Now an anime adaptation on Amazon Prime Video! From the creator of the best selling manga series - Beastars, Paru Itagaki!
Santa Claus is now in the crosshairs of his enemies, as Sanda leaves a trail of destruction and confusion in his wake with intense battles.
In Sanda Volume 3, the mystery around Ono Ichie's disappearance deepens - and Sanda's dual identity grows ever more unstable. As shrouded forces tighten their grip, Sanda finds himself increasingly unable to control when he transforms into his Santa Claus form - threatening not only his mission, but the fragile hope he carries. With Shiori by his side, he must confront sinister societal forces in a 2080 Japan where Christmas is myth and children are under strict governmental control.
Secrets from Sanda's heritage begin to surface, revealing ancient obligations that could reshape everything he thought he knew. Friendships are tested, loyalties strained, and the very essence of the lost "magic of Christmas" flickers on the edge of extinction. As conspiracy and danger swirl, the pair's emotional bond is tested like never before.
With parabolic tension building and supernatural stakes higher than ever, Volume 3 intensifies the series' blend of mystery, heart, and unreal wonder. And for fans new and returning: an animated adaptation by Studio Science Saru is set to premiere this October 2025, bringing this unique world to vivid life.
