It was Kite Liberator, as A Kite was the final anime I completed in 2024.
Didn't enjoy it much, mainly found it confusing.

Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time, a 1/1 premiere. Really wish MAL let you properly add something to your list if it's been previewed.

The first episode I watched was Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time ep. 1.
Very promising looking isekai with a relaxing theme and multiple people besides the protagonist who're getting summoned to the world. Unfortunately the protagonist seems to start off mostly as a blank slate with no actually backstory from his old world.

Talking about the first show that I finished, I then celebrated the new year by fully rewatching Kay's Daily Doodles again (Chinese short series in the Arknights universe, but I watched the Japanese dub) ✏️❤️

The first episode I watched in 2025 was episode 11 of Sasayaku You ni Koi wo Utau, which I'm glad to finally be able to finish after that crazy delay.

The first new series I started in 2025 was the 3rd season of Beastars.

Kurokami The Animation for me. At first, I felt it was a really underrated shonen that was fun, yet gripping at the same time. Unfortunately, it suffered a bit from certain plot issues during its latter half, yet I was still hooked on the story until Episode 20's big reveal. Now it's a "do not watch unless you like having the entire plot become completely meaningless"

I just remembered watching this anime in winter nearly 10 years ago and decided that New Year's Day is the perfect time to revisit it.

I went old school and started 2025 with some Cowboy Bebop.
@Ade117 That's actually an odd coincidence cause I believe my first anime of last year was Cowboy Bebop. (Or was it 2023?)

To answer the thread question, the first anime I watched this year was Higurashi (the original, heard the new one sucks). And still watching. Quite good.

Haven't started anything in 2025, only finishing things I started last year. Or I guess I rewatched an hour or two of DBZ Abridged, but that's just a parody of an anime. It is, however, much better than the anime itself.
