2026 Anime Comebacks That’ll Make You Believe in......

There was a time we thought hype was dead. So many great anime vanished after a season or two. Others ended with no closure. Studios ghosted us. We stopped getting our hopes up.

But not anymore.

2026 is here to change everything. This is the year the comebacks are real — and better than we ever imagined. The kind of returns that make you scream at your screen, text your anime group chat in all caps, and rewatch the trailer ten times in a row.

These are the anime comebacks of 2026 — and they’ll make you believe in the hype all over again.

1. Chainsaw Man: Part 2 – A New Nightmare Begins

Denji’s back — and everything’s different. With Part 2, the tone shifts, the stakes grow, and new characters flip the entire story. Fans are already losing it over Asa Mitaka and the War Devil, and the animation? Still insane. This comeback is going to break the internet.

2. Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Final War Ends

When Bleach made its return, it brought the heat. Now, in 2026, we’re getting the last part. The true final battles. The ultimate forms. The long-awaited end to one of anime’s biggest legends. Get ready for soul-crushing fights and a finale worth every second of the wait.

3. Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 – The Culling Game Starts Now

If you survived the trauma of Season 2, brace yourself. Season 3 adapts the Culling Game arc — and it’s absolute chaos. Yuji, Megumi, Yuta, and a whole lineup of cursed fighters battle in the deadliest tournament ever. You’ll cheer. You’ll scream. You’ll suffer. But it’s going to be legendary.

4. Re:Zero Season 3 – Pain, Power, and Witches

We waited over three years. But now Subaru’s nightmare continues in Season 3. The new arc brings fresh enemies, new witches, and even more impossible choices. No resets will save him this time — and the emotional damage will be real.

5. Noragami Season 3 – Yato’s Past Unleashed

No one believed it was coming back. But here it is. Noragami returns with a powerful third season, diving into Yato’s dark past and the heavenly politics that could destroy him. Fans of Hiyori, Yukine, and the most chaotic god around — your time has come.

6. Solo Leveling Season 2 – The Monarch Rises

Jinwoo is done playing nice. After a flawless debut season, Solo Leveling returns with even bigger fights, god-tier enemies, and the rise of the Shadow Monarch. It’s faster. Darker. Stronger. And the animation? Still jaw-dropping. The hype train is at full speed.

7. One Punch Man Season 3 – Garou vs. Everyone

The monster arc is here — and so is Garou. One Punch Man returns with the most explosive, high-stakes battles in the series so far. It’s not just a comedy anymore. It’s a straight-up war. And Saitama? Still effortlessly overpowered, of course.

8. No Game No Life Season 2 – Believe the Impossible

The sequel we all thought was a meme is now real. Sora and Shiro return for more twisted logic games and god-level strategy. After nearly a decade of silence, No Game No Life is back — and every second of it looks brilliant.

9. Yona of the Dawn Season 2 – The Dragon Princess Rises Again

It’s one of the most emotional and underrated fantasy anime of all time. And in 2026, Yona of the Dawn finally continues. Yona’s journey to take back her kingdom grows deeper, more dangerous, and more romantic than ever. The fans never gave up — and it paid off.

10. Mob Psycho 100 – Final Goodbye Special

Mob said goodbye, but Studio Bones had one more surprise. In 2026, a final special drops — one last story to close out Mob’s coming-of-age journey. Quiet, weird, beautiful, and full of heart. You’ll smile through tears the whole time.

11. Classroom of the Elite Season 3 – Trust No One

The drama. The tension. The mind games. Classroom of the Elite makes its return with more manipulation, more chaos, and Ayanokoji pulling strings like a puppet master. This school is still no place for trust — and the hype just keeps growing.

12. The Rising of the Shield Hero Season 4 – Darkness Ahead

Naofumi has survived everything. But Season 4 takes him into unknown territory — where trust is scarce and betrayal is deadly. This comeback isn’t just about fighting. It’s about what happens when a hero starts losing faith.
