Check out some anticipated series in the video above or the slideshow gallery below, followed by the full list of new Winter season 2024 anime and where to watch them in the U.S. and their respective streaming platforms. Anime listed are available now unless otherwise stated.
Mashle: Magic and Muscles Season 2 (Crunchyroll)
The insanely strong, cream puff-loving Mash is back in Season 2 of Mashle: Magic and Muscles. The last time we saw our protagonist, Mash’s classmates came to a sudden realization after witnessing all these strange recent events. After the ridiculously hilarious chaos of Season 1, this new reveal will only further complicate matters as the school year goes on. If you’re looking for a fun series with some action-packed magic and non-magic sequences, Mashle: Magic and Muscles may be a good fit for you. Season 2 of the series is now available on Crunchyroll.
Blue Exorcist: Shimane Illuminati Saga (Crunchyroll, Funimation)
Speaking of anticipated returns, Blue Exorcist is back with Season 3 of the Shimane Illuminati Saga. It’s been about seven years since the Kyoto Saga, so it’s great to see Rin and the gang again with yet another UVERworld opening theme. For those new to the series, Blue Exorcist follows Rin, a half-demon who also happens to be a son of Satan. Using his demonic powers, he trains to be an exorcist to eventually defeat his father. Studio VOLN, which is known for Ushio & Tora and Karakuri Circus, is taking over animation production for this third season. We look forward to seeing how the new season shapes up after all these years. Blue Exorcist: Shimane Illuminati Saga is available now on Crunchyroll and Funimation.
Metallic Rouge (Crunchyroll)
In a season full of fantasy, this new sci-fi title, Metallic Rouge, may be a nice change of pace for those that prefer cyberpunk vibes. This original series follows Rouge, an android on a mission that brings her to the planet Mars to take down a group of people known as the Immortal Nine. Bones, the studio known for Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Mob Psycho 100, is producing this series so we expect to see some slick action-packed visuals as the season goes on. Metallic Rouge is now available on Crunchyroll.
A Sign of Affection (Crunchyroll)
In the mood for something on the lighter side with some romance? A Sign of Affection may be the right fit for you! This series follows Yuki, a deaf university student, who meets a fascinating person on her commute who helps her with a predicament. Aija-do is the animation studio behind this series and their notable work includes Ascendance of a Bookworm and Kemono Jihen. The two connect pretty quickly early on so we look forward to seeing how their relationship blossoms in this anticipated romance series. A Sign of Affection is now available on Crunchyroll.
Delicious in Dungeon (Netlfix)
Are you looking for a fun fantasy show that just happens to have very well-animated food? Delicious in Dungeon is the series to check out this winter season! As the name suggests, our protagonists are eating well as they progress through monster-filled dungeons to save a party member. Although the source of the food is questionable, they look very appetizing. We’re talking Food Wars-level of visually astounding food! Studio Trigger is at the helm of this hilarious series so we can expect amazing scenes, apart from the mouth-watering food. Delicious in Dungeon is now available on Netflix.
Solo Leveling (Crunchyroll)
Speaking of dungeons, one of the most anticipated anime of 2024 is finally here with Solo Leveling! This anime adaptation of the popular Korean webtoon follows Jinwoo, the weakest hunter in the world, who continues to travel into mysterious dungeons to provide for his family. After seeing the first couple of episodes, we can start to see where this is going as it escalates quickly and violently. A-1 Pictures, which is known for Sword Art Online and Erased, is heading this series so we look forward to possibly seeing some amazing action sequences alongside the darker themes that we’ve been teased so far. Solo Leveling is shaping up to be one of the biggest shonen anime this year, so check it out if you’re even just a little bit interested. The series is available now on Crunchyroll.
