Edens Zero is a Japanese anime television series based on the manga series of the same name, written and illustrated by Hiro Mashima. The anime television adaptation by J.C.Staff was first announced by Mashima on Twitter on June 12, 2020.[1] Shinji Ishihira serves as chief director, with Mitsutaka Hirota overseeing scripts, Yurika Sako designing the characters, and Yoshihisa Hirano composing the music.[2] The story follows Shiki Granbell, a boy with gravity powers who inherits the titular spaceship from his adoptive grandfather, the mechanical "Demon King" Ziggy, which he and his crew use to explore the universe in search of Mother, the goddess of the cosmos.

The first season aired on Nippon TV and other channels from April 11 to October 3, 2021,[3][4][a] and was directed by Yūshi Suzuki until his death on September 9, 2021.[2][5] The second season aired from April 2 to October 1, 2023,[6][b] with Toshinori Watanabe replacing Suzuki as director.[7]

Netflix acquired streaming rights for the first season, globally releasing the first twelve episodes outside Japan on August 26, 2021,[8] and the remaining thirteen episodes on November 24 the same year.[9] The second season was licensed internationally by Mediatoon Distribution, and streamed in various regions by Crunchyroll.[10][11]
