3. Tokyo Revengers: Season 3

Tokyo Revengers is gifting the anime world with not one but two seasons in 2023. The fun and engrossing anime released their second season in January 2023 and will be releasing season three in October 2023. Tokyo Revengers is based on the manga written and created by Ken Wakui. The anime series, directed by Koichi Hatsumi and produced by Liden Films, released its first season in April 2021. It quickly became a fan favorite due to its lovable characters, action-packed fight scenes, a protagonist viewers can root for, and a storyline that dabbles in time travel. 

Tokyo Revengers follows twenty-six-year-old Takemichi Hanagaki as he discovers his middle school ex-girlfriend was killed in a gang violence-related incident. He then travels back in time to save her, reappearing as his middle school self. Season two covered parts of the Valhalla Arc and all of the Black Dragon Arc that ended on a dark, foreshadowing note of future events. It’s a whirlwind of a series full of promises for this upcoming third season, which will follow the Tenjiku Arc, a highly received arc in the manga that follows the rising tension between Takemichi and Tetta Kisaki; a storyline that fans know will exceed expectations.  

Season 3 will air in October 2023 and can be watched on Crunchyroll and Hulu with a subscription. 

2. Spy x Family: Season 2

Spy x Family will release its highly anticipated season 2 in October 2023. Spy x Family is based on the manga written by Tatsuya Endo, while the anime series, directed by Kazuhiro Furuhashi and produced by Wit Studios and Cloverworks, aired its first season in April of 2022. It was highly received due to its jaw-dropping animation style, intense and thought-provoking plot, and lovable characters. 

Season one was a fantastically entertaining debut of Loid Forger’s mission to bring world peace by infiltrating and spying on Donovan Desmond. Being the recluse Desmond is, Forger’s only viable plan of action is to create a “family” by marrying Yor Forger and enrolling his adopted child, Anya, into the same school Desmond’s son is in. Though the pacing of the show can be a bit hit-or-miss, fans can’t get enough of the adorable Anya as she tries, and mostly fails, to help her father with his mission or the comedy of Yor trying to act as the perfect wife, despite her being a ruthless assassin (a fact that Loid does not know of).

With season 1 becoming such a hit, season 2 has been highly anticipated. While season 1 focuses more on the bonding of the Forgers, every one of them strangers not too long ago, season 2 will feature more scenes, plots, and action sequences that revolve around the mission. Season 2 can be watched starting October of 2023 via Crunchyroll and Hulu. 

1. Attack on Titan: Season 4 Part 4 

Last but certainly not least, Attack on Titan is releasing its fourth installment of season 4 in October of 2023. And yes, it has been confirmed that this is the end. For AOT fans, to say this season has been drawn out is an understatement, but that doesn’t damper the buzz viewers are feeling as October comes closer and closer. The epic anime is based on the manga series written by Hajime Isayama. The first 59 episodes of the series was produced by Wit Studios, but was then transferred to MAPPA, who has been animating and releasing new episodes since. 

Attack on Titan has gripped viewers since its season one release in 2013, from its revolutionary animation style to a plot line that is binge-worthy. AOT follows main protagonist (and later main antagonist) Eren Yeager as he seeks freedom for him and his people at any cost necessary, even if it means burning the rest of the world to the ground (literally). The final installment of AOT will draw the beloved franchise to a close, marking the end of a legendary era, and while fans are ready for the series to come to its final close, it won’t make it any less bittersweet. 

Fans can watch season 4 part 4 on Crunchyroll and Hulu as Mikaska, Armin, and company unite for their final battle to stop Eren Yeager. A battle that will end all battles.
