In a dark new anime, people are thrown away like trash – and it could become the hit of the summer

In the world of Gachiakuta, a new anime on Crunchyroll, people are classified into two categories: The protagonist Rudo ends up in the one that is thrown away like “garbage.” The reactions to the new trailer suggest that there is a real summer hit waiting for us.

What kind of anime is it? Gachiakuta is a new anime series based on a manga by Kei Urana. The main character is a boy named Rudo, who has been ostracized by society and is therefore very, very angry.

The anime starts on July 6, 2025, on Crunchyroll. This is revealed by a new trailer that the streaming service uploaded to YouTube. You can watch the trailer here:

Here comes the garbage man

What is Gachiakuta about? In Germany, the manga series has the subtitle “Thrown Away Like Trash”, which captures the essence of the story very well.

  • The world of Gachiakuta is a two-class society: The rich live in abundance while the outcasts live in poverty in the filthy slums.
  • The boy Rudo is the son of a notorious criminal and is treated as an outcast by the wealthy society as his descendant.
  • One day he is sentenced for a murder he did not commit. Consequently, he is thrown down the abyss along with the rest of the garbage.

At the bottom of the abyss, other outcasts are waiting. However, from the garbage that the rich have carelessly thrown into the abyss, dangerous garbage monsters have also emerged. The answer of the people to this danger is the so-called “Cleaners” – garbage men. Their task is to fight the garbage monsters.

Among the Cleaners are also people with special abilities: Those who can bring objects to life and unleash their powers. They are called “Givers,” and Rudo is one of them.

Fans are ecstatic about the trailer

The anime has definite hit potential: It is produced by Studio Bones, which has also produced anime series like Fullmetal Alchemist and My Hero Academia. Looking at the fans’ reactions, we can expect a very good adaptation of the manga.

The comments under the trailer on YouTube are overwhelmingly positive:

  • “the opening sounds 100x better than i could have imagined” (corndoguzi6504)
  • “THIS ADAPTATION LOOKS EXACTLY AS I IMAGINED IT, THANKS STUDIO BONES” (RocciaMammaMiaFan)
  • “THE OPENING IS SOOO FIREEE BRUHHHHH” (souloet)
  • “Cleaners, are you all ready for JULY SIXTH?! IM SO HYPED” (GaussTheWarframe)

Succatag67789 is sure: “If lord of mysteries doesn’t take over the summer, then this definitely will” Let’s just hope that the anime series lives up to the heightened expectations.

Recently, several animes were awarded at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards 2025, including “Anime of the Year.” However, the winner in this category is dividing the community.
