ENHYPEN is making anime history with their webtoon Dark Moon The Blood Altar, finally transforming into a Japanese animation. On December 28, 2025, Aniplex, which sits under Sony Music Japan, hosted the first public screening at Toho Cinemas in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Fans watched episode one and then lost their minds when all seven members walked on stage, joined by six Japanese voice actors for a celebratory greeting session.
The anime marks a milestone in HYBE’s Story IP Business. Based on the Naver Webtoon, which already has more than 200 million cumulative views, it has proved global popularity. In addition, the story has turned into a full experience thanks to a Dark Moon festival at Lotte World Adventure and a fashion line with SPAO. The production is in the hands of Aniplex and animation TROYCA, ensuring big names working behind the scenes.
