Best Spring 2024 Anime, Ranked

KonoSuba, Demon Slayer, Kaiju No. 8, Laid-Back Camp, and My Hero Academia will all be competing to determine the best anime of the Spring 2024 season.

Highlights

  • The Spring 2024 anime lineup is full of sequels and new shows with potential hits in the making.
  • Criteria for the rankings include only Spring 2024 new anime and exclude some formats like ONAs and movies.
  • Shows like “Train to the End of the World” and “Wind Breaker” bring creativity and action to the season.

The Spring 2024 anime season is underway, and plenty of shows are vying to leave their mark on the industry. As always, the lineup includes sequels and new properties, with the former hogging most of the attention. Still, there are more than a few newcomers that have the potential to become hits, potentially spawning their own sequels later down the line.

Spring 2024 covers most of the popular genres and demographics, even if the selection is not split evenly. Regardless of personal preferences, most fans should be able to find a story that suits their needs. However, if someone is not sure what to start with, they can check out the following recommendations that represent the best Spring 2024 anime.

This article will be updated every week to ensure that the rankings reflect the season’s output. The cutoff date for the current Spring 2024 anime is April 5, 2024.

Here are a few more criteria:

  • Only anime that started in Spring 2024 will be considered. Therefore, no Winter 2024 continuations or long-running shows like One Piece.
  • No ONAs, OVAs, movies, or Netflix specials.
  • While listed as a reference, MyAnimeList scores are just one piece of the equation and not the ranking’s defining criteria.

One of the more unusual debuts of Spring 2024, Train to the End of the World envisions a version of Japan that has been turned upside down by the introduction of 7G. The system’s launch turned everyone over 18 into animals, and while they have retained their consciousness for now, their humanity seems to be gradually fading away. A group of girls who only know their small town’s strange circumstances decide to go on a trip when they see one of their friends in another city’s newspaper. Therefore, they jump onto a train and head out into the post-apocalyptic unknown.

Train to the End of the World got off to a charming and creative start, one that raised questions that could lead to fun answers. Boasting a lighthearted tone while still taking its premise seriously, EMT Squared’s anime has set the stage for a fresh adventure that could deliver thrills, laughs, and suspense. Hopefully, the show delivers on its promise.

Sometimes, simplicity is the best policy. Wind Breaker follows Haruka Sakura, an angry teenager who has always been an outcast through no fault of his own. Finding solace in violence, Haruka joins Makochi’s notorious Furin High School in the hopes of facing off against strong fighters. However, he quickly learns that the town and school have changed considerably in recent years thanks to Furin’s Bofurin gang working to keep the streets safe. While battles are still common, Haruka might have to accept that he cannot be an island.

Wind Breaker has a shonen-standard protagonist and a delinquent-fueled setting that is hardly breaking new ground for action anime. However, tropes are inescapable for a reason: when done right, they work. Haruka is easy enough to like, and he is surrounded by characters who help balance out his angry outbursts. Also, CloverWork’s animation is great, both in the quiet moments and the well-choreographed fight sequences.

Isekai tends to attract hate for its overreliance on basic power fantasies. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime fits that descriptor like a glove, but it also serves as a prime example of this type of story’s appeal when executed to near perfection. Rimuru’s journey to bring peace to monster-kind is predominantly defined by a carefree tone that only sporadically dips into tense situations. Even though season 2 had some shocking moments, things largely worked out for the Jura Tempest Federation.

Although this is how the True Dragons rank amongst themselves, they hold the top spot in That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime.

Season 3 is set to maintain this course of balancing light political intrigue with well-animated action, slice of life shenanigans, and the ever-expanding hero worship revolving around Rimuru. Like in the previous cours, the protagonist acts as a glue that brings together a wide assortment of more interesting and charismatic characters, be it Diablo or the Demon Lords.

Revisiting a classic is risky. Not only is Isuna Hasekura’s Spice and Wolf light novel an all-time fantasy great, but the 2008 anime is also excellent. Consequently, Spice and Wolf: Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf has to live up to the source material’s brilliance and, arguably, surpass a beloved adaptation. Passione must bring its A-game.

These romance light novels concluded in 2023, leaving avid fans of the genre with some truly heartfelt narratives.

While still early days, the studio might just be able to pull off this difficult feat. Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf seems to have nailed Holo and Kraft Lawrence’s personalities, with both characters instantly coming across as fleshed-out individuals with long histories that drive their presents and futures. More importantly, they are awesome together.

Slice of life stories have become oddly rare in this day and age. Sure, most seasons include one or two SOL series, but that is usually it. Fortunately, Spring 2024 contains one of the genre’s standout names, with Laid-Back Camp airing its third season. Relaxing and freeing, this show eases the mind and feeds the soul, all the while showing viewers a few of Japan’s most gorgeous vistas.

As always, the Outdoors Activities Club’s members are looking ahead to their next camping trip, although they are still coming up with ideas. In the meantime, Rin heads on solo expeditions while reminiscing about her grandpa, the person who sparked her love for camping. Sweet, funny, and peaceful, Laid-Back Camp just has a way of improving even the most stressful of days.
