Crunchyroll Season Update: Summer 2025 Lineup

Gachiakuta

Future dystopias are not a nice place to live in, if you are not at the top. People can be discarded and thrown away like trash. That’s what happens to young Rudo, falsely accused of the murder of his foster father. Rudo is thrown away and lands in the Abyss, where he finds friends and starts fighting trash beasts, waiting for the day he can exact his revenge on the real murderer and the people who wrongly sentenced him.

Betrothed to My Sister's Ex

Marie is the second-born of a baron, and she’s always been exploited by her parents, being told that she’s ugly, useless and worthless. One day Duke Kyros falls in love with her, but because of a misunderstanding he mistakenly proposes to Anastasia, Marie’s older sister. But when Anastasia disappears and is presumed dead, Marie has to marry Kyros. How long will it take for Marie to understand that she is the one that her husband really loved?

Nyaight of the Living Cat

They live. They go after you and, if you aren’t quick enough, they turn you into one of them. Zombies, you say? No. Cats. In this show, a virus borne by cats makes everyone who touches a cat turn into a cat. How long can humans go before they succumb to the urge to pet a lovable feline? Nyaight of the Living Cat is a funny and interesting show that implements all the tropes and tricks of classic horror movies - but with cats!

Necronomico and the Cosmic Horror Show

Miko Kurono, known online as “Necronomico”, spends her days making live streams with her friends Mayu Mayusaka and Kanna Kagurazaka. The lives of the three girls take a sudden change when they are introduced to the Virtual Reality game Kadath. The game turns out to be just a medium for ancient cosmic gods to interact with the human world, in a true Lovecraftian story. Mixing lighthearted comedy, unknowable horror and existential thought, Necronomico is one of the top shows of this season.

Detectives These Days Are Crazy!

Life can be harsh when you grow older. Just ask Keiichiro Nagumo, a genius detective when he was in high school, he could solve any and all mysteries. Now, at 35, he runs a failing detective agency, has bad hips and is struggling in more than one way. That is, until high school girl Mashiro Nakanishi appears at his doorstep asking to be his assistant. She is young and energetic, and often a big help in solving cases (usually by brute force). Life is not going to be the same for Nagumo!

Clevatess

13 heroes are armed with powerful weapons and tasked with destroying Clevatess, the lord of all magical beasts. What is usually the ending of a fantasy story, in this case is just the beginning. Clevatess decimates the heroes and decides to wipe out humanity, but is held back when a human baby is placed in his care. Having an infant to take care of, Clevatess’ look on humans and life in general is bound to change. Will the baby be humanity's salvation, in the end?
