The Absolute Best Anime You Should Stream in April 2023

Yes, Demon Slayer is here, but there are some other titles worth watching too.

After watching that Attack on Titan special, you may be wondering what’s next for the spring anime season.

If you spread your attention around, you’ll be able to catch comedies, dramas or romantic series on different platforms — and still have time to read manga.

Here’s a look at what to stream this month on Crunchyroll, Netflix and other streaming services.
