Disney Twisted-Wonderland: The Animation is a 2025 Japanese fantasy anime series produced by Aniplex in collaboration with Walt Disney Japan. Based on the hit mobile game Disney Twisted-Wonderland, it is directed by Noriaki Akitaya and written by Yana Toboso, best known for Black Butler.
The show stars the voices of Ryohei Kimura, Natsuki Hanae, and Shunsuke Takeuchi, following a modern high school student named Yuken Enma, who is mysteriously transported to Night Raven College, a prestigious school for magic users. With no magic of his own, Yuken must survive among students inspired by classic Disney villains while seeking a way home.
Season 1, titled Episode of Heartslabyul, focuses on the Queen of Hearts–inspired dorm and its perfectionist leader, Riddle Rosehearts, exploring power, friendship, and identity. The anime will stream globally on Disney+ in late 2025.
