Rick and Morty: The Anime Shares New Sneak Peek Clip

Rick and Morty will be making its anime debut some time later this year, and Adult Swim has given fans a new look at what this will look like with a new sneak peek clip for Rick and Morty: The Anime. Rick and Morty Season 8 is currently in the works for a release next year, but it’s not like Adult Swim will be going without a new entry from the most popular franchise airing today. Rick and Morty will be fleshing out more of its anime shorts with a full series, and now we have gotten a fresh look at this new take. 

Rick and Morty: The Anime is gearing up to make its premiere some time later this year, and will be introducing fans to another Smith family within the wider multiverse for the animated series. This is extending more of the adventures seen in previous anime shorts with Adult Swim, and the newest sneek peek clip released shares a new look at this new anime Rick as he’s currently being chased after for some kind of new experiment. You can check out the newest clip for Rick and Morty: The Anime below.
