2026 Spring Anime Season Officially Begins: Which Series Are Premiering Today?
Today, Monday, March 30, marks a major milestone for the anime world. The 2026 Spring Anime Season has officially started, and the first productions have begun to find their place on screens. With the comprehensive guide shared by Comic Natalie, one of Japan's leading news sources, fans have already started planning which series to watch on which day. This season looks to be a candidate for one of the most ambitious periods in recent years, with both long-awaited major sequel seasons and new adaptations with great potential.
Among the most notable productions of the season are the new episodes of Jujutsu Kaisen, which MAPPA studio has been working on meticulously, and the eagerly awaited continuation of Solo Leveling. While the new arcs, which have critical importance in the story flow of Jujutsu Kaisen, are expected to be the highlight of this season, a very busy April is just around the corner for action genre fans. Additionally, anime adaptations of popular manga such as Sakamoto Days and Blue Box will also debut during this period, increasing the variety of the season.
From an industrial perspective, the 2026 spring season stands out with the increase in production quality and strategic planning. The fact that studios are now using the "split-cour" strategy more widely helps maintain animation quality and balance the load on production teams. This situation is clearly felt, especially in the projects of giants like Ufotable and A-1 Pictures. Fans can expect not only immersive storytelling but also a visual feast that pushes technical boundaries.
Over the next few weeks, a new premiere will take place every day, and the broadcast schedule will become increasingly crowded. If you haven't decided which series to start yet, checking out the current lists and trailers released today might be a good start. It is already clear that this season will be full of theories that will be talked about in the anime community for a long time and social media agendas. Spring 2026 will be a time to both meet old friends and discover new favorites!
