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 top picks for the spring 2025 anime season on Crunchyroll. Here are some additional recommendations from the list above that you shouldn't miss:
***Devil May Cry*** is Netflix's latest venture into video game adaptations, and with a trailer featuring Limp Bizkit and a new Evanescence track, it’s clear the creators understand the tone they're aiming for. Drawing inspiration from successful adaptations like *Castlevania*, *Arcane*, and *Cyberpunk: Edgerunners*, and avoiding pitfalls like *Tekken: Bloodline* and *Dragon’s Dogma*, this series promises to deliver. With Adi Shankar's experience and Studio Mir's animation prowess, even fans unfamiliar with the *Devil May Cry* universe will enjoy the adventures of the edgy protagonist Dante, akin to *Trigun*.
In ***Moonrise***, the moon fights for independence in a unique and intriguing setup. This original net animation (ONA) boasts talent from WIT Studio, character designs by Hiromu Arakawa, and direction by Masashi Koizuka. Although details about the plot are scarce, the caliber of the team involved suggests a promising watch.
Lastly, ***YAIBA: Samurai Legends*** brings back the beloved manga by Gosho Aoyama, known for *Case Closed*. This samurai comedy follows Yaiba Kurogane as he confronts a formidable foe with a magical katana and a demon army. With WIT Studio animating and Aoyama involved in production, fans of *Detective Conan* and early *Dragon Ball* will find much to enjoy in its blend of humor and action.
