Nintendo Switch 2

3 weeks ago | gamerant.com | Mark Sammut

The Nintendo Switch had a great 8-year run, but everything must eventually come to an end. Consequently, the Nintendo Switch 2 is now the new hot console on the market, one that looks set to (hopefully) maintain its predecessor's momentum. While the hardware is not too exciting an upgrade over the previous console, the platform's legacy will ultimately be defined by its library. So far, quite a few exciting upcoming Switch 2 games have been announced, and this is just the beginning.
Most OP Isekai Anime MC Of Spring 2025

1 month ago | gamerant.com | Mark Sammut

The Spring 2025 season has been enjoyable so far. While lacking those big shows that tend to drive online discourse, the lineup has most of its bases covered, offering quite a few great romances, action, comedy, slice of life, and fantasy shows. However, Spring 2025's isekai anime selection is arguably one of the weaker ones of the last few years.
Best 2020s Comedy Anime

Once in a while, everyone needs a good laugh, and anime has been tickling funny bones for decades by this point. So far, the current decade has not been an exception, with each season including at least a few shows that do not take themselves seriously and are mostly looking to make viewers giggle. While hundreds more shows will debut over the coming years, they will need to produce comedy gold if they want to stand alongside the funniest anime of the 2020s.
Best 2020s Shonen Anime

Shonen anime will always overshadow other demographics in terms of sheer volume. Just taking 2025 as an example, the year will see the release of more than 20 new shonen stories, along with sequels to some of the biggest shows of all time. Then, there are stalwarts like One Piece and Case Closed that have spent more than two decades producing constant episodes. While certainly offering quantity, shonen is also more than capable of delivering quality.

Every year, roughly two dozen isekai anime protagonists embark on otherworldly adventures. Some of them are handed god-like powers, while others have to make do with just their wits and charm. A few characters become leaders and establish kingdoms, while others are satisfied to build harems filled with girls (or, rarely, guys) who love them unconditionally.
Best Action Anime Of The 2020s

So far, so good. The 2020s are shaping up to be great for anime. Not only are Japanese shows more accessible than ever, but they are also (essentially) never-ending. As each season produces about 40 anime, roughly 800 series have released content over the last few years, a figure that will expand to about 2000 once the decade comes to an end.
Best Isekai Anime You've Probably Never Heard Of

Love or hate them, isekai anime's popularity cannot be denied. Using the current year as an example, 2025 will see the release of more than 20 new stories that cover this theme, and that number does not even take into account sequels. Isekai is deeply competitive, to the point that only a handful of series reach mainstream exposure. However, the "forgettable" seasonal shows tend to still attract quite a bit of discourse while they are airing.
