Netflix is planning to corner the market with more than 40 original Japanese anime going to premiere this year. The planned projects of the streaming platform are twice the number of what streamers released this year.
The upcoming Japanese original anime will follow a mighty group named the Gods’ Council, which later determines that humanity is no longer worth preserving and they should destroy them to start a new beginning.

He says that if thirteen strong warriors from human history can defeat thirteen mighty God then only humanity can be saved. This show will witness many nail-biting encounters between the warrior and the Gods from different cultures.
