Netflix India Releases Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress Anime on July 1

Netflix India is listing the Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress anime on its streaming service. The anime will stream on the service starting on July 1. 

Netflix India describes the story:

In the midst of the industrial revolution, a virus turns the infected into the undead, and the living must fight for what remains of the human race.

The television anime aired from April-July 2016. The series streamed on Amazon Prime Video with English subtitles as it aired in Japan.

The "steampunk survival action" story takes place on the island country Hinomoto, where humans hide themselves in fortresses called stations against the threat of zombie-like beings with steel hearts known as "Kabane." Only armored locomotives known as "Hayajiro" go between the stations.

The anime reunited director Tetsuro Araki and Wit Studio, the team responsible for Attack on Titan. Code Geass creator Ichiro Okouchi wrote the scripts. Haruhiko Mikimoto (Macross 7, Gunbuster) designed the original characters, and Hiroyuki Sawano (Attack on Titan, Aldnoah.Zero) composed the music.

The series has also received two compilation films that premiered in December 2016 and January 2017 in Japan. The two films covered the anime's first season with some new and enhanced scenes.
