About Erased
Erased follows Satoru Fujinuma, whose involuntary time leaps send him back to his childhood to stop a serial kidnapping case and save his mother. The 12 episode anime by A-1 Pictures aired from January to March 2016, with a live-action film and a Netflix drama retelling the same story afterward.
Good to know
The anime, film, and drama each tell the full story, so the anime alone is enough and the rest are optional alternates. The Netflix drama is the only screen version that keeps the manga's original ending.
