Top Spring 2025 Anime Recommendations
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 part of my roundup of Spring 2025 anime dubs coming to Crunchyroll. However, there are several other gems from the list above that deserve your attention.
Devil May Cry is the latest animated adaptation from Netflix, blending the worlds of anime and video games. With a trailer featuring Limp Bizkit and a new Evanescence track, it's clear the creators understand the tone they're aiming for. Netflix's track record with anime-style game IPs has been mixed, but with Adi Shankar's experience from Castlevania and Studio Mir's impressive portfolio, including Avatar: The Last Airbender, this series promises to deliver action-packed entertainment. Even if you're new to the Devil May Cry universe, fans of series like Trigun will appreciate Dante's edgy mercenary adventures.
Moonrise offers a unique concept where the moon fights for independence, a theme that might resonate with fans of action and sci-fi. With WIT Studio's animation, character designs by Hiromu Arakawa, and direction by Masashi Koizuka, this ONA is poised to be a visual and narrative treat. Despite limited plot details, the anticipation is high for a special experience.
Lastly, YAIBA: Samurai Legends revives a beloved series from the late 1980s, created by Gosho Aoyama of Case Closed fame. Following Yaiba Kurogane's comedic and action-packed journey against a demon army, this series is brought to life again by WIT Studio. If you enjoy the style of Detective Conan mixed with the humor of early Dragon Ball and historical references, this is a must-watch.
These recommendations showcase the diverse and rich lineup of anime that Spring 2025 has in store for fans on Crunchyroll and Netflix.
