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 must-watch series from the Spring 2025 lineup on Crunchyroll. However, there are several other gems worth adding to your watchlist.

***Devil May Cry*** is Netflix's latest venture into animated video game adaptations. With a trailer featuring Limp Bizkit and a new Evanescence track, it's clear the creators are aiming to capture the perfect tone for fans. While Netflix has had mixed success with anime-style game IPs, from hits like *Castlevania* and *Arcane* to misses like *Tekken: Bloodline*, the involvement of creator Adi Shankar and Studio Mir, known for *Avatar: The Last Airbender* and *Korra*, suggests *Devil May Cry* could be a thrilling addition to the lineup. Even if you're unfamiliar with the game series, fans of action-packed anime like *Trigun* will likely enjoy Dante's adventures.

In ***Moonrise***, the moon fights for independence, a concept that, despite its intriguing premise, has been kept under wraps. With animation from WIT Studio, character designs by Hiromu Arakawa, and direction by Masashi Koizuka, this ONA promises to be a visually stunning and narratively rich experience. While details about the story are scarce, the involvement of such talent suggests we're in for something special.

Lastly, ***YAIBA: Samurai Legends*** brings back the beloved samurai comedy series to Netflix. Created by Gosho Aoyama, known for *Case Closed*, this series follows Yaiba Kurogane in his quest against a magical katana-wielding arch-nemesis and a demon army. With WIT Studio animating and Aoyama's hands-on approach, this adaptation promises to blend the humor and action of early *Dragon Ball* with the detective flair of *Detective Conan*, all while paying homage to Japanese history.
