Crunchyroll Anime Expo 2026: Every New Anime Announced — From Apothecary Diaries Season 3 to Overgeared, India Gets Them All!

Anime fans, it’s time to lose your minds — Crunchyroll just dropped its Anime Expo 2026 lineup and it is absolutely stacked. From long-awaited sequels to brand-new originals, here’s everything announced, what it’s about, and whether India gets it. Spoiler: Indian fans are eating well this year.

Crunchyroll Full Lineup Overview

The Big Highlights

The Apothecary Diaries Season 3 is the one everyone’s been waiting for. Maomao returns to the pleasure district after the Shi Clan rebellion — but it doesn’t stay peaceful for long. Jinshi’s ominous warning of a looming national disaster sets the stage for the most expansive season yet, stretching across the inner court, city streets, and foreign borders.

Gachiakuta Season 2 picks up where Season 1’s gritty underground survival story left off — Rudo and the Cleaners battling mutated trash monsters in the hellscape Pit while taking on the corrupt world that threw them there.

Firefly Wedding is the romantic suspense wildcard of the lineup — a contract marriage between a high-born lady and a mysterious assassin set in the Meiji era. Think tension, romance, and danger wrapped in a gorgeous historical setting.

Overgeared brings the beloved Korean manhwa to life. Grid, an unlucky low-level VR gamer, stumbles upon a legendary blacksmith class and sets out to dominate — only to discover that life as a legend comes with consequences nobody warned him about.

New Titles Worth Watching

Goodbye, Lara is a beautifully melancholic mermaid fantasy — a princess who chose love over the sea awakens 200 years later to try again. The Villager of Level 999 flips the isekai power fantasy on its head with a “weakest class” hero who quietly reached the highest level possible. Tomb Raider King is a revenge thriller with time-travel mechanics — a betrayed tomb explorer goes back 15 years armed with knowledge of the future. I Became a Legend After My 10-Year Last Stand follows a mage who survived the Demon King’s defeat only to discover the world moved on without him — now living incognito as an F-rank adventurer.

For anyone newer to the anime world, Wikipedia’s overview of anime as a medium is a great starting point for understanding why these stories resonate globally.
