Non-negotiable. The single most celebrated anime of 2023 and one of the best fantasy anime ever made. An elven mage who outlived her adventuring companions spends her immortal years retracing their journey, slowly realizing she never truly knew the people she called friends. Quiet, deeply humanistic, and absolutely gorgeous. Every best-of list that doesn’t include Frieren is incomplete.
NEW 2. Dandadan (2024)
Science SARU created 2024’s most energetic and visually creative anime. Okarun and Momo, two teenagers with opposing supernatural beliefs, collide with yokai, aliens, and each other in a series that somehow balances absurdist comedy, genuine horror, touching romance, and jaw-dropping action in the same episode. Nothing else airing looks or feels like Dandadan.
NEW 3. Solo Leveling (2024)
The manhwa adaptation that anime fans had been waiting years for finally delivered. Sung Jinwoo rises from the weakest hunter alive to an unstoppable force, and A-1 Pictures backs every step of that climb with combat animation that sets a new standard for the genre.

NEW 4. Gachiakuta (2025)
Bones Film’s standout 2025 production.

Rudo is the best new shonen protagonist of 2025.
NEW 5. Lord of Mysteries (2025)
The most ambitious animated production of 2025 by a Chinese studio, and arguably the year’s best isekai. Victorian setting, tarot-based powers, Lovecraftian horror, and a protagonist faking his way through a gathering of godlike beings. Dense, atmospheric, and unlike anything else on Crunchyroll. Watch it.
NEW 6. Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 (Summer 2026)
Studio Bind’s premium isekai returns for its third season this summer. The gold standard for isekai production continues to set the bar higher with every installment. If you’re not watching Mushoku Tensei in 2026, you’re missing the most carefully crafted long-form isekai story currently running.
NEW 7. BLACK TORCH (Summer 2026)
Summer 2026’s most anticipated new action anime. A shinobi who can speak to animals merges with a powerful mononoke cat named Rago and gets pulled into Japan’s hidden supernatural underworld. Strong source material, strong studio backing, and Summer 2026’s best shot at a new franchise-starter.
