When does the next anime season start?

Anime seasons run quarterly: Winter (January–March), Spring (April–June), Summer (July–September) and Fall (October–December). Most shows premiere in the first two weeks of the season.

Where can I watch upcoming anime?

Most upcoming anime simulcast on Crunchyroll, Netflix, Hulu, HIDIVE or Amazon Prime within hours of the Japanese broadcast. Each show's page on what-anime.com lists every confirmed streaming platform per region.

How often is this list updated?

We sync the upcoming season lineup every six hours from AniList and MyAnimeList, so new announcements, cast reveals, trailer drops and premiere-date changes show up the same day.

What's the difference between simulcast and dub release?

Simulcasts are the original Japanese audio with subtitles, streamed worldwide within hours of broadcast. English dubs typically arrive 2–6 weeks later as recording finishes - some shows now release "SimulDub" episodes the same week.

How do you decide which anime are most anticipated?

Our ranking uses AniList popularity, MyAnimeList member counts, trailer view velocity, and signals from our own users (Hype votes, watchlist adds). The top shows on this page update in real time.
