Full June 2026 Anime Lineup

The Shows, Briefly Explained

🎯 Assassination Classroom Season 2 — June 1

Season 2 of Assassination Classroom raises the stakes as the students of Class 3-E return from summer vacation, still tasked with assassinating Koro-sensei before graduation. This time, they must also contend with Gakuhou Asano, the school’s ruthless principal, who is actively trying to thwart them. Meanwhile, hostility begins brewing within Class 3-E itself, with Nagisa Shiota at the centre of a growing conflict among his classmates, all desperate to claim the bounty on Koro-sensei for themselves. Emotional, action-packed, and absolutely unmissable.

🎮 Shangri-La Frontier Season 2 — June 1

Season 2 continues following Rakurou “Sunraku” Hizutome’s adventures in the virtual reality game Shangri-La Frontier, whose playstyle has taken the game by storm. After defeating two of the seven “unbeatable monsters”, he sets out on an adventure with his leporine guide Emul to find an ancient workshop and acquire a magic operation unit. Think gaming, boss battles, and pure adrenaline — this is isekai done right.

💥 My Hero Academia Season 6 — June 1

My Hero Academia Season 6 brings the epic “Paranormal Liberation War” directly to Netflix — widely regarded as the most intense, emotionally devastating arc in the entire series. If you haven’t seen it yet, prepare yourself.

🔪 Kill Blue — Weekly, Finale June 27

This is the hidden gem of the month. Kill Blue follows Juuzou Oogami, a legendary hitman who has never failed an assignment. After wiping out a powerful organisation, he is stung by a mysterious wasp and wakes up as a 13-year-old boy. His boss immediately gives him a new order: infiltrate a middle school in that body. Despite the absurd premise, the show consistently balances tone — one moment delivering comedic school-life humour, the next shifting to genuinely dangerous action. One of 2026’s most surprisingly good anime.

🚂 Milky☆Subway: The Galactic Limited Express — June 1

An absurd, fast-paced sci-fi comedy centred on an intergalactic train ride, following a bizarre cast including a human salaryman and alien passengers dealing with the chaotic misadventures of cosmic public transit. It balances surreal humour with surprisingly heartfelt character interactions. Think Spirited Away meets Space Dandy.

⚓ One Piece: Whole Cake Island Batches 6 & 7 — June 1

One of the most hyped additions of the month, bringing more of the critically acclaimed Whole Cake Island arc to Netflix. Luffy vs Big Mom energy is very much still in full effect here. !
