It's Anime Sets Weekly Kill Blue Sub and Dub Schedule on Samsung TV Plus

The free streaming channel It's Anime has locked in a weekly release schedule for the Kill Blue adaptation, giving North American viewers a regular Saturday night slot for new subtitled episodes and a one-week turnaround on the English dub. Subtitled episodes will premiere Saturdays at 10:00 PM EST on Samsung TV Plus and other FAST platforms, arriving shortly after the Japanese broadcast. The English dub of episodes 1 and 2 launched day-and-date with the subtitled version. Starting with episode 3, each new dubbed episode will follow within one week of its subtitled counterpart. The series adapts Tadatoshi Fujimaki's Weekly Shonen Jump manga about a 39-year-old hitman, Juzo Ogami, who is transformed into a 13-year-old boy and forced to infiltrate a middle school. Ray Chase voices the adult Ogami and Caitlyn Elizabeth voices the child version, with Kayli Mills, Khoi Dao, and Dawn M. Bennett in supporting roles. It's Anime, operated by Tokyo-based REMOW, positions Kill Blue as the most widely available anime of 2026, distributing it free and ad-supported across Samsung TV Plus and VIZIO WatchFree+.

The English dub of episodes 1 and 2 released day-and-date with the subtitled premiere, a scheduling choice the press release from REMOW calls "simultaneous with the original broadcast." Ray Chase voices the adult Juzo Ogami and Caitlyn Elizabeth voices the child version. Kayli Mills, Khoi Dao, and Dawn M. Bennett are the named supporting cast, with the release noting "many more" additional voice actors.

Tadatoshi Fujimaki is best known for the basketball series Kuroko's Basketball, which ran in Weekly Shonen Jump before Kill Blue. The adaptation carries a production committee credit: "©Tadatoshi Fujimaki/SHUEISHA, Kill Blue Production Committee." No animation studio, director, or composer is named in the cluster sources.

It's Anime is a 24/7 FAST channel operated by the Tokyo-based company REMOW. The channel is available on Samsung TV Plus at channel 3202 and on VIZIO WatchFree+. Samsung lists compatibility across its 2025 TV lineup, including Neo QLED 8K, Neo QLED 4K, OLED, The Frame, and The Frame Pro models, as well as Galaxy devices, Smart Monitors, and Family Hub screens. The press release states the channel's mission is "to expand the global anime audience, reduce piracy, and increase support for Japanese creators by making culturally authentic anime more widely and easily accessible."

The synopsis distributed with the schedule update adds detail to the premise: Ogami is stung by "a mysterious wasp" after wiping out a powerful organization, and his boss issues the infiltration order while he is still processing the transformation. The summary frames the story as a question: "Can Juzo ever return to his original form? Or will the assassins closing in on him end his second life before it even begins?"
