There is something special about hearing Sean Schemmel’s Goku or Jason Douglas’s Beerus deliver a familiar line in English. For many North American fans, these performances are just as much a part of Dragon Ball as the fights, transformations, and increasingly ridiculous power levels. That is why the announcement of Dragon Ball Super: Beerus has…
There is something wonderfully satisfying about an anime character getting fired by the people who supposedly need him, only to turn around and become completely overpowered without them. That is exactly the kind of setup that caught my attention with The Laid-Off Cheat-Granting Mage Enjoys a Second Lease on Life, and the Fall 2026 anime…
There are plenty of reincarnation anime every season, and honestly, it takes something pretty special to make me stop and pay attention. Nia Liston: The Merciless Maiden managed to do exactly that. The premise sounds familiar at first — a legendary warrior is reincarnated into another body — but the execution has a much nastier…
Magical Explorer: Reborn as a Side Character in a Fantasy Dating Sim is exactly the kind of anime that can either become a surprisingly addictive seasonal favorite or collapse under the weight of its own gimmick. Personally, I was interested from the moment I saw the premise: an experienced gamer gets reincarnated into a fantasy…
Anime has never been afraid of turning the most unexpected subjects into surprisingly intense stories. We have seen shows about gambling, cooking, idols, competitive games, office politics, and even the emotional trauma of buying the wrong train ticket.

There are plenty of anime about gambling, risk-taking, and people making absolutely terrible financial decisions. But FX Fighter Kurumi-chan feels like it is taking that formula somewhere much more uncomfortable: the real world. Also known as FX Senshi Kurumi-chan in Japan, the upcoming Fall 2026 anime follows university student Kurumi Fukuga as she enters the…
There is always that one anime each season that suddenly seems to be everywhere. For Fall 2026, I have a feeling Overgeared could be that series. If you have followed Korean webtoons or web novels for any length of time, the name probably already means something to you. If not, this is a pretty interesting…
I honestly wasn’t sure this day was ever going to arrive. Saga of Tanya the Evil fans have spent years doing what anime fans do best when a sequel takes forever: checking old announcements, arguing about production schedules, revisiting the first season, and convincing ourselves that surely the next update was coming soon. Now, after…
