Crunchyroll posted the Fall 2026 calendar on Tuesday. Black Clover Season 2, The Apothecary Diaries Season 3, and a new Magic Knight Rayearth series are a few of the names that will eat the first two weeks of October.
The season actually starts late September (this month). A Wild Last Boss Appeared! Season 2 lands September 26. Overgeared and As a Reincarnated Aristocrat, I'll Use My Appraisal Skill to Rise in the World Season 3 follow on September 27. Overgeared is the J.C.Staff game-world blacksmith show. Crunchyroll listed a long dub stack for it, including English.
October 2 brings The Apothecary Diaries Season 3 gets English dub and a wide set of other dubs. October 3 is the crowded Saturday. Pierrot's Black Clover Season 2 opens that day with English in the dub packet. Same date: A Tale of the Secret Saint, Magical Explorer, Romelia War Chronicle, VERTEX FORCE, and #I'm Looking For a Zombie.
October 4 adds Reborn as a Space Mercenary: I Woke Up Piloting the Strongest Starship!, Aoashi Season 2, HOTEL INHUMANS Season 2, Uncle's Obsession with Cute Things, and Even Though I’m a Super Timid Noble Girl, I Accepted the Bet From My Cunning Fiancé. Space Mercenary already had an October 4 Japanese start in earlier reporting. Crunchyroll now has it on the same calendar with English, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German, and French listed.
October 5 is the small romance pair. Hello, I Am a Witch and My Crush Wants Me to Make a Love Potion! and So What's Wrong with Getting Reborn as a Goblin? The witch show already locked October 5 in Japan with Centimillimental on the opening. Crunchyroll's fall list only tags Hindi in the dub column for that title. Treat other languages as later.
October 7 is the other stacked night. Magic Knight Rayearth, Sasaki and Peeps Season 2, The World's Strongest Witch, The Detective Is Already Dead Season 2, and A Returner's Magic Should Be Special Season 2. Rayearth is the CLAMP revival a lot of older fans have been waiting on. English, German, French, Castilian Spanish, and Italian are on Crunchyroll's dub line for it.
Firefly Wedding is October 9 with a large dub list. The Iceblade Sorcerer Shall Rule the World II is October 8. PSYREN is on the board as coming soon, with English in the later-date pile. Two non-Japanese series sit in mid-October: Paw and Palaces, a Chinese animated show, on the 10th, and Dreamland, a French series, on the 16th.
Holdovers from summer stay on the app: Red River, The Exiled Heavy Knight Knows How to Game the System, Please Excuse My Younger Brothers, Case Closed, and Star Detective Precure!.
Crunchyroll's own news post framed the English dubs as a separate list and said cast sheets and exact dub start times come later. Broadcast times on the Japanese side were still TBA for several titles. Schedules move. The date grid is the part that is firm enough to build a watchlist.
This is a season of sequels with a few new hooks. Black Clover's return is the shonen engine. Apothecary Diaries is the prestige court show. Rayearth is the 90s name getting a modern slot. Overgeared and the isekai pile fill the Sunday-and-Saturday hours the way they always do. PSYREN sitting in coming soon is the wild card if the date firms up before October is over.
