That mix gives Crunchyroll a spring season that feels broad in a useful way. There are plenty of recognizable anchor titles, but the lineup also leaves room for newer series and lower-key additions that could end up finding their audience once weekly word of mouth kicks in.
The seasonal handoff is also packed at the end of March. Crunchyroll lists JUJUTSU KAISEN Season 3 ended on March 26, Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End Season 2 on March 27, and TRIGUN STARGAZE on March 28, closing out a strong winter run before the spring lineup fully takes over.
