Hello everyone! This is Saori from Otaku Republic!

Today!......2025 is almost over. I feel like it was a year where I encountered quite a few different works! I feel like the anime was a bumper crop too, but......didn’t you all have a lot of opportunities to go to the cinema this year!?

[2025 Anime Movies] This Year Was Truly a Bumper Crop!
Many Hit Films That Will Redefine Japanese Film History Were Screened!
How Many 2025 Anime Movies Have You Watched?

So! Today, we’re looking back at the anime movies screened in 2025! I remember there being many huge hit Japanese anime movies after September, but it was also a year where quite a few hit works were produced in the first half of the year!

Like this, I think it was a year with quite a few new anime films and also many sequel anime films! The huge hits of Kimetsu and Chainsaw Man might stand out, but personally, I thought the Hypnosismic movie was also quite futuristic, groundbreaking, and interesting!

To put it simply, the Hypnosismic movie had a very interesting specification where the ending changed based on the votes of the audience who came to the theater that day! There were 7 endings, 48 routes leading up to them, and 16 new songs prepared, making it a wonderful movie that truly fulfilled the dream of “if I go see the movie today, the ending might be different”}! That’s amazing, isn’t it! If more movies like this were made in the future, I’d definitely go see them countless times!

Among the anime you watched in 2025, which works left an impression on you? There are many wonderful works scheduled for release in 2026, so let’s all go to the cinema and get excited!
