The wait is almost over. With just one month until the premiere of Alice in Borderland Season 3, Netflix decided to unveil a new trailer for the new episodes of the Japanese series. Once again, the story will center around a group of people trying to survive deadly games — however, differently from Squid Game, there's no cash prize waiting for them at the finish line. Instead, they get to discover what the heck is going on and who put them in such a terrible place. The series returns on September 25.

The showcase, running Sep 27, 2025, to Jan 25, 2026 will display over 700 original drawings by iconic Japanese artists, including One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure author Hirohiko Araki, and Inuyasha artist Rumiko Takahashi.

Organized in collaboration with major publishers Kadokawa, Kodansha, Shueisha, and others, the exhibition aims to position manga as a globally influential art form.
