Autumn 2026 anime: 73 series in October, with many sequels including season 3 of “The Apothecary Diaries”

D’après la liste des anime d’automne lancés en octobre, 73 séries (nouveautés et suites) sont au programme.

Être in the present is est for a singular subject and sont for a plural one. It describes nature, state or place (“is”, “is located”). If what follows (the attribute) is a noun, adjective or prepositional phrase, it is not a passive. If a past participle follows, it is a passive (est annoncé). Headlines and summaries often use the present to describe the current situation.

Les chiffres viennent des organismes ou médias cités ; JAPANITIES ne les a pas vérifiés.

The passé composé is the most common past tense, used for “did” and “has done” — actions completed in the past. It is formed with the auxiliary avoir (a / ont…) in the present + a past participle. Past participles of -er verbs end in -é (annoncer → annoncé); learn the irregular ones (faire → fait, prendre → pris, voir → vu). In the negative, ne … pas wraps the auxiliary (n’a pas annoncé). In the news it reports facts that have already happened, such as “announced” or “voted”.

La saison 3 de « Kusuriya no hitorigoto » est diffusée depuis le 2 octobre sur le réseau Nippon TV.

The passive means “is done” or “is being done”. It is formed with être + past participle, which agrees with the subject in gender and number (la mesure est adoptée / les mesures sont adoptées). The agent is introduced by par (or de). In the news it is common when the event, rather than the actor, is the focus (est prévu / est annoncé / est connu).

The imperative expresses commands, requests and advice. It has no subject: the sentence starts with the verb (Consultez les informations.). The vous form ends in -ez, nous in -ons (Restons prudents.), and tu in -e for -er verbs (Consulte). It is very common in notices and warnings (Vérifiez, Consultez, Restez informé).

Les suites comme la saison 3 de « Kusuriya no hitorigoto » ou « Black Clover » saison 2 se remarquent.

A pronominal verb is used with a reflexive pronoun (me, te, se, nous, vous) before the verb. It can mean “do to oneself”, “be done” or “do to each other”. In the news, se traduire (to result in), se tenir (to take place), s’agir de (to be a matter of) and se diffuser (to spread) are frequent. The pronoun changes with the subject (il se tient / ils se tiennent / je me souviens).

Chaînes, horaires et disponibilité en streaming peuvent changer.

Put a base-form verb after pouvoir. Peut means “can” or “may”; the conditional pourrait gives a more reserved possibility, “might”. It does not necessarily mean implementation is settled.

La liste des anime d’automne d’Oricon (mise à jour du 22 octobre) recense au total 73 nouveautés et suites pour la période d’octobre.

Le 15 octobre means “on 15 October”. Distinguish the le before a date from the le that marks a weekly habit like a weekday. Du is de + le and au is à + le, so decide the meaning from the verb and period expressions around them. Their role depends on the group: a range of dates, the date of a bulletin or another complement.

La saison 3 de « Kusuriya no hitorigoto » est diffusée depuis le 2 octobre sur le réseau Nippon TV. « Pan Dorobō » passe depuis le 2 octobre sur NHK Éducation. « Black Clover » 2nd Season débute le 3 octobre. « Vertex Force » est diffusé depuis le 3 octobre sur TOKYO MX.

Dès means “as early as” or “as soon as”, and à partir de means “from … onwards”. Depuis basically shows a state or period continuing from a point in time. All deal with a start, but they are not used the same way.

Comme dans l’article d’hier, « Kusuriya no hitorigoto » doit faire l’objet d’une collaboration avec USJ à partir de février 2027.

Devoir + infinitive means “must”, but depending on context it can also mean “is expected to”. Devrait is conditional. In the news, judge from the context whether it is an obligation or a forecast.

Voici des exemples lisibles dans la liste.

Dans means “in, inside” for places, but also for a scope such as a system or period. With future time, dans deux jours means “in two days”. In the article’s example, check what it is “inside” and which scope it marks. Identify the value of dans in the passage.

10月に始まった秋アニメの一覧によると、新作・続編は全73作品です。

As in “LCPによると”, it shows where the information comes from. What that source reported follows. It is used differently from “私にとって”, which gives one’s own opinion.

どこで、いつから見られるかは、作品ごとに違うため、公式サイトで確認するのが確実です。

ため is used for both reason and purpose. “成立ではないため” is a reason and “運転手を守るため” a purpose. Decide from the whole sentence whether what precedes is a cause or a goal.

『薬屋のひとりごと』第3期、『ブラッククローバー』2nd Seasonなど、続編が目立ちます。

“暴言など” gives “abusive language” as one example. It is not necessarily a closed list of only the things named. It also helps when reading the scope of a news story.

『薬屋のひとりごと』第3期は、10月2日から、日本テレビ系で放送が始まりました。

In “発表しました”, ました makes a verb polite past. The negative is “ませんでした”. Read the actual date together with the date and time in the text.

配信の開始日は、放送日とは別に書かれていることがあります。

“〜すること” treats an action or content like a noun. The particle after it (が・を・は…) shows its role in the sentence. “ことができる” is a fixed combination meaning “can”.

『ヴァーティックスフォース』は、10月3日から、TOKYO MXで放送されています。

The て-form links actions in a series, in order or as a reason. In “確認して、出発する” the relation is judged from the content. In “〜ている” it can show an action in progress or a continuing state.
