This achievement was reported by Anime Corner on September 6, 2026. The anime secured 16.39% of the total votes counted, gathering over 13,000 votes, marking the second highest vote count for the season.

Re:ZERO Season 4's triumph in the rankings is especially significant as it builds on its previous achievements. The series was recognized as the most anticipated anime of the Spring 2026 season, where it also dominated awards by securing 19 accolades. This impressive reception can be attributed to its compelling storytelling, character development, and the production quality upheld by Studio WHITE FOX, a name synonymous with high-quality anime adaptations.
