First look at ‘Trese’ anime, confirmed for 2021


There are a lot of new (or old new, because they’re season 2 or a comeback of some long lost series) anime titles coming in 2021 under streaming service Netflix.

But perhaps the most interesting announcement for Filipinos at the ongoing Netflix Anime Festival 2020, dubbed the “Future of Anime, Together,” is the confirmation of the anime version of Trese, the black and white Pinoy komik by Budjette Tan and artist KaJO Baldisimo.

Here's a first look at the anime version of Trese, featuring the title character Alexandra Trese, a detective who specializes in dealing with cases of a more supernatural nature.
