Tom & Jerry Anime Is Finally Coming to Fans Worldwide

Tom & Jerry Anime

For anyone who grew up glued to the TV watching Tom and Jerry, there’s some exciting news that might just make your inner child grin: the anime version of the classic cartoon—Tom & Jerry Gokko—is finally making its way out of Japan and onto international screens.

Yep, after being exclusive to Japanese viewers for nearly three years, Warner Bros. just dropped the first international trailer. The anime will be streaming globally very soon, and fans around the world are already buzzing about it.

Wait… There’s a Tom & Jerry Anime?

Believe it or not, this isn’t brand-new news at least, not for folks in Japan. Tom & Jerry anime ‘Gokko’ first aired back in 2022 on Cartoon Network Japan. It’s a reimagined version of the iconic cat-and-mouse duo, produced by Warner Bros. Japan and animated by Fanworks (they’re the studio behind Aggretsuko) along with Studio Nanohoshi.

But here’s the kicker: this version of Tom and Jerry anime is a lot cuter, a bit calmer, and definitely has that distinct anime flair. Think softer expressions, rounder features, and an overall “kawaii” (adorable) style that’s way more kid-friendly.

So What’s Different About Tom & Jerry Anime ‘Gokko’?

Let’s be honest, We all remember the original Tom and Jerry for its chaotic energy and endless slapstick violence. The anime version tones all of that down. Instead of constant mayhem, Gokko leans into sweeter, more playful storytelling. It’s clearly geared toward a younger audience, though longtime fans will probably still get a kick out of it.

Interestingly, the characters don’t talk, just like the original show. But now, with English signage and background elements included, it should be easier for non-Japanese viewers (especially kids) to follow along without missing a beat.

When and Where Can You Watch It?

Here’s the big update: Warner Bros. announced that Tom & Jerry Gokko will soon be available on their official WB Kids YouTube channel. The trailer’s already live, and it’s giving fans a sneak peek at what’s to come. While there’s no exact release date just yet, the fact that we’re getting a global launch at all is a pretty big deal.

It’s kind of amazing to think that a cartoon born in the U.S. back in the 1940s is now being reinvented by Japanese animators in 2025. But maybe that’s the magic of Tom and Jerry—they’re timeless. No matter where you’re from or how old you are, watching a sneaky mouse outsmart a stubborn cat never really gets old.

This anime marks the first time Tom and Jerry has been adapted into a full-on Japanese production, and honestly, it’s kind of cool to see how much love and creativity went into making something so familiar feel brand new.
