March 2026 is right around the corner, which means it’s time to add new anime series to your watchlist. The year kicks off with an exciting Winter 2026 anime lineup, which is still ongoing. Most of these series, including Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 and Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End Season 2, will conclude in the final week of March or in the first week of April. While it’s always fun to keep up with the weekly episodes, if you’re one of those who loves binging, then you might want to look for other options instead of the new lineup.
