October 2025 Anime Lineup: My Hero Academia Final, SPY x FAMILY Season 3, To Your Eternity & More Must-Watch Shows

Spooky season is here, but October isn’t just about pumpkin spice and haunted houses, it’s also one of the juiciest months on the anime calendar. From long-awaited sequels to brand-new stories that mash up comedy, romance, and a touch of existential dread, this lineup has us ready to cancel plans and binge. Here are the anime we’re most excited to watch this month:

October 2

Let’s Play (OLM)
Based on the hit webcomic, Let’s Play drops us straight into gamer drama, meme culture, and painfully relatable social anxiety. Sam, an indie developer, is on the cusp of releasing her dream project until a streamer torpedoes it with a brutal review—and then moves in next door. Awkward? Yes. Hilarious? Absolutely. Bonus points: there’s an adorable dog you’ll probably love more than half the cast.

Kakuriyo -Bed & Breakfast for Spirits- Season 2 (GONZO and Makaria)
The cozy-food-meets-spirit-world vibes are back. After paying off her grandfather’s debts by running Moonflower, her ayakashi-friendly eatery, Aoi finds herself once again caught in the tangled politics of the hidden realm. With a crisis brewing at Tenjin-ya, it looks like this “peaceful” bed-and-breakfast is about to get anything but restful.

October 3

This Monster Wants to Eat Me (Studio Lings)
A melancholic seaside story with a twist: Hinako, still grieving the loss of her family, is saved by a mysterious mermaid named Shiori. The catch? Shiori fully admits she plans to eat her someday—but not before sticking around to protect her. This strange, bittersweet premise sets the stage for a slow-burn tale about loneliness, mortality, and the desperate hope for connection.

Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! (Asahi Production)
High society with a monstrous appetite. Lady Melphiera is known as the “Voracious Villainess” thanks to her scandalous taste for devouring monsters. At a ball, she meets her match in the infamous “Blood-Mad Duke,” a fearsome noble who might just appreciate her unusual palate. Expect gothic romance, outrageous feasts, and a heroine who refuses to nibble politely.

October 4

May I Ask for One Final Thing? (LIDENFILMS Kyoto Studio)
Scarlet has finally had enough of her insufferable fiancé, Prince Kyle, who humiliates her in public and falsely accuses her of crimes she didn’t commit. Cue her righteous fury—and a jaw-dropping beatdown that turns the aristocratic world upside down. This revenge-fueled fantasy promises catharsis, chaos, and some serious wish-fulfillment energy.

October 5

My Hero Academia: Final Season (BONES Film)
It’s the end of an era. Deku, All Might, Shigaraki, and the fate of hero society itself all collide in a last stand that fans have been waiting years for. Expect emotional gut punches, explosive battles, and hopefully a finale worthy of one of the most influential shonen of the past decade.

SPY x FAMILY Season 3 (WIT Studio & CloverWorks)
Loid, Yor, and Anya return for more chaotic family espionage. The Forgers’ delicate web of secrets continues to unravel, with world peace somehow hinging on a fake marriage, an assassin mom, and a telepathic child. Equal parts wholesome and unhinged, this season is poised to raise the stakes without losing its offbeat humour.

To Your Eternity Season 3 (Drive & Studio Massket)
After battling the Nokkers, Fushi awakens in the modern era, enjoying a rare moment of peace. But shadows loom once more as the truth behind The Beholder’s goals comes to light. With its trademark blend of heartbreak, philosophy, and survival, this new season will likely remind us why To Your Eternity is one of the most devastatingly beautiful anime running today.

Touring After the Apocalypse (Nexus)
Post-apocalyptic anime doesn’t get much softer than this. Yoko and Airi set out on a motorbike journey through a ruined Japan, snapping photos and camping among overgrown cities. Instead of doom and gloom, the story celebrates the quiet wonder of travel, freedom, and friendship in a world where the rules have disappeared.

October’s anime slate is stacked: heart-fluttering romances, revenge fantasies, apocalyptic road trips, and the long-awaited finales of mega-franchises. Whether you’re here for the feels, the fights, or the food, this month’s releases prove that fall anime season is officially peak binge season.

All of these titles (and plenty more) will be streaming on Crunchyroll this October, so clear your calendar, grab some snacks, and get ready to binge.
