At the 2023 San Diego Comic Con, a new trailer for the Uzumaki anime featuring leads Kirie Goshima and Shuichi Saito appeared. It showed off the distinctive black and white design and animation direction for the upcoming show. It also offered a chance to hear their Japanese voice actors.
Here's the trailer showing Uzumaki's Kirie and Shuichi walking through the streets of Kurozu-cho. He suggests the two of them leave town, citing the recent widespread appearances of spirals and discussing what's happening to his father. Kirie doesn’t seem to take it all seriously. It ends with the town’s siren going off and Shuichi expressing his discomfort with it all.
