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*** in my roundup of Spring 2025 anime dubs coming to Crunchyroll, but there are some other great picks from the list above that you should consider adding to your watch list.

***Devil May Cry*** is Netflix's latest animated adaptation of a video game, and with its Limp Bizkit-soundtracked trailer and a newly composed Evanescence track, it's clear the creators understand the tone they need to strike for their audience. Netflix has had a mixed track record with anime and anime-style game IPs, ranging from hits like *Castlevania*, *Arcane*, and *Cyberpunk: Edgerunners* to misses like *Tekken: Bloodline* and *Dragon’s Dogma*. However, with creator Adi Shankar, who has worked on *Castlevania*, *Guardians of Justice*, and *Captain Laserhawk*, and Studio Mir, known for *Avatar: The Last Airbender* and *Korra*, behind the project, fans of anime like *Trigun* should find the mercenary adventures of Dante, the ultimate '00s edgelord, highly entertaining.

***Moonrise*** presents a unique concept where the moon fights for independence, a premise that the creators of 2021's *Moonfall* might wish they had thought of for a sequel. This original net animation (ONA) boasts impressive talent, including animation by WIT Studio (*Attack On Titan, Vinland Saga*), original character designs by manga icon Hiromu Arakawa (*Fullmetal Alchemist*), and direction by Masashi Koizuka (*Attack On Titan* Seasons 2 & 3). Despite the limited information available about the story, the involvement of such a stellar team suggests we're in for something extraordinary.

Lastly, ***YAIBA: Samurai Legends*** might be unfamiliar to those outside Japan or younger audiences, but it has maintained a cult following since its manga debut in the late 1980s. Created by Gosho Aoyama, known for *Case Closed*, this samurai comedy follows Yaiba Kurogane as he battles an arch-nemesis with a magical katana and a demon army. With WIT Studio at the helm and Aoyama's direct involvement in production, this second anime adaptation promises to blend the style of *Detective Conan* with the humor of early *Dragon Ball* and numerous Japanese historical references. It's a must-watch for fans of these genres.
