2025 is shaping up to be another great year for anime, with every season containing a plethora of huge shows that will dominate online discussions for a few months. In terms of 2025 shonen anime, sequels like Dandadan, Kaiju No. 8, My Hero Academia, Fire Force, and Spy x Family are just a few of the returning names that will certainly be massive (and, hopefully, great).

While known properties tend to hog the limelight, the year is not lacking in noteworthy newcomers either. For the most part, new shonen 2025 anime outnumber sequels in most seasons, and there is always the chance that the demographic's next success story is right around the corner. Let's highlight all the upcoming shonen anime, along with the ones that have already completed their 2025 runs.

A few things to keep in mind:

  • "New" anime are the focus, but sequels are mentioned in a separate section. For now, Winter and Spring 2025 anime have been prioritized.
  • Only 2025 anime based on shonen manga will be included, so not just shows that teenage boys might enjoy.
  • The data will be revised periodically to ensure the information is up-to-date.

A rare shonen boys love anime, Babanbabanban Vampire is, admittedly, primarily a comedy and not a romance. Ranmaru, a vampire, has been living with the Tatsuno family for years, secretly waiting for the day when Rihito turns 18. At that point, the vamp will take a long-awaited bite. However, Ranmaru only feasts on virgins, a requirement that comes under jeopardy when Rihitio develops a crush on a girl. While not for everyone, Babanbabanban Vampire can be an entertaining dark comedy.

Arguably the weakest Winter 2025 shonen anime, Bogus Skill is set in a fantasy world where people eat a fruit to acquire an ability, which will then dictate their profession and prospects. Light seems to pull the short straw when he picks up the Fruitmaster skill that allows him to quickly grow fruit; however, it also lets him consume multiple superpowered Fruits, so he can amass an assortment of skills. While the concept isn't that bad, the anime is pretty forgettable.

A shonen isekai harem, The Daily Life of a Middle-Aged Online Shopper in Another World surprisingly features an adult protagonist, something that is rare for the demographic and genres. Ken'ichi starts a new life in a fantasy world, and his cool ability is that he can buy nearly anything through a magical store. Before he knows it, Ken'ichi starts to attract interest from women, developing something of a makeshift family. Although mostly just for harem and isekai fans, this is a perfectly watchable show.

A light novel that was adapted into a shonen manga, I May Be a Guild Receptionist, But I'll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time is carried entirely by its main character, Alina Clover. All she wants to do is work a normal 9-5 shift as a receptionist at an adventurers' guild, but she has to constantly put in overtime as the parties cannot seem to clear a dungeon on time. Consequently, she decides to use her overpowered hammer to demolish bosses herself, all in the hopes of keeping the paperwork to a minimum. Considering its premise, I May Be a Guild Receptionist takes itself surprisingly seriously, particularly during the second half of the Winter 2025 season. That said, it is a decent action shonen anime with a likable protagonist.

Consequently, he decides to just develop the concept himself, practicing to the point that he becomes a powerful magic user. For the most part, Magic Maker focuses on Shion's experiments to improve his magic, and these sequences are quite interesting.

Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms is an OK shonen comedy with hints of romance, and season 2 has already been confirmed.

Unquestionably the most hyped new shonen anime of Winter 2025, Sakamoto Days ended up being pretty good, even if it arguably struggled to live up to the quality of the source material. A deadly and legendary assassin, Sakamoto retired after falling in love, and he now runs a convenience store with his family. However, peaceful days are rare, as he finds himself targeted for assassination. Before long, he inadvertently recruits a few powerful allies who are looking for a place to call home. While far from flawless, Sakamoto Days is a fun battle shonen with plenty of hilarious humor.

The title pretty much explains the hook, which lends itself perfectly to odd-couple comedy territory. Accidentally running away from her ninja clan, Satoko is in deep waters, so she clings to anybody willing to help. That person ends up being the reluctant Konoha, an assassin who is extremely proficient at killing. Together they make an awkward but deadly duo.

This assumption is tested when Rion enters the picture, someone who has a past and potentially a romantic present with Yu. Himari wants to step aside to let them flourish, but that might be easier said than done.

Please Put Them On, Takamine-san is an exception, with the anime falling squarely into ecchi territory. Koushi learns that his school's perfect student council president maintains her image by using a special power that lets her reverse time. The catch? She needs to remove a piece of underwear to activate it. When her secret is revealed, Takane blackmails Koushi into assisting her, starting a peculiar relationship.

To his mild frustration, Morihito becomes Nico's familiar, a role that requires him to protect the witch from others and, mostly, herself. Hilarity ensues.

The eponymous samurai is a young kid who has spent his life battling gorillas in the jungle, training that might not have prepared him for city life. With fantastic animation, great comedy, and a fast-paced story with a strong sense of adventure, Yaiba is a timeless delight that should be checked out by battle shonen fans.

These types of releases tend to have inconsistent Western debuts, so there is no guarantee that all of them will be available in 2025.
