About

Welcome to AnimeNextSeason, a free website, established 6 years ago, where you can find the latest information on Japanese animation and related content, including anime news, manga updates, light novel insights, reviews, rankings, and more for anime fans.

Whether you’re looking for ranking lists, cool merch info, or the latest news, we’ve got everything you need, no clickbait, no outdated content. Just the latest and greatest on the shows we binge and the manga and light novels we all want to read (but never seem to).

Tired of wading through rumors or overhyped fluff? Stick around. I’m all about keeping it real for the anime fam.

Why I Started AnimeNextSeason

Let’s be real, Google is a mess these days. Try searching for updates on an anime sequel, and you’ll end up on some random sports site or even a furniture blog pretending to know what they’re talking about. It’s obvious they’re churning out countless soulless AI-generated posts just to game the system.

And honestly? It’s working, because Google doesn’t seem to care. That’s just the state of things right now. Don’t believe me? Just Google Accel World Season 2.

Amazon ranks #2, claiming they have it for streaming, but here’s the catch: it doesn’t even exist. It’s been like this for two years. I’ve reported it multiple times, and guess what? It’s still there.

Accel-World-Season-2-Fake

That’s when I had an idea back in 2018. Why not create something real, made by an actual fan who actually watches the anime and reads the manga? Anime fans deserve a site with honest answers, genuine community insights, and no AI junk. Plus, I love sharing my opinions, and if someone disagrees? Even better! The comments section is wide open, lol.

And that’s how AnimeNextSeason was born. Let’s be clear, this site is a one-person operation: just me, and it’s staying that way.

My goal? To create fun-to-read articles, share my thoughts, give real updates, and highlight the anime and manga/light novel news that actually matters. That’s it.

About the Author/Owner

Hey, I’m Jan Varga. I’ve been grinding in the gacha game scene for the last 5 years, yeah, it hits the wallet hard, but when games like Genshin Impact, Wuthering Waves, and Honkai: Star Rail are this good, who can resist?

I’m rocking max Adventure Rank in Genshin, almost 74 UE in Wuthering Waves, Trailblaze Level 70 in Star Rail, and just picked up Zenless Zone Zero. I also dip into Nikke and a few other gacha games when I’ve got the time.

I’ve been watching anime for over 20 years and have finished over 1,000 series. Started with Gundam Seed and Evangelion back in 2002 and have kept up with nearly everything since. Check out my MyAnimeList, though it’s kinda outdated, one day I’ll update it.

MaskaThor-Anime-Watched

Back in 2012, I started wondering if Accel World would ever get a season 2. That led me down a rabbit hole, digging into staff, studio, sales, and news. That’s when I realized I loved writing about anime, and here we are, this website is my passion for everything anime-related.
