Amazon Prime Video Announces September 2025 Lineup: 'Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe - Confessional' Leads Exclusive Stream

Amazon Prime Video has announced its new content lineup for September 2025, with the exclusive streaming of "Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe - Confessional" drawing particular attention from fans. It will be available starting September 12 in Italy and over 160 countries and regions worldwide.

This film adaptation, a spin-off from Hirohiko Araki's popular manga "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure," follows manga artist Rohan Kishibe as he encounters strange occurrences related to a "confessional" in a church he visits for research in Venice, taking on a story of "happiness and curses." Many fans who missed its theatrical release have eagerly awaited its streaming debut, and this announcement has generated a significant buzz on social media. Screenwriter Yasuko Kobayashi's description of Rohan's unique characteristic—"he's neither a detective nor a police officer, but merely a manga artist"—further highlights the series' charm.

The Context

"Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe" (『岸辺露伴は動かない』), known for its intricate storytelling and unique aesthetic, is a live-action drama series popular in Japan. It is based on a spin-off manga by Hirohiko Araki, the acclaimed creator of the globally recognized "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure." Rohan Kishibe, the titular character, is a charismatic yet eccentric manga artist who possesses a supernatural ability called "Heaven's Door," allowing him to read and rewrite people's memories and experiences. This makes him a compelling protagonist who solves mysteries not as a typical hero or detective, but through his artistic curiosity and unique powers. The film's setting, a "confessional" (懺悔室), refers to a small booth in a church where individuals confess their sins to a priest, often anonymously, adding a layer of mystery and psychological depth to the narrative. Other notable Japanese titles mentioned include "Dramatic Movie Solitary Gourmet" (『劇映画 孤独のグルメ』), a popular series about a man quietly enjoying meals, and "Chainsaw Man: Compilation" (『チェンソーマン 総集篇』), an anime based on a highly acclaimed dark fantasy manga.

Beyond "Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe - Confessional," Prime Video in September boasts a packed lineup of other notable titles. In addition to Japanese films like "Dramatic Movie Solitary Gourmet" and "Baban Ba Ban Ban Vampire," the foreign film selection includes "Venom: The Last Dance" (the third installment in the series), "Ice Road: Revenge," and the Academy Award-winning film "ANORA," among other diverse genres. The anime lineup also features "Chainsaw Man: Compilation." Following the release of this new information, "Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe - Confessional" ranked 5th in Yahoo! trend words, demonstrating its high level of public interest. Viewers can look forward to enjoying a variety of captivating new releases on Prime Video this September.
