Eureka Evrica" by Luna Goami, while the ending theme is "Soarin'" by Ginger Root.
Additional voice roles have also been announced: Hiroshi Ienaka voices Inako's father Jin'emon, Mayumi Asano plays her mother Naoko, Daichi Endo takes on Bunshichi Yagura, and Ayahi Takagaki voices Tome and Inari. Furthermore, the work has been officially selected for the TV series competition at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival 2026.
For further promotion, advance screenings have already taken place in the UK, Thailand, Japan, and North America. In Japan, a special screening will be held on August 22, 2026, at the Kyoto Culture Museum, featuring Episode 7 as well as a preview of Episodes 8 and 9.
