The Best Fall 2025 Anime Episodes For November 24-30 According to IMDB (#1 Isn’t One Piece or My Hero Academia)

As the fall 2025 anime season winds down, it’s clear it’s been a strong one. Both returning favorites like My Hero Academia and One Piece continued to deliver excellent episodes, and several new adaptations really stood out. There was truly something for every anime fan this season.

Now that most of the season has aired, we’re getting a clear picture of which TV shows are hitting the mark with viewers and which ones are losing steam. Last week, November 24th to 30th, featured some particularly strong episodes. Here’s a rundown of the highest-rated shows from that week, according to IMDb, with a few potentially unexpected entries.

Yano-kun’s Ordinary Days – My Heart Is…

2025 has brought us a lot of good romance anime, and even though it’s easy to miss, Yano-kun’s Ordinary Days could be one of the year’s best. The story centers around Yano, a clumsy and easily injured boy. When he switches classes and meets the class president, Kiyoko, things start looking up for him.

Episode 9 features Yano and Yoshida studying together at Yoshida’s home, and it’s packed with sweet and meaningful interactions that really move their relationship forward. It’s been a fan favorite so far, and continues the show’s recent run of strong episodes.

Tojima Wants to Be a Kamen Rider – Show Me Your Rider

I’ve been watching Tojima Wants to Be a Kamen Rider, and it’s really flown under the radar this season. It’s a spin-off of the long-running Kamen Rider series, and it’s about a guy named Tanzaburo Tojima who always wanted to be a Kamen Rider when he was a kid. Now he’s grown up and is almost ready to give up on that dream, but then a group pretending to be the villainous Shocker organization shows up, and suddenly he’s pulled back into the action.

The tournament from episode eight has begun, and Tojima and his friends are competing to become the challenger for the Spider Man monster. The episode is full of highlights, especially thanks to standout performances from Mitsuba and Ichiyo.

Let This Grieving Soul Retire – The Nine-Tailed Fox Wants to Scheme in the Shadows

I’m so excited about the return of Let This Grieving Soul Retire! It’s a really enjoyable fantasy series that quickly gained a dedicated following when it first came out in Fall 2024. And the best part? Part 2 just dropped, and everyone who loves the show is absolutely raving about it!

Currently, episode 22, titled “The Nine-Tailed Fox Wants to Scheme in the Shadows,” has the highest rating on IMDb. However, it’s only been rated by 7 users, so the score might change as more people submit their reviews.

This Monster Wants to Eat Me – Scorched Prayer

The anime series This Monster Wants to Eat Me is a standout show of the fall 2025 season. It follows Hinako, who has lost the desire to live after a family tragedy. Her life takes a strange turn when she meets Shiori, a mermaid with a peculiar appetite. Shiori, along with other monsters, is attracted to Hinako’s blood, and Hinako makes a deal: Shiori will protect her until she’s ‘at her most delicious,’ at which point Shiori will fulfill her promise to eat Hinako and end her pain.

Episode 9 offers a compelling conversation between Shiori and Miko, revealing their individual viewpoints and deepening our understanding of their characters. A major discovery is also made that will likely have a significant impact on the relationship between Hinako and Shiori as the story progresses, making it something to watch for in upcoming episodes.

Dusk Beyond the End of the World – Overlooking the Expanse of Days Past

Dusk Beyond the End of the World is a standout series this fall. It begins with Akira protecting his sister, Towasa, from an attack, which leads to him being frozen for 200 years. When he wakes up, he finds himself in a strange new world controlled by a secretive group called OWEL. Rescued by an android named Yugure, Akira begins a quest to find Towasa, believing she’s still alive.

Even though the series as a whole hasn’t received amazing reviews, each episode of Dusk Beyond the End of the World is consistently well-received. It’s a bold and unique project worth watching, especially since the recent episode revealed some surprising twists that promise a compelling finale.

Gachiakuta – Race Against Time

While popular anime like My Hero Academia and One Piece are currently leading the way, Gachiakuta is quickly gaining attention and could become the next breakout hit. The anime adaptation, which fans have been eagerly waiting for, premiered this summer and is continuing to build momentum as we head into fall.

The story centers around Rudo, an outcast wrongly accused of his father’s murder and banished as a result. He now journeys through a dangerous land called the “Pit” seeking revenge. While it’s a newer series, Gachiakuta is quickly proving it has the potential to become a long-lasting favorite.

Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray – The Answer

The Umamusume series has become incredibly popular recently. Thanks to a successful game and several manga and anime adaptations, it continues to grow in popularity.

It’s no surprise that fans are loving the Cinderella Gray anime, given how popular the series is. The latest episode, number 20, starts with a surprising reveal from Tamamo Cross that hints at exciting developments to come as the season progresses.

My Hero Academia Final Season – Epilogue, The Hellish Todoroki Family: Final

The most recent season of My Hero Academia has truly delivered for fans. It’s a fantastic adaptation of the manga, featuring exciting battles, stunning animation, and impressive acting from the voice cast.

It’s easy to understand why this series is so popular – every episode this season has earned a rating of 9.1 or higher! Even though the show is getting close to the end of the original story, it’s still incredibly engaging. It’s going to be tough to see it finish, especially with how strong the recent episodes have been.

One Piece – Her and Her Father’s Dream! Bonney’s Free Future

The One Piece anime is gearing up to begin the long-awaited Elbaf Arc. The recent episodes have been fantastic, and are doing a great job of adapting the exciting Egghead Arc.

In episode 1151, Bonney transforms and joins forces with Luffy to try and evacuate the Elders from Egghead. Beyond the exciting fight scenes, viewers also spotted the return of one of the very first voice actors from the series, who played a brief but crucial character.

Gnosia – Guard Duty

Gnosia, a new series based on a popular 2019 game, has become a surprising hit this fall. The story centers around Yuri, who finds herself on a spaceship with no memory of who she is. Things quickly become dangerous when she discovers that one of the crew members is a ‘Gnosia’ – someone infected and driven to eliminate the others. When attempts to identify the Gnosia through voting fail, Yuri is repeatedly sent back to the beginning. Trapped in a never-ending time loop where nothing stays the same, she must solve the mystery to break free.

Gnoisia starts with a somewhat familiar idea, but the anime has been steadily gaining popularity. It has the potential to be one of the standout shows of the fall 2025 season.
