My Top 10 Most Anticipated New Anime of Fall 2021

Summer 2021 is about to end, and the next season is about to start. Welcome to Fall 202—the most awaited season for most of us. It feels like I only started watching Summer 2021 anime yesterday, but they only have one month left. This season might not be the best, but I indeed enjoy some of its anime. Some of them might still get another season so let's wait for them in the future.

Before Fall 2021 started. I'm going to give my personal most anticipated new anime list for the next season. They are new anime, whether it's original or manga adaptation. But I'm sure they will give a fresh taste to anime nowadays. I've set my eyes on them since the announcement and decided to add them to a list where I need to check them first. In short, they are my need to watch list for that particular season. And I'll start with;

10. Sekai Saikou no Ansatsusha, Isekai Kizoku ni Tensei suru

Let's start with this generic but fresh Isekai anime. Isekai keeps innovating the plot and titles, but the story is very generic. The World's Best Assassin, Reincarnated In A Different World As An Aristocrat, is a manga series written by Rui Tsukiyo. And guess what? He's the same author of Redo of Healer. But rest assured, it's more normal Isekai than the Redo of Healer. The title is the plot itself. The best assassin in the world has been reincarnated in another world, and his new mission is to protect that world by assassinating heroes who threaten their peace.

9. Sakugan

Now let's move to an anime with a genre of more post-apocalyptic and mecha. I love post-apocalyptic, but mecha is not my thing. That's why it is just my number 9. Well, the story is interesting. Humans have been pushed to live in an underground labyrinth. Living a life in a harsh environment, their survival relies mainly on robots that dig ores. This is a beautiful adventure of a father and daughter trying to survive in a broken world with the power of family love.

8. Blue Period

School and Slice of Life genre are one of the fascinating genres in Anime. It will give you a point of view of what a school life you dreams of. But what makes Blue Period different from the most slice of life genres is the addition of Seinen. Don't be afraid because not all seinen contains adult content. For example, Kaguya-sama Love War is in the category of Seinen. This is a story of a boy who seeks different things than he used to until he discovers drawing and art. It is a wholesome anime with a simple tale using the art of the Seinen genre.

7. Takt Op. Destiny

The collaboration of the year. Madhouse and MAPPA are joining forces to do this original anime project. I've previously mentioned this anime as an upcoming anime of Studio MAPPA, and yes, it is set to air next season. For those who don't know about this. It is a post-apocalyptic anime where music can save anything. Truly exciting and something you need to look forward to.

6. Saihate no Paladin

Paladin of the End is another post-apocalyptic anime set to air in Fall 2021. Don't be surprised if there are more post-apocalyptic anime on this list because most anime next season is actually within that genre. It is fun, but primarily post-apocalyptic anime are sad anime, so be ready. Paladin of the End is a mesmerising story of a boy who's being raised by the undead. As he grows up, he realises that he's different, and that's where he started his journey to find out who he is in the cruel world.

5. Mieruko-chan

And now let's go to something different and fun. Mieruko-chan is a horror-comedy anime. It's exciting knowing this combination of genres is something unusual, and ironically, it works. It is a story of a girl who can see a ghost. But even though she is terrified of monsters, she will do her best not to freak out and pretend not to see them. It is a fun and scary anime that will complete your last season of the year.

4. Deep Insanity: The Lost Child

And, of course, my dark horse for the next season. It is an original anime, but the game inspires it with the same title. The silver link, the animation studio that handles this project, is an average studio. But based on the trailer, I think they made a massive leap in their quality. Let's hope that the anime will be well made as to the trailer. It is another post-apocalyptic anime set in Antarctica where a substantial underground asylum was found. It is inhabited by strange creatures but also a place full of wealth and some essential resources. What could it be? and what kind of world awaits them at the bottom?

3. Platinum End

This is unquestionable, especially after knowing it has the same author of Death Note. Even the story and art style is similar. But I like how they twist everything in the story, but the similarity to Death Note is still there. Instead of a dark tale about grim reapers, they will use angels instead. Their goal is to make a human God by doing a battle royale and kill each other. It sounds similar to Mirai Nikki, but who knows. It is caused by a great author anyway, so let's wait for now

2. Komi-san wa, Comyushou desu

The most requested anime is finally here. People are going crazy about the manga. It's understandable because the story is cute. Not to mention Komi is so adorable. So I understand why they are crazy about this. Komi is a girl who has a hard time communicating even though she is so beautiful. But one day, she met Hitohito Tadano, and he promised to help Komi achieve one hundred friends. It will be fun and adorable, so watch out for this anime.

1. Chainsaw Man

With all the hype and popularity, it's normal for this anime to Top this list. MAPPA, with its breathtaking animations, is on a roll once more. Added with super hype and lit trailer, it's just overkill. This will be at least as popular as Jujutsu Kaisen and probably will be even more. Story of a boy who lives in life under the debt of his father from the Yakuza. While under the mission set by the Yakuza to kill him, an unpredicted event happened after a devil merges his body and grant him superpowers. With his new profound powers, what could be the future awaits him.

I'm so excited for Fall 2021. There are lots of good ones coming. It's a little bit sad because most of Summer 2021 anime will end, but who cares (lol)? Next season is much better. Let's find about them soon, and let's choose which is the best among them.
