by This fall will be a festival season for anime fans. ” SPY×FAMILY Season 3,” “My Hero Academia FINAL SEASON,” “Ranma 1/2 Season 2,” “Kingdom Season 6,” and “Blue Orchestra Season 2” are all set to premiere simultaneously. With a stellar lineup of titles, this fall promises to be a luxurious season for anime fans.
In this article, we’ll take a look at five of this fall’s most anticipated sequels and review the must-see highlights for the new chapter. “SPY×FAMILY” Season 3 “SPY×FAMILY” began with the skilled spy Twilight building a fake family under the guise of Loid Forger. The process of how a relationship that was supposed to be temporary for the sake of a mission gradually develops into genuine warmth has captivated many fans.
The highlight of the second season was the luxury cruise ship arc, in which Yor undertook an escort mission. This episode, featuring both tense action and the quiet growth of trust as a family, marked a significant turning point for the series. Season three is expected to cover events from volume nine onward, delving deeper into the characters’ inner lives with Lloyd’s new mission, everyday anecdotes centered around Franky, and episodes delving into Yor’s inner thoughts. In particular, the process of gradually closing the gap with his target, Desmond, is a crucial moment directly linked to the overall storyline. How will they reconcile the warmth of family with the cold-hearted missions of a spy? Season three will likely be the season in which the dual nature of “SPY x FAMILY” is most prominent.
“My Hero Academia FINAL SEASON” “My Hero Academia” began as the story of a quirkless boy named Deku’s quest to become the “greatest hero.” Season 7 featured a series of episodes that delved into the heart of the story, including the battle between America’s No. 1 hero, Stars and Stripes, the revelation of the traitor at U.A. High School, and the showdown between Todoroki Shoto and his brother, Dabi. Season 8 finally kicks off the final chapter, dubbed “FINAL SEASON.” Deku and Shigaraki Tomura, All Might and All For One.
Their respective fates converge, and the final battle begins. It’s not just a clash of abilities; it’s a clash of the lives and beliefs they’ve lived. Of particular note is the presence of ” Shimura Tenko, ” hidden within Shigaraki. How Deku confronts the loneliness and anger he harbors embodies the overall theme of the story. Another major highlight will be how All Might, now deprived of his powers, will ultimately appear as a symbol. Looking back at the past as we approach the final chapter, the meaning of the ending will be even more vivid and moving.
“Ranma 1/2” Season 2 Rumiko Takahashi’s masterpiece, “Ranma 1/2,” has long been beloved for its bizarre premise—a man who transforms into a woman when splashed with water—and its slapstick comedy centered around Ranma and Akane. The first season of the new anime revisits the secrets of Jusenkyo and life at the Tendo household, and popular characters like Hibiki Ryoga and Shampoo make a return with modern quality. It’s a work that evokes both nostalgia and freshness. Season 2 is expected to depict episodes from the original story that weren’t touched upon in the original anime. The story will unfold even more vibrantly with the introduction of new characters, as well as the growing closer relationship between Ranma and Akane despite their differences.
This work, which exquisitely combines comedy, fighting action, and heartwarming romantic comedy, continues to depict the “universal youth” that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. In this new chapter, not only will the presence of Ranma and Akane be further highlighted, but the unique characters themselves will also be even more prominent. The human drama that emerges as the characters get caught up in the chaotic whirlwind is perhaps the greatest pleasure of this series.
“Kingdom” Season 6 Set in the Spring and Autumn Warring States period, “Kingdom” tells the story of Ying Zheng, who aims to unify China, and Shin, who dreams of becoming the greatest general in the world. In Season 5, Shin was promoted to commander of 5,000 men and took part in the Battle of Heolian Hill as a member of Kanki’s army. It was striking to see the Hi Shin Unit grow as an organization and Shin himself begin to realize his role as a general. Season 6 depicts the “Siege of Ye,” which finally marks the beginning of the battle to unify China.
The three greatest generals, Wang Jian, Kanki, and Yang Duanhe, gather together and use their wits to strategize with the famous Zhao general, Li Mu. The battles will be centered on national-scale fighting, such as the attack and defense of supply lines and strategic guessing. They will unfold in a way that transcends the individual bravery of previous stories. Shin’s Hi Shin Unit also joins the battle as an independent mobile force, and how he will lead his comrades as a general is a question. What answers will Shin come up with in this large-scale battle where Wang Jian’s ingenuity, Kanki’s cruelty, and Yang Duanhe’s leadership skills intersect? Watching it after some preparation will surely convey the tension even more vividly.
“Blue Orchestra Season 2” “Blue Orchestra” depicts the story of Aono Hajime, a former prodigy who had sealed away his violin, as he rediscovers his passion for music through his encounters with his friends. The first season depicted Aono’s youthful days as he confronted his past and wove music together with his friends. Their performance at the regular concert resonated with many viewers. The second season is set in a new orchestra club after the retirement of the third-year students.
The core second-year students, who have previously relied on their seniors for support, are now leading the club. One of the highlights of the series will be how these members, who are burdened not only with their performance skills but also with the “invisible weight” of relationships and a sense of responsibility, weave a single sound. How will the relationship between Aono and Akioto Ritsuko change, and how will they confront the new challenges that arise? This latest chapter, where the freshness of youth and the tension of music overlap, will vividly depict the theme of moving from the individual to the collective.
The sequels, which will begin in the fall of 2025, will each be special seasons that mark a turning point in the story. Before the broadcast, it would be a good idea to take a moment to look back on the story so far. By remembering past episodes and the characters’ journeys, each episode of the new season will remain even more vivid in your memory. Why not rediscover these works as autumn begins?
