July 2026 is shaping up to be one of the biggest anime seasons in recent memory. Between long-awaited finales, surprise sequels, and fresh new titles from top studios, there is something for everyone. If you have been waiting for the right moment to start a new watchlist, this summer may finally be it.
1. Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Cour 4 – The Calamity
The final battle against Quincy King Yhwach is almost here. Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Cour 4 – The Calamity brings Soul Society’s war to its epic conclusion. Studio Pierrot returns with director Tomohisa Taguchi and composer Shiro Sagisu, promising the kind of cinematic finale fans have been hoping for since the arc began.
2. Saga of Tanya the Evil Season 2
Tanya Degurechaff and the Salamander Combat Group return for another round of brutal warfare. This sequel has been anticipated for years, and its comeback puts it among the most talked-about releases of the month. Multiple language dubs have already been confirmed, making it a global event.
3. Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 3
After a quieter second season focused on Rudeus’ emotional growth, Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 3 is expected to bring back the series’ trademark adventure. Studio Bind is once again at the helm, and fan-favorite Eris is set to rejoin the story. Crunchyroll has confirmed English, Hindi, and other language dubs.
4. Black Torch Season 1
Newcomer Black Torch follows Jiro Azuma, a ninja who can talk to animals and merges with Rago, a powerful black cat spirit. The supernatural shonen is packed with yokai, fast-paced fights, and a secret war between humans and spirits.
5. Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You Season 1
For romance fans, this cozy series centers on Sasaki, a tired office worker, and Yamada, a supermarket employee. Their quiet smoke-break conversations slowly grow into something deeper, offering a mature and relatable take on romance.
6. Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia
Produced by Science SARU, the studio behind hits like Devilman Crybaby and Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!, this original fantasy draws inspiration from Mongolian culture. With rich world-building and bold visuals, it stands out as one of the most unique debuts of the season.
7. Kaiju Girl Caramelise Season 1
Kuroe transforms into a giant kaiju whenever her emotions run wild. Blending romantic comedy with monster chaos, Kaiju Girl Caramelise looks like the season’s most charming oddity.
8. Clevatess Season 2
The dark fantasy continues with a school arc, introducing new characters while the young prince’s journey with Clevatess deepens. Fans of mystery and dark fantasy should keep this on their radar.
9. The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You Season 3
Rentaro’s absurdly large harem keeps growing. What started as a parody has become a genuinely beloved comedy, and several new girlfriends are joining the chaos this season.
10. My Hero Academia: “I Am a Hero Too”
Although it is a short special rather than a full season, this 10th-anniversary story brings back Izuku Midoriya and the U.A. heroes for one more heartfelt adventure. Longtime fans will not want to miss it.
Why July 2026 Matters
Summer 2026 is not just another anime season. With Bleach ending, Saga of Tanya the Evil returning, and Science SARU debuting an original project, the lineup covers nearly every genre. Whether you want action, romance, fantasy, or comedy, this July has you covered.
