Spring 2026 Anime Season Week 3 Rankings Announced: A Battle of Giants at the Top!

As the Spring 2026 anime season continues at full speed, Anime Corner, which keeps a pulse on the community, has officially shared the popularity rankings for the third week of the season. The data this week clearly reveals both the strength of the sequel seasons of established series and the impact of newly started productions on the audience. In particular, the competition between projects from giant studios like MAPPA and A-1 Pictures proves that this season will be one of the most contested periods in recent years.
According to the results of the third week, Jujutsu Kaisen: Culling Game Arc sits at the top of the list with over 12% of the votes. This new arc of the series, which emerged from the pen of Gege Akutami and became a global phenomenon, continues to receive full marks from fans with its high production quality and dark atmosphere. Immediately following in second place is the second season of Solo Leveling, which focuses on Sung Jinwoo's epic journey. Creating great anticipation after its first season in 2024, the series does not let go of the pursuit of the top spot by increasing its action dosage in every episode.
Another production that draws attention at the top of the list is Sakamoto Days, brought to life by TMS Entertainment. Blending action and comedy, this new adaptation reached a wide audience in a short time with its fluid animations and original character designs. According to Anime Corner data, a 15% increase was observed in the total number of votes cast this week compared to the previous season. This shows that the anime industry maintains its global growth momentum and that fan interaction is becoming more digitized every day.
With the deepening of the story in the coming weeks, drama and mystery-focused series such as Oshi no Ko and The Apothecary Diaries are also expected to challenge the top spots. Since the spring season usually hosts the strongest productions of the year, it is predicted that the balances in the rankings may change every week. Anime enthusiasts continue to share in this excitement by participating in the polls held every weekend to support their favorite series.
