with Summer 2026 anime season Coming up fast, streaming platforms like Crunchyroll, Netflix, HIDIVE, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video are starting to reveal their lineups, allowing us to make an informed choice when selecting a subscription. Each of those services has some specials for the upcoming season, including big names Ghost in the Shell and Bleach. As always, Crunchyroll's Summer 2026 anime lineup dwarfs the competition, but they all have something worth watching.
With nearly 50 series slated for Summer 2026, it can be difficult to keep track of where to watch anime. Consequently, we've put together a rundown of each platform's announced lineup. Furthermore, the article also includes a section listing shows that have yet to be announced for streaming services for North America; Hopefully, that will change in the next few weeks, but each season includes a few series that never leave Japan.
