Top New Anime Seasons in 2025 - How About Attack on Titan?

Anime fans, 2025 is already setting appetites alight with a slate prepared to blow minds, steal hearts, and have screens blazing well past dark. You want new seasons? Fresh stories? Thrilling showdowns? This year's got it all. And right at the centre of this mayhem is the unmovable Attack on Titan. It's back, it's big, and—if rumors are anything to go by—it's about to leave us gasping (again).

But there's so much more to talk about besides the titans and epic battles. The world of anime is dishing out one of its richest, wildest years yet. Let's break it down.

Attack on Titan: Still Towering Above

What is there to be said about the strength of Attack on Titan? It's not just a show; it's an experience. This is no ordinary "togas and fistfights, bigger blasts" type of anime. No. This one digs deep in betrayal, morality, survival—and then tosses giant monsters into the mix to keep you sweating.

This new season? The stakes are ridiculous. Eren, who once felt like the plucky hero you’d root for, has become. something else entirely. A villain? A savior? Maybe both. What is certain is that the impact of his actions is huge. Alliances are falling apart, loyalties are under threat, and those grand campaigns? Yeah, they’re still here—grittier and more intense than ever.

Expect heartbreak. Expect the unexpected. Expect to finish every episode staring at the screen in stunned silence.

The Big Names Rolling Back In

If Attack on Titan wasn't enough to make anime fans scream, the comeback of its heavyweight rivals has everyone gearing up for a year of binge-watching.

First up, Demon Slayer. Inescapable: beautiful imagery, explosive fighting, and heart-wrenching storylines that hit like a freight train. Nezuko and Tanjiro are back, and word on the street is that this season puts them under their most difficult test yet.

Then there's Jujutsu Kaisen. Honestly, if you're not hyped for more cursed energy chaos, what are you watching? Antagonism between mages and their foes is fiercer than ever before. And Gojo? Well, let's just say you'll be talking about him for months after this season finishes.

My Hero Academia is back, and it's going to leave you feeling some kind of intensity—it's still such a fan favorite. The characters are growing, evolving—and so are the villains. This season's going to push everybody to be at the very top of their game.

New Players, Bold Stories

While the big leagues are hogging most of the attention, 2025 is the year of new stars that are already punching well beyond their weight.

Much has been said about Eclipse Syndicate. It's not your typical setup for an anime: stylish science fiction for conspiracy, a landscape that's not what it appears at all, and a hero and anti-hero at the very edge of the spectrum.

And then there’s Celestial Forge. Imagine vast fantasy worlds, myths from the deepest past, and battles saturated in mysticism. The art? Gorgeous. The plot? Deep enough to get lost in. If you’re a fan of beautifully crafted worlds, this one’s for you.

Why 2025 Hits Different

What makes this year stand out? It’s the sheer variety. You've got the gut-punching narrative present in Attack on Titan, the visual spectacle of Demon Slayer, the pure power in Jujutsu Kaisen, and the burgeoning new talent.

However, it's also an impression that anime is evolving to new levels, not only in animation, but in narration. These aren’t just “shows. They’re emotional rollercoasters, cultural milestones, and, honestly, works of art.

Final Words

And here we are, perched at the edge of another year that will redefine the anime landscape, whether you're here for the familiar thrill of Attack on Titan or ready to dive into uncharted territory with Eclipse Syndicate; 2025 is full of reasons to get hyped.

Now the only question will be: What's the first episode you're hitting play on?
