What's on this week (21–27 September 2026): five anime hit their season finale, Futurama tops TV
By Taha Bilal Özbey · Published September 21, 2026
This is the weekly tour of the calendar: the episodes and premieres between Monday 21 and Sunday 27 September, picked from what's most followed on the schedule and rated highest by viewers. The headline is a pile-up of season finales: Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Season 3, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 4, Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You, Saga of Tanya the Evil Season 2, and Chainsmoker Cat all air their last episode this week, while Re:ZERO Season 4 sits one episode behind, at its own penultimate episode. On TV, Futurama keeps the week's best score and Friday is the busiest day, with three shows airing. In movies, The Love Hypothesis is the week's only perfect score so far. The dates come from the same sync that powers the weekly grid — broadcasters move things around, so the calendar itself is always the source of truth.
