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 standout entries in the Spring 2025 anime dubs on Crunchyroll, but there are other gems worth adding to your watch list.
Devil May Cry, the latest video game adaptation on Netflix, promises a thrilling experience with its Limp Bizkit-soundtracked trailer and an original Evanescence track, setting the perfect tone for fans. Adi Shankar, known for Castlevania, and Studio Mir, renowned for Avatar: The Last Airbender and Korra, bring their expertise to this project. Even if you're new to the Devil May Cry universe, the adventures of the edgy Dante will resonate with fans of Trigun.
In Moonrise, the moon strives for independence, a concept ripe with potential. With animation from WIT Studio, character designs by Hiromu Arakawa, and direction by Masashi Koizuka, this original net animation (ONA) is poised to be a cinematic spectacle. Despite limited plot details, the involvement of such talent hints at a special viewing experience.
Lastly, YAIBA: Samurai Legends might be unfamiliar to some, but its creator, Gosho Aoyama of Case Closed fame, brings a beloved samurai comedy to life. This new adaptation by WIT Studio, with Aoyama's direct involvement, promises a blend of humor and action reminiscent of Detective Conan and early Dragon Ball, peppered with historical references.
