HIDIVE has unveiled its Spring 2026 seasonal anime lineup that it will showcase at the upcoming Anime Boston 2026 convention. This year’s Anime Boston will run from April 3, 2026 to April 5, 2026.
The streaming service’s three-day programming schedule will include early previews of shows such as Petals of Reincarnation, Farming Life in Another World 2, The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen: From Villainess to Savior Season 2 and Yowayowa Sensei.
HIDIVE also announced that it has licensed the upcoming Kirio Fan Club TV anime series as part of its Spring 2026 seasonal simulcast lineup. It describes the show’s main premise as:
Aimi and Nami don’t have much in common, with one glaring exception: Kirio, the boy they both have a crush on! The battle to prove who loves him more has begun, leading to such deep philosophical questions as, “Would you still love him if he had farts that broke the sound barrier?” and the classic “Would you still love him if he was a worm?” But as the girls’ friendship deepens, they find themselves wondering if their shot at love is as important as their hilarious and heartwarming friendship.
