by Some works remind me of the dreams I had as a child. For working people in their 40s and 50s, coming home and watching an anime with a dramatic storyline can sometimes be a hassle. Among the Fall 2025 anime, some recommended titles will soothe your tired soul and help you empathize with the main characters. Content. “Hiroshi Nohara’s Lunch Style” “Hiroshi Nohara’s Lunch Style” (character original: Yoshito Usui / manga: Yoichi Tsukahara), an animated version of the official spin-off of the nationally beloved anime “Crayon Shin-chan,” features Hiroshi Nohara (voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa), the father of Shinnosuke Nohara. The story follows Hiroshi, a salaryman, as he carefully chooses his lunch while working with his limited pocket money and time.
The highlight of this series is, of course, the meal scenes, which could be described as “food terrorism.” Hiroshi’s comical expressions as he savors his food, describing it as “spicy” or “sweet,” are sure to whet your appetite. The realistic depiction of him enjoying a luxurious lunch as a reward for a job well done is also a point that working people will empathize with.
This work is produced by DLE, the studio behind the anime “Secret Society Eagle Talon,” and is a Flash animation. Viewers of the official anime promotional video praised the Flash animation for capturing the atmosphere of the original work. “Nohara Hiroshi’s Lunch Style” will air on BS Asahi from 11:00 p.m. on Friday, October 3rd. “End of the World Touring” Based on the manga by Saito Sakae, “End of the World Touring” tells the story of two girls, Yoko (voiced by Inagaki Yoshimi) and Airi (voiced by Tomita Miyu), traveling around Japan by motorcycle in a post-apocalyptic world. The sight of the two girls traveling with shining eyes, taking in the beautiful scenery, will soothe the souls of viewers.
On the other hand, the film also features a heartbreaking drama that touches on “things that have ended in the past” and “things that are heading toward the end,” and its lingering storyline is one of its charms. The motorcycles the two women ride are also noteworthy. The bikes they operate are electric versions of the popular “Serow 225,” and any rider may yearn for their own off-road adventures in the post-apocalyptic world. Those who watched the trailer announcing the anime and the actual trailer expressed their joy and anticipation, saying things like, “I’ve recently started riding motorcycles, so this is great,” and “It looks exciting with such beautiful animation for an apocalyptic story.”
“Higashijima Tanzaburou Wants to Become Kamen Rider” Adults who love “Kamen Rider” are likely to relate to the anime “Higashijima Tanzaburou Wants to Become Kamen Rider” (original story by Shibata Yokusaru/cooperation by Ishimori Productions and Toei). Tanzaburou Higashijima (voiced by Katsuyuki Konishi), a 40-year-old part-time worker, aspires to become a Kamen Rider. Just when he’s about to give up on his dream, he gets caught up in a controversial “Fake Shocker” robbery, and his fate begins to change dramatically. Higashijima’s admiration for Kamen Rider is so intense that he collects a tremendous amount of merchandise and retreats to the mountains to become stronger. His earnest pursuit of Kamen Rider will surely evoke childhood memories for adults who watched “Kamen Rider.”
This highly anticipated new anime series is garnering rave reviews, with the first trailer already surpassing 1.4 million views. Viewers have praised the trailer, saying things like, “It touches the hearts of all of us older guys who love the original Kamen Rider,” and “It faithfully recreates the atmosphere of the original.” “Tanzaburou Higashijima Wants to Become Kamen Rider” will air on TOKYO MX, Gunma TV, and other channels starting at 12:30 a.m. on Saturday, October 4th.
