From the highly anticipated second seasons of “Hamidashi Creative” and “Tonbo!” to the return of beloved classics like “Rurouni Kenshin,” there’s plenty to look forward to.
As we approach autumn of 2024, there’s still a substantial amount of unseen anime series on the horizon.

Re: Zero Season 3
Streaming on Crunchyroll on Oct. 2
The Isekai genre is flawed, oversaturated, and, more importantly, primarily reliant on fanservice to draw in the mainstream audience. However, Re: Zero, released in 2016, offered audiences a fresh perspective on transmigration, with Subaru Natsuki as the main protagonist unlike any other. Thus far, each season has proven more successful than the previous one, and the third season aims to continue this trend.
In the third segment of Re: Zero, the storyline splits into two phases: the “Attack Arc” and the “Defensive Arc”. During these phases, Subaru and Emile encounter fresh obstacles while preparing for Emile’s royal selection in Priestella. Re: Zero Season 2 is scheduled to debut on Crunchyroll on October 2, 2024.
Blue Lock Season 2
Streaming on Crunchyroll on Oct. 5
In a unique style that characterizes anime portrayals of sports, titles like “Haikyuu,” “Hajime no Ippo,” and “Kuroko’s Basketball” showcase their respective sporting domains. Akin to these series, the anime “Blue Lock” delves into the thrilling realm of soccer, transforming it into an animated extravaganza populated by a cast of memorable characters drawn from real-life football icons such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Muller, and Mbappé.
After a triumphant first season, it was only a matter of time before we saw the return of Blue Lock with Season 2. With the tantalizing hint of the much-awaited clash between Blue Lock and U-20 Japan, fans have been eagerly waiting for this moment. Starting October 5, 2024, Blue Lock Season 2 will be streaming on Crunchyroll with a total of 14 episodes.

2023 proved to be a blessing for anime enthusiasts, as it brought numerous new adaptations of beloved manga and manhwa, along with the comeback of one of the “Big Three,” Bleach. The latest arc of Bleach, titled “Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Arc,” has been nothing short of captivating, featuring breathtaking animation from Pierrot Films and a compelling narrative enriched by an exceptional antagonist, Yhwach.
In the third segment, named “Bleach: The Thousand-Year Blood War – The Struggle, ” we find the Soul Society engaged in a fierce battle against Quincy King Yhwach. As Ichigo strives to amplify his strength, this quest is driven by his determination to protect his comrades.
