The second month of the exciting Spring 2026\u00a0anime<\/a>\u00a0season is finally here as some of the greatest anime of the year made their debut in April. The first month of the ongoing season includes some of the greatest anime ever, including Witch Hat Atelier, Nippon Sangoku,\u00a0and many more. Additionally, many sequels were also released this season, including Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 and Wistoria: Wand and Sword Season 2. While most of the anime released in every season stream on Crunchyroll, HIDIVE has its own slate of new releases for each month.<\/p>\n
