who are the new big three in anime
The most common answer to “the new Big Three” in anime is Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man, and Hell’s Paradise —often called Shonen Jump’s “Dark Trio.”
Why people say that
This label is mostly fan-made , not an official industry designation. It comes from the idea that these series became the best-known newer shonen titles after the original Big Three era of One Piece, Naruto, and Bleach.
Other contenders
Some fans argue the “new Big Three” should instead include:
- My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen , because of their huge mainstream reach.
- Demon Slayer or Attack on Titan , because they had massive cultural impact outside the traditional shonen-Jump framing.
Best way to say it
If you want the most widely used current fandom answer , go with:
- Jujutsu Kaisen
- Chainsaw Man
- Hell’s Paradise
If you want the broader mainstream debate , many people would swap in My Hero Academia or Demon Slayer depending on whether they mean popularity, influence, or sales.
