The changing of the fall leaves and disappearing of pumpkin spice always heralds a start of the snow and sleigh bells on high. Not to be forgotten though? Anime, and lots of it. This winter isn't breaking with new years tradition, coming in hot (cold?) with over 50 new shows in some shape or form to look on in anticipation. Leading the pack comes the overwhelmingly awaited second season of elven fantasy Sousou no Frieren, followed up quickly by shounen sensation Jujutsu Kaisen's third kick at the anime can and dramatic entertainment extravaganza Oshi no Ko round three. Not to be forgotten either is the proper airing of Type Moon's Fate/strange Fake, finale season for Golden Kamuy, and the firefighting chaos of Enen no Shouboutai. Need a little more surprise in your Christmas stocking? Say hello to hard hitting drama Ikoku Nikki, the popcorn-first fantasy action Yuusha-kei ni Shosu, and the exceptionally cutesy romcom antics of Seihantai na Kimi to Boku. And if that wasn't enough under the tree lies some fun with sci-fi thriller Darwin Jihen, the possessive fantasy suspense of Eris no Seihai, and the knuckledusting superhero carnage that is Boku no Hero Academia Illegals. The days may be short and the weather exceptionally cold, but anime is always around to keep us warm and content. This is Random Curiosity's Winter 2026 Preview!

Every summer comes with the acknowledgement of hot afternoons and sunshine galore eventually giving way to fall's shorter days and changing leaves. And also anime. Lots of anime. This fall is no exception to the rule, with over 50 shows of one variety or another fleshing out the autumn ranks, from the hotly anticipated returns of action extraordinaire One-Punch Man and chaotic family adventure in Spy x Family to shounen masterpiece Boku no Hero Academia's final season and Fumetsu no Anata e's third round. Needing some potential upstarts in place of pumpkin spice? Try out Sunrise's kick at the isekai can in Sutetsuyo, the introspective teenage angst clinical Chitose-kun wa Ramune Bin no Naka, or Gintama's side-story spunk with 3-nen Z-gumi Ginpachi-sensei. Even sports and romance fans aren't left hanging courtesy of the urban dancing Wandance, charming school romcom Taiyou yori mo Mabushii Hoshi, and the diabetic office sugar of Bukiyou na Senpai. And hey, if that's nowhere near enough, make sure to see the horror shenanigans of GNOSIA, quirky off-the-wall holiday chaos of Sanda, and the very ravenous psychological suspense of Watashi wo Tabetai, Hitodenashi. Fall might mean winter is nary a season away, but anime is here to keep the oncoming snow at bay. This is Random Curiosity's Fall 2025 Preview!

With the changing of the leaves out and snow and chill in you'd think we'd be gearing up for a lazy season - but anime has other intentions. New year intentions. As 2024 gives way to 2025 we've got a strong suite of shows to look forward to, whether it be the hotly awaited Solo Leveling sequel, the return of everyone's favourite Chinese apothecary in Kusuriya no Hitorigoto, the next Type Moon entry Fate/strange Fake, or the brand new upstarts in low-key hit-man adventure Sakamoto Days and sport-flavoured romcom Ao no Hako.
