Published Sep 15, 2026, 2:46 PM EDT An experienced Editor representing Canada via ScreenRant's Team Anime, J.R. has been reading manga since the first printing of Shonen Jump in North America. This passion drove him to write about anime, manga, and manhwa since 2022, having recently served as Lead Anime Editor for ComicBook.com. His favorite moments in media coverage include reviewing the series premieres of Zom 100 and Bleach: TYBW Part 2 back-to-back and briefly meeting Junji Ito at a VIZ gallery event in 2023. Sign in to your ScreenRant account For a streaming service as dedicated to getting as many new series out to the public as possible, it never quite gets old to say that Crunchyroll has one of its most impressive lineups in recent memory coming in Fall 2026. It includes widely-anticipated adaptations of Shonen Jump cult classics long left underexposed, and more than one shojo production garnering plenty of excitement of their own. As revealed by Crunchyroll itself, the Fall 2026 lineup may start slow with some late-September premieres, but the new month will start off with positively packed premieres including the long-awaited return of Black Clover for season 2. Knowing which anime will release on what day can be overwhelming, and it's not unreasonable to want a resource for use to catch the latest episodes before social media erupts with discourse over the latest episodes. Early premieres of multiple MMO-themed anime will certainly captivate the right audiences, but soon enough, new anime will be flooding the service for the first several weeks of October, from returning sports hits, to the latest goblin isekai or other whimsical titles exploring the world of foreign currency exchange. Crunchyroll's Fall 2026 lineup is quite difficult to ignore with such an impressive spread of titles, so one can find every series, by order of release date, below.

Tuesday, October 13 -- -- Dreamland Ellipse & La Chouette Compagnie Friday, October 16 -- -- PSYREN Satelight TBD English, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German, French, Hindi, Thai TBD An astonishing 34 new series and season returns are dropping on Crunchyroll over the course of just under three weeks, close to two new shows per day overall. Naturally, seasonal slates like these are boosted by generation-defining runs like the third-season return of The Apothecary Diaries, but there's plenty of new content to chew on as well. Light novel adaptations aplenty will feature in this lineup and, as always, are easy to spot—just run a word count, works every time—but there's plenty of exciting material for every brand of fan, with plenty of them featuring a broad array of dub options. Any updates for dub release dates will be reflected here when possible in future updates. Reimagined Classics & Returning Hits Define The Fall 2026 Crunchyroll Lineup While seinen gems like The Apothecary Diaries certainly turn heads every time they join an anime lineup, it's impossible to ignore the multiple older classics getting their dues this time around, particularly for the shojo demographic. Red River will be continuing its anime going into the fall season, with new episodes every Tuesday, and Magic Knight Rayearth is coming back after close to 30 years between animated adaptations, certainly one of CLAMP's most beloved manga projects. But even older shojo manga adaptations aren't the only avenue being taken by studios, with Firefly Wedding by JoJo's studio David Production sure to capture attention. Additionally, other anime returns going into Fall 2026 include: The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System (GoHands) – New episodes on Thursdays Please Excuse My Younger Brothers (Lay-duce) – New episodes on Fridays Case Closed (Detective Conan) (TMS Entertainment) – New episodes on Saturdays Star Detective Precure! (Toei Animation) – New episodes on Saturdays Naturally, though, the conversation must eventually shift toward the long-awaited return of Black Clover. With 170 episodes in the "season 1" run garnering a following so massive it conquered much of the world's attention during the 2020 pandemic before a five-year hiatus, season 2 has gone over well at its Anime Expo screening, which bodes well for its upcoming streaming debut. It's possibly the singular series bearing the most hype out of all of Crunchyroll's Fall 2026 slate, and should absolutely not be underestimated as it boasts Pierrot's refined seasonal production model, and adapts the best story arc for the anime to date, and possibly its greatest overall. Even still, there are noteworthy anime even beyond massive headliners. J.C.Staff's Overgeared will adapt Saenal's webnovel and Monohumbug's webtoon adaptation, another momentous occasion for Korean-Japanese collaboration as it brings some much-needed comedy into the usual manhwa anime scene. Yet another example of what to look for comes out of Dreamland, a manfra adaptation, or bandes dessinées (French comics) inspired by manga in the vein of Radiant. The French have a rich, storied history of appreciation for anime and manga, and this particular action-fantasy series will adapt the ongoing 20-year-old manfra of the same name. For all the usual things that can be said about Crunchyroll, between its multiple controversies over the past several years from AI dubbing to layoffs, it's hard to deny the breadth of content they can bring while still keeping a watchful eye for any shenanigans involving German subtitles. But for now, it's perfectly fair to still be excited for the multitude of gorgeous shows coming to Crunchyroll, to close 2026 with a bang.
