Dandelion is a unique supernatural comedy-drama anime streaming exclusively on Netflix in 2026. It’s based on the one-shot manga by Hideaki Sorachi, the creator of Gintama, and expands into a seven-episode series with new stories and character depth.
The anime follows two rather unusual angels — Tetsuo Tanba and Misaki Kurogane — who work for the Japan Angel Federation’s Send-Off Department. Their job is to locate earthbound spirits who can’t move on to the afterlife because of lingering regrets. Instead of rushing souls through, the Dandelion team listens, understands, and helps them resolve unfinished business so they can find peace.
Filled with imaginative supernatural elements, heartfelt moments, and offbeat humor (a Sorachi trademark), Dandelion balances comedy with emotional storytelling as the angels tackle bizarre cases and help souls confront their pasts. It’s perfect for fans of slice-of-life fantasies with supernatural flair and smart character humor.
