Top Spring 2025 Anime Recommendations
Among the exciting lineup, I've highlighted The Apothecary Diaries, Once Upon A Witch’s Death, The Beginning After The End, To Be Hero X, and WITCH WATCH as must-watches on Crunchyroll. Here are some additional standout picks that deserve a spot on your watchlist:
Devil May Cry is Netflix's latest venture into animated video game adaptations. With a soundtrack featuring Limp Bizkit and Evanescence, it aims to capture the essence of the game's edgy style. Produced by Adi Shankar, who brought us Castlevania and Guardians of Justice, and animated by Studio Mir, known for Avatar: The Last Airbender and Korra, this series promises a thrilling ride for fans of action-packed anime like Trigun.
Moonrise, an Original Net Animation (ONA), explores the moon's quest for independence. With blockbuster talent behind it, including WIT Studio (Attack On Titan, Vinland Saga), character designs by Hiromu Arakawa (Fullmetal Alchemist), and direction by Masashi Koizuka (Attack On Titan Seasons 2 & 3), this series is shrouded in mystery and anticipation.
YAIBA: Samurai Legends brings back the beloved samurai comedy manga by Gosho Aoyama (Case Closed). This second anime adaptation, also produced by WIT Studio, follows Yaiba Kurogane's adventures against his magical katana-wielding arch-nemesis. With Aoyama directly involved in production, this series blends the charm of Detective Conan with the humor of early Dragon Ball, making it a delightful watch.
These recommendations offer a taste of the diverse and exciting anime slate coming to Crunchyroll and Netflix this Spring 2025, ensuring there's something for every anime fan to enjoy.
