Top Spring 2025 Anime Recommendations
From the lineup, 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 must-watches for Spring 2025 on Crunchyroll, but there are other gems worth adding to your watchlist.
***Devil May Cry*** is Netflix's latest venture into anime adaptations of video games, promising an edgy and thrilling experience. With a trailer featuring Limp Bizkit and a new Evanescence track, it's clear the creators understand their audience. Directed by Adi Shankar, known for *Castlevania* and *Guardians of Justice*, and animated by Studio Mir, famous for *Avatar: The Last Airbender*, this series is a must-watch even if you're new to the *Devil May Cry* universe. Fans of *Trigun* will particularly appreciate the adventures of Dante.
***Moonrise***, set to debut on Netflix, explores a unique concept where the moon seeks independence. With animation by WIT Studio, character designs by Hiromu Arakawa of *Fullmetal Alchemist* fame, and direction by Masashi Koizuka of *Attack On Titan*, this original net animation is poised to be a standout. Despite the limited details available, the involvement of such renowned talent suggests a promising watch.
Lastly, ***YAIBA: Samurai Legends*** on Netflix revives the beloved manga from the late 1980s by Gosho Aoyama, the creator of *Case Closed*. This samurai comedy follows Yaiba Kurogane in his battle against a formidable foe with a magical katana and a demon army. With Aoyama's direct involvement and animation by WIT Studio, it promises a blend of humor and action reminiscent of *Detective Conan* and early *Dragon Ball*, making it a must-watch for fans of Japanese historical and martial arts themes.
