Cancelled Manga Black Torch Completes 12 Episode Anime Run

Fans of underdog stories have a reason to celebrate. The anime adaptation of Black Torch has officially wrapped up its 12 episode run on Crunchyroll. Created by Tsuyoshi Takaki, the original manga ran from 2017 to 2018 but was cut short after just 19 chapters. Seeing a cancelled series return years later as a full television show is a rare treat in the anime industry.

This new adaptation successfully covers the complete story from the manga. The final episode aired in September, giving closure to a premise that many readers thought was lost forever. The anime brings fresh energy to the supernatural action series, allowing a wider audience to experience the story of Jiro Azuma and his talking cat companion.

For longtime fans who supported the manga during its brief original run, this anime feels like a massive victory. It proves that great stories can find new life even after years of obscurity. You can catch all twelve episodes right now on Crunchyroll if you want to experience the complete journey.
