In recent times, dedicated anime enthusiasts might have felt a bit starved for quality content, given that long-running series like “One Piece” are on break, and options like “Solo Leveling” are limited. But, April is shaping up to be an incredibly thrilling month for anime aficionados! This is because it promises not only the much-anticipated adaptations of popular manhwas, but also sequels to some of the most in-demand modern anime.
With more well-known web novels like “Lord of the Mysteries” and “Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint” getting their anime adaptations, it appears that next month will just be a taste of what 2025 has in store for anime enthusiasts. So, here’s a sneak peek at what anime fans can anticipate watching in April 2025.
‘The Beginning After the End’
Streaming on Crunchyroll on April 2
In an age where Solo Leveling anime is highly acclaimed as the best, fans haven’t found anything quite comparable – but The Beginning After the End, also known as TBATE, might fit the bill perfectly. Crafted by TurtleMe, this captivating story has been read by over 150 million people, making it undeniably one of the greatest isekai tales ever penned. Despite the fact that a renowned studio like A-1 Pictures or MAPPA hasn’t taken on its adaptation yet, if Studio A-Cat manages to bring it to life, viewers can expect an outstanding anime when it debuts on Crunchyroll on April 2, 2025.
In “The Beginning After the End,” which starts streaming on Crunchyroll on April 2nd, the narrative revolves around King Grey, who reincarnates as Arthur Leywin in a realm where magic and mythical beings are not mere legends. Born an infant but with the mind of a thirty-year-old, Arthur journeys through this new world, confronting challenges that seem insurmountable. As he delves deeper, he discovers that the enchanting land harbors secrets far beyond his initial comprehension.
‘Wind Breaker’ (Season 2)
Streaming on Crunchyroll on April 4
Wind Breaker has been hailed as one of the top manga-to-anime adaptations in 2024, with a second season being highly anticipated after its thrilling premiere. This anime is based on the manga series by Satoru Nii and takes us to Furin High School, a school known for frequent student fights, where a group of students called Bofurin aim to safeguard their town from outsiders.
As a first-year student, I, Haruka Sakura, leave my hometown behind to attend Furin High School, and it couldn’t feel more perfect for me as I shine in street fighting. Witness me rise through the ranks to become one of Bofurin’s most promising leaders when the second season of Wind Breaker debuts on Crunchyroll on April 4, 2025.
‘Fire Force’ (Season 3)
Streaming on Crunchyroll on April 5
David Production Studios truly outdid themselves in creating top-tier animation for Fire Force, a show that’s been one of the most enjoyable anime series in recent years. The first two seasons of Fire Force were massive hits, but it’s taken five years for the third season to arrive. In the second season, Company 2 and Company 8 teamed up on a mission to explore the Nether, only to encounter resistance from the White-Clad organization.
In the third season, starting from Obi’s Rescue Saga as depicted in the manga, Fire Force Company 8 embarks on a mission to free Obi from the White Clads who appear unyielding. With Shinra edging closer to solving the enigma surrounding The Evangelist and Adolla Link, the initial part of Season 3 might pave the way for a climactic finale. Mark your calendars, Fire Force fans: Season 3 will be streaming on Crunchyroll from April 5, 2025.
‘Lazarus’
Streaming on Adult Swim on April 6
As a devoted fan, I’ve been eagerly awaiting the premiere of “Lazarus,” an anime series that’s stirred excitement for years. MAPPA, known for their exceptional work, is handling the animation, and the action-packed scenes are being carefully crafted by none other than Chad Stahelski, director of the iconic “John Wick” films. Created and led by Shinichiro Watanabe, this original anime will span across 13 episodes and make its grand debut on Adult Swim on April 6, 2025. According to Adult Swim’s official synopsis, here’s a glimpse into the storyline:
In the year 2052, we find ourselves in an unparalleled epoch of tranquility and wealth worldwide. This remarkable state is due to mankind’s liberation from illness and suffering. Renowned neuroscientist Dr. Skinner has created a wonder drug, Hapuna, which offers a cure for all maladies without any discernible disadvantages.
Three years past, the globe has advanced. However, Dr. Skinner makes his reappearance, now bearing the ominous title of harbinger of disaster. He reveals that Hapuna possesses a brief lifespan. Those who consumed it are destined to perish around three more years from now. Death knocks on the doorstep of this sinful world – and it’s swiftly approaching.
In reaction to this imminent danger, a team of five agents from various parts of the globe are assembled to prevent Skinner’s scheme from dooming humanity. Known as “Lazarus,” their mission is to locate Skinner and create a vaccine in time before it’s too late.
