Top Spring 2025 Anime Recommendations
I've spotlighted The Apothecary Diaries, Once Upon A Witch’s Death, The Beginning After The End, To Be Hero X, and WITCH WATCH in my roundup of Spring 2025 anime dubs coming to Crunchyroll, but there are some great additional picks that should be on your watch list from the list above too.
Devil May Cry is the latest animated video game adaptation from Netflix, and with its Limp Bizkit-soundtracked trailer and a newly composed Evanescence track, it's clear the makers understand the tone they need to hit for their target audience. Netflix has had mixed results with anime or anime-style game IPs, but with creator Adi Shankar behind Castlevania, Guardians of Justice, and Captain Laserhawk, and Studio Mir, the team behind Avatar: The Last Airbender and Korra, fans of anime like Trigun should find Dante's mercenary escapades entertaining.
In Moonrise, the moon fights for independence, a concept that's brought to life with talent from WIT Studio (Attack On Titan, Vinland Saga), original character designs by Hiromu Arakawa (Fullmetal Alchemist), and direction by Masashi Koizuka (Attack On Titan Seasons 2 & 3). Despite the limited information available, the involvement of such renowned creators suggests something special is in store.
Lastly, YAIBA: Samurai Legends may not be well-known to all, but this samurai comedy series by Gosho Aoyama, the creator of Case Closed, follows Yaiba Kurogane as he battles his arch-nemesis. With WIT Studio at the helm and Aoyama's hands-on involvement in production, fans of Detective Conan and the humor of early Dragon Ball will find this a must-watch.
