Spooky season ain’t the only thing to get excited about.
It doesn’t take a girl math genius to figure out that there’s more to fall than pumpkin spice and live-action comfort films. The autumn winds are blowing, and on them are new anime, more numerous than the fallen leaves! Just because summer is over doesn’t mean that the fun has to stop. I DEMAND that the fun keep going. I don’t want to have to wait around until Halloween when I can scare the neighborhood children to get my kicks. I want autumnal fun NOW. And these anime are gonna give it to me.

After 10 years, and 10 autumns with them, Attack on Titan is finally coming to an end. Attack on Titan: The Final Chapters Part 2 will give us the climatic and blood-soaked end to the Game of Thrones of anime. Jaeger has gone full bad guy and unleashed The Rumbling across the world. Thousands of Colossal Titans are stepping on cities like a child crunching autumn leaves. The entire human race will be destroyed unless Eren’s friends can stop him.

Castlevania: Nocturne is not the Castlevania season 5 that the internet asked for, but it’s the season 5 that the internet deserves. Set during the French Revolution, the plot will center around the young Richter Belmont, a distant descendant of Trevor Belmont and Sypha. While Trevor and Sypha are long dead, they live on in Richter’s explody-whip that was once wielded by his great x 30 grandfather! And who knows? Perhaps our favorite bisexual half-vamp Alucard will return. He is immortal, after all.

I intend to spend my autumn sitting around getting Dr. Stone-d and watching the third season of this series. In case you’ve never heard of Dr. Stone, allow me to elucidate you. In the future, humanity has been all but wiped out by a mysterious disease that has turned them all to stone. Lucky for the world, the world’s youngest Ph.D. has figured out how to unpetrify himself, and is now using the power of science to find a cure for the world!

Undead Unluck is a series about a sweet little girl whose unfortunate “unluck” ability causes her to kill anyone she has skin-to-skin contact with. Lucky for her, she meets a suicidal young man whose “undead” ability makes him totally unable to die! The pair decide to team up and join a mysterious organization made to fight God. Yes, God. Why? To end the world’s suffering! Any God that makes a little girl unable to touch her family without killing them is a total prick.
KamiErabi God.app

KamiErabi God.app sure sounds like a computer virus, and in a sense it is. This anime centers around a group of people engaging in a battle royale to see who will become God. Sounds a lot like Future Diary, no? But rather than a death battle waged with early 00s burner phones, this battle will be waged with hi-tech new smartphones with a mysterious battle app.

Now a socially awkward magical girl named Shy is taking up the superhero mantle, and just in time too! The world is being threatened by a group of evil magical children who wish the drag the human race back into its dark and violent past.

Spy x Family stole all of our hearts with its depiction of the adorable Forger family, made up of an international super-spy dad, a deadly assassin mom, a mind-reading little girl, and a future-telling dog. Now The Forgers are returning for a glorious second season where they will be going on a cruise ship vacation! Well … it would be a vacation if the assassin/mom Yor Forger wasn’t contracted to protect a rich family onboard the boat from a team of elite killers.
