While Winter 23 may not be a season to remember given all the delays, Spring 23 is shaping up to be a big one for anime fans. As a treat for those yet to catch up on the big upcoming shows, Crunchyroll announced that previous seasons of Dr. Stone and other Spring 23 anime are now free to watch.

Specifically, Crunchyroll revealed that earlier seasons of seven anime are now available for free on the platform.

However, they aren’t free for good as this special promo will only be available until the end of April.

Fans of battle shonen titles may not have had many exciting shows to watch in the previous season, but Spring 23 is aiming to rectify that.

After all, lots of hyped new seasons for hit shonen anime will air beginning this April.

One of the biggest highlights of the upcoming season is no doubt Demon Slayer: Swordsmith Village Arc.

Given the popularity of the Mugen Train movie and last year’s Entertainment District Arc, there’s no doubt that this will be spring’s biggest show.

Sadly, Demon Slayer’s previous seasons aren’t part of Crunchyroll’s promotion. Though Dr. Stone is part of it. And not only will the first two seasons be available, but the special episode RYUSUI is also free.

While many anticipated Spring 23 series will be streamed on Crunchyroll, some shows will be available instead on other streaming platforms. One of these is Oshi no Ko which will be released on HIDIVE.
