Crunchyroll Free With Ads Anime List Updated for Halloween

Every year in honor of Halloween, Crunchyroll updates the number of available free with ads anime series available to watch, and once again for 2024 there are 20 ad-supported shows for anyone without a subscription to see. Some of the most notable titles include Attack on Titan, Chainsaw Man, Damganronpa: The Animation, and Devil May Cry anime adaptations this year. All of them will only be available between October 1-31, 2024.

One of the newest anime series in the list this year is Chainsaw Man. There’s still no word on a second season yet that continues to adapt the Public Safety Arc. The next feature will be the Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc. However, we could learn more about things to come for the series in December 2024 at Jump Festa 2025. The manga and anime is set to be a part of the event and at Jump Super Stage Red alongside Jujutsu Kaisen, One Piece, and Spy x Family. 

However, it isn’t the only newer series to appear. The Case Study of Vanitas anime is only slightly older than Chainsaw Man. It began airing in 2021, then finished in 2022. We also have Hell’s Paradise, which started its run in 2023. However, both The Case Study of Vanitas and Hell’s Paradise were also part of the ad-supported Crunchyroll anime for Halloween 2023.

Here’s the full list of all Halloween 2024 Crunchyroll anime series we can watch free with ads and without a subscription.

• Angels of Death
• Another
• Attack on Titan
• Berserk
• Blood Blockade Battlefront

The Crunchyroll free with ads anime series available for Halloween 2024 can be viewed between October 1-31, 2024, though all of the ad-supported shows are available via the subscription-based catalog as well.
