Dark Gathering release schedule: When is episode 2 out?
The next big monster hunter series is finally here.
Dark Gathering has been around since 2019 but only now is it being translated for Western audiences. At the centre of the "new" anime is Keitaro Gentoga, a natural-born medium with a flair for attracting ghosts with his cursed right hand.
He becomes the unwitting tutor to Yayoi Hozuki, a young girl seeking to capture ghosts while searching for her mother after a traumatic incident that left her with two pupils in each eye.
Dark Gathering follows the pair as they face off against supernatural horrors in what is expected to be the next big thriller series in the world of Shonen.
With the series having 12 volumes and more on the way, the anime will cover quite a bit of the story with season 1.
