Fall 2026 brings a lineup of comedy anime featuring a wide variety of humor. From reboots of classic titles to a student council full of quirky characters, and even a psychic cop who likes to cheat.
8. Uncle’s Obsession with Cute Things
Uncle’s Obsession with Cute Things (Ojisan wa Kawaii Mono ga Osuki.) Follow Mitsutaka Oji, a neat, polite office manager who is respected by his coworkers. Behind that image, Mitsutaka has a secret hobby. He really loves cute things, especially the mascot character Pug Taro.
Mitsutaka goes to great lengths to hide this hobby because he feels it doesn’t fit his image. That secret begins to unravel when he crosses paths with Wataru Naruto, a rival from the neighboring division; Kenta Kawai, his first fellow hobbyist; and Masumi Nii, his niece who’s staying at his house. The humor in this anime stems from minor misunderstandings and the warm camaraderie among these grown men.
7. The Seven Knights of the Marronnier Kingdom
The Seven Knights of the Marronnier Kingdom (Marronnier Oukoku no Shichinin no Kishi) Set in the Marronnier Kingdom, a land located in the center of the continent that comprises eight kingdoms. The kingdom’s general, Baribara, has seven sons. Each son possesses a special talent and leads his own army of knights.
These seven siblings share a common dream: to save a princess one day. They then set out as ambassadors of friendship to seven neighboring kingdoms. The premise of this journey sets the stage for both sibling comedy and a lighthearted fantasy adventure.
6. Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle, Part 2
Chitose Is in the Ramune Bottle Part 2 (Chitose-kun wa Ramune Bin no Naka 2nd Cour) Continuing the story of Saku Chitose from Part 1. Saku is a popular high school student known for her self-confidence. In Part 2, she reconnects with her childhood friends after years of emotional distance between them.
Compared to the other titles on this list, Part 2 has a more emotional tone. The humor comes from the sharp dialogue between the characters, while the drama of their relationships takes center stage. If you’ve watched Part 1, you’ll see how Saku’s relationships with those around him have evolved.
5. Super Psychic Policeman Chojo
Super Psychic Policeman Chojo (Choujun! Choujou-senpai) Follow Meguru Chojo, a police officer with immense psychic powers. The problem is, Chojo doesn’t use those powers to uphold the law. Instead, he uses them to lie, cheat, and seek personal gain.
Chojo is now stationed at an old police station, and the local residents don’t like him. He works alongside a rookie named Nao Ippongi, who has to put up with his senior’s antics every day. This duo turns police work into a series of chaotic mishaps, resulting in comedy that leans toward slapstick and the absurd.
4. Sgt. Frog☆
Sgt. Frog☆ (Keroro Gunsou☆) is a complete reboot of the long-running sci-fi comedy franchise. The story continues to center on Keroro, a frog-like alien who came to Earth on an invasion mission. Instead of conquering the planet, Keroro ends up living among humans and getting caught up in their daily lives.
The reboot makes this anime accessible to new viewers. You don’t need to have watched the original series to understand the story. For longtime fans, this version offers a chance to see familiar characters portrayed in a new light.
3. Even the Student Council Has Its Flaws!
Even the Student Council Has Its Flaws! (Seitokai ni mo Ana wa Aru!) Following Mizunoe Ume, a student who joined the student council for practical reasons. She wanted to avoid repeating a grade. In her view, this position was a shortcut to saving her academic standing.
Those plans changed when Mizunoe met the other student council members. Each member has their own quirks—from the slow-witted to the scary to the secretly perverted. Though they can be a handful, they’re also cute and easy to like, making the group’s dynamics the main source of humor.
2. Ranma 1/2 Season 3
Ranma 1/2 Season 3 continues the modern reboot of Rumiko Takahashi’s classic martial arts comedy. The story remains centered on Ranma Saotome, a martial artist who turns into a girl when he comes into contact with cold water. Much of the conflict and humor revolves around the Tendo family’s dojo.
Season 3 continues to rely on the signature Ranma 1/2 formula: gender swaps, martial arts duels, and the complicated relationship between Ranma and Akane Tendo. If you’ve watched Seasons 1 and 2, you can jump right into the story. New viewers should start with Season 1 first.
1. The World’s Strongest Witch
The World’s Strongest Witch (Sekai Saikyou no Majo, Hajimemashita) It tells the story of Lorna, a girl who was given a skill that was considered useless. Her family was ashamed of her and kicked her out of the house. Without money or food, Lorna’s life hit rock bottom.
The situation changes when Lorna realizes that her skill, “Internet,” is actually ranked SSS. Through this skill, Lorna can search for any information and use it to obtain high-value items and rare equipment. The humor arises from the clash between the fantasy world and internet culture, including when Lorna is confused by terms like “lmfao.”.
