Netflix Drops a Visually Stunning Trailer for Its Animated Romance ‘In Waves’

Much like the cast of the animated series, the premise is equally exciting. 

The new steampunk animated series Bass X Machina is about the first Black U.S. Marshal, Bass Reeves. The story will follow him as he works as a bounty hunter, fighting to protect the people he loves. And his opponents are more dangerous than they appear, including war machines and supernatural terrors.

The show is created by LeSean Thomas, who is known for Cannon Busters and produced by Studio Mir. The first glimpse of the trailer shows Reeves boarding a train while chasing his target. He swiftly completes his task, locating the person he is looking for. The first glimpse also shows Reeves' mechanical arm and how has he has been able to put it in use.

Much more about the show will be revealed when the series premieres.

Bass X Machina is set for premiere on November 3, 2026. The series will feature 6 episodes. And rather than weekly release, all the episode will be released simultaneously for viewers to bingewatch.
