June is finally here, which means anime fans need another list of exciting series to keep them occupied for the entire month. As the exciting Spring 2026 anime season draws to a close, fans prepare for the exciting Summer lineup, which includes major sequels and some of the most anticipated debuts. While the new anime lineup is still a month away, luckily, Crunchyroll‘s library has more than enough shows for fans to explore each month. Since June is the last month of the Spring 2026 anime season, there’s not a lot of new series coming to the platform.

Regardless, it’s often more exciting to binge a series that already has multiple episodes, especially on Crunchyroll, the largest streaming service for anime fans in the world. If you’re looking for something new to binge, this list will keep you entertained in June 2026.
10) Saga of Tanya the Evil
This intense action anime is returning with a second season after making fans wait for six years.

The story will continue the journey of Tanya as she keeps rising through the ranks in the military in hopes of securing a stable life for herself.
9) Mob Psycho 100
Mob Psycho 100 is one of the most beloved Shonen series of all time, praised not only for the story and animation, but also for the satisfying ending, which isn’t that common in the Shonen demographic. It’s the kind of anime fans often find almost nothing to complain about since the story is beautifully written from the beginning to the end.
Not only that, but the ending focuses on the emotional maturity of the characters as they overcome the trials and personal struggles, especially Mob, who has learned to accept himself for who he is.
8) You and I Are Polar Opposites
There can never be enough romantic comedies for fans to watch throughout the year, especially in Shonen Jump. The anime will return with a second season in July, so now is the perfect time to rewatch the first season and jog your memory before beginning a new chapter in the main characters’ lives.
The story centers around Yuusuke Tani, who sits next to Miyu Suzuki, a popular and cheerful girl. Their interactions with each other are limited to Miyu’s random questions, toward which Yuusuke often shows a lukewarm attitude. However, before they realize it, these simple exchanges slowly develop into something more.
7) The Apothecary Diaries
The Apothecary Diaries is one of the most successful anime, manga, and novel franchises of all recent times. Thanks to its never-ending mysteries, the story gets even more intriguing as it continues. The plot focuses on Maomao, a genius apothecary with knowledge of medicine and poisons and a knack for solving mysterious cases.
She is sold to the Rear Palace as a servant after being kidnapped and is forced to work as a servant girl. While trying to keep a low profile, she eventually catches the attention of Jinshi, a high-ranking eunuch hiding major secrets about himself.
6) Link Click
Link Click is technically called a donghua, a term used for Chinese animation, and it has gained popularity over the years for being one of the best supernatural mysteries of all time. It’s returning with the first part of its Season 3 next month. Looking at the premise of the story, one would never be able to guess that it’s an unbelievably emotional story with high stakes and surprising action sequences.
The story explores the themes of time travel, where the main duo accepts the requests of their clients to enter the past through photos. However, invading someone’s past and leaving it is more difficult than the boys realized, and even one wrong move could have grave consequences.
5) Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End
This award-winning anime is all set to return with its Season 3 in October 2027 to adapt the anime’s best arc yet, where the party will encounter one of the most powerful characters in the story. The journey towards Aureole keeps getting more dangerous as Frieren and her party face new threats in the Northern plateau.
Now that the second season has already been concluded, it’s never too late to binge both seasons together before Frieren’s journey continues in the new season.
4) Natsume’s Book of Friends
Set in a countryside filled with lush forests, old shrines, dusty roads at sunset, Natsume’s Book of Friends is one of the most underrated comfort anime. The story explores the themes of making peace with your past and forming new bonds. As a supernatural fantasy centring on Yokai, the story doesn’t focus on horror but offers bittersweet encounters with these yokai and their stories about loss and gratitude.
The anime is streaming seven seasons on the platform, both in subbed and dubbed versions, while Season 8 has yet to be officially confirmed.
3) Gachiakuta
Ever since its debut in 2025, Gachiakuta has received countless praises for its worldbuilding and impressive characters. The anime was immediately renewed for a second season, which has yet to reveal its release window. The story is set in a world where the wealthy thoughtlessly throw trash away, but their waste is valuable to Rudo, who lives in the slums.
After being falsely accused of the crime of killing someone dear to him, he is cast aside and left for the dead. However, thanks to the help of Enjin and his allies, the boy gets back on his feet, hoping to escape the place beneath the pit and catch the real murderer.
2) Kaguya-Sama: Love Is War
Based on Aka Akasaka’s award-winning manga, the hilarious anime follows the war of love between the Shuchiin Academy’s student council president, Miyuki Shirogane, and the Vice-President, Kaguya Shinomiya. Even the school considers them the perfect couple, as they are always on top of their academics.
However, despite having feelings for each other, their pride keeps them from taking the first step. The story centers around their daily antics as they try to get the other side to reveal their feelings and win the battle of love.
1) Barakamon
Barakamon is the perfect comfort anime for summer as it focuses on slowing down from a hectic life and living in the moment. This heartwarming story of redemption and self-discovery is considered one of the best slice-of-life anime of all time, although the anime didn’t cover a majority of the manga.
The story takes place on a quiet island where Sei Handa, a renowned calligrapher, has recently moved after his father sent him away for hitting an elderly curator of a calligraphy exhibition. While he initially has a hard time adapting to the countryside lifestyle, it doesn’t take long for him to blend in with the cheerful locals.
