The series ran until 1996, with a 49-episode anime adaption airing from 1994 to 1995. An OVA of the series titled Rayearth was produced in 1997, which featured an alternate retelling of the original classic.

But before we get to Terminator, Lords of the Rings, or Rick and Morty (all of which are coming out this year, by the way), we arguably have the headliner: WIT Studio’s Suicide Squad Isekai. The series has been highly anticipated ever since it was announced because Harley Quinn and The Joker are already basically anime characters. It’s a natural fit.

Because sure, the very gory series where beloved main characters are known to die, and where our hero eats mummified fingers as a key part of his arc which may or may not turn him into a homicidal monster—sure, that series is obviously appropriate material for a Happy Meal. For children around the age of five.

There have been reports of a website domain registration for Tokyo Ghoul, and this has been the source of multiple speculations for a re-adaptation of Sui Ishida’s ghoulish manga. Eventually, people assumed that Tokyo Ghoul‘s remake was on the way and would be animated by MAPPA.

Sakura moved to Furin High School to be the top dog. He didn’t move schools to make a clean break or gain new friendships. The journey Sakura wanted to tread was a lonely one. But by the end of the first season, Sakura was appreciated by his fellow first-year students, admired by his peers, and even elected as a class representative.

The first half of the anime came out in January 2023. Only eight episodes were released, and A-1 Pictures, the production company responsible for the anime, had to halt productions because of COVID-19 concerns. But NieR:Automata Ver 1.1a is finally coming back in July 2024. The whole anime was expected to have 24 episodes before the delays occurred.

But if you really need an English dub for Hajime no Ippo season two, you’ll have to throw your hopes out of the window. The second season of Hajime no Ippo: New Challenger has never been dubbed in English. It hasn’t even been added to Crunchyroll yet. Many recent viewers have been skipping the second season because of its inaccessibility and the lack of an English dub.

Fans were generally intrigued after knowing more about Kamiki. He’s the president of Kamiki Productions., he’s a talented director, and he’s a charmer to top things off. But beneath all these good things is an uncomfortable truth: Kamiki is a serial killer who preys on young actresses. He’s also the man who was directly responsible for Ai’s untimely death.

Gojo was revived, but not in the way fans expected. After just a couple of chapters, we might lose Gojo along with Yuta. Gege Akutami, the manga’s author, took a health-related break after releasing Chapter 262. We were also in need of much-needed respite after the events of the previous chapter, but we’re all ready to move on to Chapter 263 of the manga.

Avid manga readers know that the second season will introduce important characters. Many of the answers to the questions you’ll be asking later will tie back to this season’s cast. This isn’t just an anime about a guy who reincarnates as his favorite idol’s son, although that was enough to get us hooked on the story.

It’s unusual for a high school anime to be this lawless. With the lack of classes going on at Furin High School, it’s better to see it as a school that stages regular fight clubs. Nevertheless, we can’t wait for a sequel to Wind Breaker. Since it became a hit in the Summer 2024 anime line-up, Wind Breaker has been confirmed for a second season.

Suicide Squad Isekai takes the well-known DC franchise, which has been working very hard to reignite DC’s so-so reputation over the last decade, and places them in a new land filled with fantastical creatures, dangerous beasts, and magic. Warner Bros. Japan has teamed up with Wit Studio (Attack on Titan, Vinland Saga) to drag the anti-heroes of the DC world into a fantastical realm, merging the superhero genre with anime’s isekai genre.

Kaiju No. 8 season 1 finished strong with an epic battle between one of the strongest members of the Defence Force and a berserker Kaiju No. 8. Kafka finally managed to regain control of his kaiju body before landing a fatal blow on the Director. He redirected the attack at himself, damaging his kaiju core and passing out. Quick to jump in was a masked figure sporting a rather ginormous and sharp blade that was aimed right at the unconscious Kafka. The figure was halted by Shinomiya who ordered him to drop his weapon.

A classic isekai anime, Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy follows the character of Makoto Misumi, an average high school student who is dragged from his normal life to a new and fantastical world. He was meant to be the hero, the savior, but all it took was one judgemental look from the Goddess who summoned him for her to decide he wasn’t exactly hero material. Now, cast out from both his own world and living on the fringes of this new one, Makoto must carve out a new life for himself and prove his worth to those who overlooked him.

I felt like I should be excited. Instead, I felt conflicted. Seeing Demon Slayer in the theaters is a goddamn treat. I’m also the kind of Demon Slayer viewer who waits until there are one or two episodes left and binges the season. It’s a phenomenal binge show, and what’s a film besides binging a couple of episodes in public and with a big screen?

To put things into context, Frieren is an elf. She’s an elven mage who has powers beyond human comprehension. 500 years could pass her in the blink of an eye, and she would barely notice a thing. The rate at which she processes emotions wouldn’t be the same as what a human does. She has had the luxury of thinking about her feelings for years, but humans aren’t the same.
