This summer has seen a flurry of returns for popular series such as Dandadan, Kaiju no. 8, My Dress-Up Darling, and Sakamoto Days on Crunchyroll, keeping both the platform and fans extremely busy with an abundance of choices. In addition to these returning favorites, the Summer 2025 season has also introduced several exciting new series like Gachiakuta and Ruri Rocks, among others.
It might be assumed that popular shows like “Kaiju no. 8”, “Sakamoto Days”, or “Dandadan” would lead the streaming charts for the season, considering their initial success. However, recent data presents an astonishing twist, with a previously well-loved series from 2019 reclaiming the top spot in viewership rankings during its final season, even outperforming “Dandadan”. As per Flix Patrol’s report dated September 12th, 2025, “Dr. Stone” has emerged as the most streamed anime on Crunchyroll currently, ahead of “The Water Magician” in second place and “Dandadan” in third position. “Dr. Stone” earned a total of 26 points in Flix Patrol’s ranking system, whereas “Dandadan” scored 20, signifying a clear victory for the former.

This list is determined by Flix Patrol’s distinctive scoring method, which considers a show’s global rank, underscoring Dr. Stone’s extensive fanbase despite less vocal enthusiasm compared to trending series like Dandadan. Interestingly, other top picks in this list are relatively underestimated shows. For your reference, here is the complete ranking provided by Flix Patrol:

Observing here, it’s no surprise that Dr. Stone is garnering such a large audience right now, considering this sixth and final season, titled “Dr. Stone: Science Future,” promises to reveal the series’ deepest secrets and mysteries. The buildup in the fourth and last season has been particularly thrilling, with the unraveling of the reason behind humanity’s petrification and Senku’s impending space journey. The appearance of new characters like Stanley and Xeno has only added to the tension, and with more exhilarating plot twists on the horizon, it looks like Dr. Stone will maintain its grip on the number one spot on Crunchyroll for quite some time.
Both Season 2 of Dandadan and Dr. Stone: Science Future can be streamed on Crunchyroll.
