Everything coming to Netflix in the Winter 2025 anime season
Every year, Netflix ups its anime game by either adding existing shows to its library or nabbing a new Netflix exclusive. The biggest title coming in Winter 2025 on Netflix is likely to be Sakamoto Days, which has a huge following from the manga and an interesting concept – what if John Wick’s wife didn’t get killed and also he had a psychic sidekick?
The new anime coming to Netflix in Winter 2025 are:
- My Happy Marriage Season 2 – January 6
- Baban Baban Ban Vampire – January 11
- Sakamoto Days Season 1 – January 11
- Kinnikuman Perfect Origin Arc Season 2 – January 12
- Castlevania Nocturne Season 2 – January 16
There is a lot of anime coming our way in the next few months, so clear your schedule and tell your family you won’t be seeing them until April.
