New year, new season of anime! It is Winter 2026 time! So, it’s time to talk about the shows that have already started airing and what will be airing in the coming days. If you would like a dedicated episode thread for a show that has aired but @rikka@ani.social didn’t make one, you can request it by pm. Like always, discussion about any other anime topic is also welcome!

As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).

    Here’s my list from @alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works’s season schedule post

    • Freiren S2
    • Oshi No Ko S3
    • Jujutsu Kaisen S3
    • Jigokuraku/Hell’s Paradise S2
    • Fire Force S2 cours 2
    • Tis Time For Torture, Princess S2
    • Demon Lord’s Daughter Is Too Kind
    • The Daily Life of a Part-Time Torturer
    • Medalist S2
    • MF Ghost S3 (for those with acquired tastes)
    • Sentenced To Be A Hero
    • My Hero Academia: Vigilantes S2
    • Roll Over and Die/“Omae Gotoki ga Maou ni Kateru to Omouna” to Yuusha Party wo Tsuihou sareta node, Outo de Kimama ni Kurashitai

    Looking at tracker data from this past weekend:

    It looks like Kizoku Tensei is getting a lot of interest, even though it looks like standard isekai trash, and reviews are coming back with questionable production values.

    Majutsushi Kunon wa Mieteiru is also getting slightly more interest and better reviews. The main characters, i.e. Kunon and the maid, seem to be enjoyable, and the show is funny, according to reviews.

    Sentenced To Be A Hero/Yuusha-kei ni Shosu hit it out of the park with nearly double the already-successful numbers of the 2 shows above.
