New On Netflix In July: Complete List, Topped By Original Japanese Anime Series

New On Netflix Knights of Sidonia


New on Netflix in July, the popular streaming service delivers its first original anime series, Knights of Sidonia — plus dozens of older Hollywood movies and TV shows. But it’s Sidonia that has fans of Japanese animation, as well as science fiction enthusiasts excited.


The 12-episode series based on the Japanese manga — that is, comic book series — also titled Knights of Sidonia, is a sprawling space opera that the science fiction and fandom blog Gizmodo says “looks Robotech-level awesome.”


Here’s how Netflix describes the new series:



“The first Netflix original anime series, Knights of Sidonia, based on the popular manga series of the same name, follows Nagate, a low-born youth in a society of genetically engineered refugees who escaped the destruction of Earth one thousand years earlier and now occupy the massive ship Sidonia. When Nagate’s talent as a pilot is revealed he becomes one of Sidonia’s elite defenders against the Guana, shapeshifting aliens bent on eliminating humans from existence.”



Now, the series has already aired in Japan, In fact, the 12th and final episode was broadcast on Friday. So Netflix is using the term “original” a bit loosely here. But Netflix is indeed the first and only broadcaster or net-caster to license the show.


Knights of Sidonia goes live on the Netflix streaming service July 4. Check out the trailer below. But if Japanese sci-fi isn’t your cup of tea, Netflix has a long list of movies lined up for July release.


Some of the highlights include The Master, which features one of the final great performances by the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, who plays the leader of a Scientology-like religious cult. Hoffman was nominated for an Oscar in this 2012 role, as were his co-stars Joaquin Phoenix and Amy Adams.


Fans of domestic sci-fi may want to check out Star Trek: The Motion Picture , the original, 1979 epic that first brought Captain Kirk, Mister Spock, and the whole Enterprise crew to the big screen — with a big budget. In fact, at $46 million, the first Star Trek film was at the time, the most expensive movie ever made by Hollywood. The price tag would be about $150 million in 2014 dollars, but even converting for inflation, the movie would be far from the most expensive ever if it were released today.
