Re:Zero Season 4 secured its eighth weekly poll victory of Spring 2026 with 17.55 percent of the vote, capping a dominant finale-week performance as the season's rankings close out.
Re:Zero Season 4 closed the Spring 2026 season in emphatic fashion, capturing its eighth weekly poll victory out of eleven weeks with 17.55 percent of the vote. The finale-week result cements the isekai juggernaut as the runaway fan favorite of the season.
Across the entire Spring 2026 slate, no series matched Re:Zero's consistency in weekly fan polling. Eight first-place finishes out of eleven rounds is a level of dominance rarely seen in seasonal rankings, and the finale episode drove especially strong engagement among over 9,000 voters who participated in the Week 11 poll. The 17.55 percent share was more than double that of the second-place finisher, underscoring just how wide the gap between Re:Zero and the rest of the field remained even at the season's end.
White Fox's adaptation has been a force since its Season 4 premiere earlier this spring, consistently drawing passionate viewer response week after week. The finale appears to have delivered on the narrative momentum built throughout the cour, translating directly into polling numbers that dwarfed the competition.
Wistoria: Wand and Sword Season 2 finished the final week in second place with 6.29 percent, a solid showing for the fantasy action series that maintained a steady presence in the upper ranks throughout the season. Witch Hat Atelier landed third at 5.82 percent, continuing the acclaimed adaptation's strong run. The series also performed well in cumulative episode-based rankings across the season, placing among the top overall performers when measured by aggregated episode scores rather than weekly voter polls.
Classroom of the Elite IV took fourth with 5.32 percent, while Daemons of the Shadow Realm rounded out the top five at 4.70 percent. Both titles benefited from dedicated fanbases that kept them competitive in a crowded spring lineup.
The back half of the top ten featured a tight cluster of series separated by fractions of a percentage point. I Made Friends with the Second Prettiest Girl in My Class placed sixth at 3.57 percent, narrowly edging out Marriagetoxin at 3.55 percent. That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 4 came in eighth with 3.50 percent, followed by Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 at 3.18 percent and Nippon Sangoku: The Three Nations of the Crimson Sun closing out the top ten at 3.11 percent.
Notably, episode-based rankings that weigh critical reception and cumulative performance across the full season told a somewhat different story. In those standings, Dorohedoro ranked among the top performers, while Witch Hat Atelier led the cumulative charts. Akane-banashi and Needy Girl Overdose also surged in season-long tallies, highlighting how different measurement methods can surface different winners depending on whether raw fan enthusiasm or consistent episode quality is being tracked.
With Spring 2026 now wrapped, several of the season's strongest performers will carry momentum into sequel announcements and franchise expansions. Re:Zero's dominant polling numbers are likely to bolster anticipation for any future continuation, while Witch Hat Atelier's dual success in both fan voting and cumulative rankings positions it as one of the season's most broadly respected adaptations.
The Summer 2026 season is set to begin in the coming weeks. Viewers looking to catch up on Spring's top performers can find Re:Zero Season 4 streaming on Crunchyroll, while Witch Hat Atelier is available on the same platform. Wistoria: Wand and Sword Season 2 streams on Crunchyroll as well, giving incoming viewers time to marathon the season's highlights before the next wave of premieres arrives.
