Following Black Clover's major announcements, Daemons of the Shadow Realm is being produced into an anime. Based on the manga of the same name created by Hiromu Arakawa (Fullmetal Alchemist), the anime will be directed by Masahiro Ando (Sword of the Stranger), which was revealed in the new teaser trailer shown during the panel and described the series as 'an otherworldly fantasy where mystery and the uncanny intertwine.'
Adding to the big reveals, Yusuke Kobayashi (Senku Ishigami in Dr. STONE), the lead Japanese voice actor in Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-, made an appearance to officially confirm that Season 4 will be exclusively streaming on Crunchyroll in 2026. Produced by studio WHITE FOX (Steins;Gate) and Masahiro Shinohara returning as director after Season 3, a teaser trailer was shown to panel attendees that featured characters Natsuki Subaru (Yusuke Kobayashi) and Emilia (voiced by Rie Takahashi, Ai Hoshino in [OSHI NO KO]) arriving in a Western-like saloon to order some milk.
Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation fans will be delighted to hear that the third season will premiere on Crunchyroll in 2026. The almost two-minute teaser gave a more than welcome look at the gorgeous animation from Studio Bind, the action and adventure to come, as well as the return of a fan-favorite character, Eris. This was a fantastic update following the emotional whirlwind of events the series last left off on.

Olivia Rodrigo has recently been spotted in classic, Nike Cortez sneakers in the brand's signature tone from the '70s, worn simply with a white tank and flared pants, while Hailey Bieber couldn't resist a deep crimson version in suede from Miu Miu, pairing them with a longljne leather jacket and jeans, a no-brainer transitional outfit, especially as we head into the cooler months. Using these effortless styling ideas, choose from our list of favorites—including more heritage essentials from Vans and Reebok, plus designer riffs from Dries Van Noten, Maison Margiela, and Prada.
