Big Returns for August 2026

Crunchyroll has officially unveiled the schedule for two heavy hitters.

Following shortly after, on August 14, 2026, the acclaimed Chinese supernatural thriller 'Link Click' kicks off its highly anticipated third season. The series, which follows the time-traveling duo Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang, promises to deliver more intense emotional stakes and narrative twists as they continue their dangerous work of manipulating history through photographs.
