Disney’s Twisted Wonderland Brings Villains to Life on Disney+
Disney fans are in for a magical twist! The highly anticipated anime series Disney Twisted Wonderland: The Animation has finally arrived on Disney+, premiering on October 29, 2025. Produced by Aniplex, this unique adaptation transforms one of Japan’s most popular mobile games into a full-fledged animated fantasy that reimagines Disney’s most iconic villains in an entirely new light.
Inspired by the hit mobile game developed under the supervision of Disney Japan, Twisted Wonderland transports viewers into a mysterious and enchanting world that feels both familiar and fresh. The story follows a seemingly ordinary young man named Yuken Enma, who is suddenly pulled through a magic mirror and finds himself in a world of spells and secrets. He ends up at Night Raven College, an elite school of magic run by a masked headmaster. The catch? Yuken doesn’t possess any magical powers. So, while others cast spells and summon creatures, he’s left trying to survive through intelligence, courage, and sheer determination.

What makes this series especially fascinating is its setting — a universe divided into seven dormitories, each inspired by one of Disney’s legendary villains. The Queen of Hearts, Scar, Ursula, Jafar, the Evil Queen, Hades, and Maleficent all serve as symbolic figures behind these houses. Their influence shapes the rules, rivalries, and identities of the magical students who live there. It’s a world where the darkness of Disney’s villains isn’t something to be feared — it’s celebrated.
The voice cast, featuring well-known Japanese talents like Natsuki Hanae, Yamashita Seiichiro, and Chiaki Kobayashi, adds emotional depth to the characters. Their performances bring to life the intense friendships, rivalries, and moral dilemmas that define this fantastical story.
Visually, the series is stunning. The animation carries Aniplex’s signature style — rich colors, fluid motion, and a refined aesthetic that perfectly balances Disney’s magic with Japan’s modern storytelling flair. It’s both an homage to Disney’s timeless characters and a bold reinterpretation that gives them new meaning.
But beyond its fantasy appeal, Twisted Wonderland explores deeper themes of identity, belonging, and self-discovery. It’s not just about good versus evil — it’s about understanding the gray areas in between. For fans of anime, fantasy, or Disney classics, this series offers something refreshing: a darkly charming universe where villains take center stage.
With its mix of adventure, emotion, and mystery, Disney Twisted Wonderland: The Animation promises to be one of Disney+’s standout releases this year — a spellbinding blend of East and West, where the magic of storytelling knows no boundaries.
