    Top 20 Best Anime Series (In Our Opinion)

    While “top X” lists are a bit of a cliché, we think it’s always interesting to see different perspectives and share what makes these anime shows stand out to us. As fans who have seen hundreds of anime, there are not that many that made us stop and say, “Wow, this is something truly special.” That said, here are the top 20 anime series, chosen by a team of writers who’ve watched hundreds of anime across genres.

    1. Hunter x Hunter

    Hunter x Hunter may have its fair share of hiatuses, but both the manga and anime are still as popular as ever. While the anime might not be as big as Naruto or One Piece due to the frequent breaks, the story of the lovable hunter Gon searching for his long-lost father has solidified itself as one of the best shounen, even with the story still unfinished.

    With rich worldbuilding, memorable characters, and masterfully crafted arcs that explore complex moral themes, Hunter x Hunter is definitely one of the best anime out there.

    2. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

    Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood nails everything, ranging from badass action through real emotional punches to deep, thoughtful stuff, without ever feeling heavy. If there is a king of storytelling done right, this series easily takes the crown. The Elric brothers’ journey is filled with moral dilemmas and personal growth, set against a richly developed world. It strikes that sweet spot between laughs and serious moments, so you’re never bored.

    FMA has received universal acclaim, with a 100% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes and top ratings on platforms like MyAnimeList and IMDb. Of course, you can also watch it on Netflix.

    3. Gintama

    Gintama is one of a kind. It’s stupidly funny one minute and then hits you with emotional gut-punches the next. It somehow juggles parody, chaos, and legit powerful storytelling without ever losing its heart.

    The show is set in an alternate Edo period where aliens have invaded Earth, and samurai Gintoki Sakata takes on odd jobs with his friends to make ends meet, leading to hilarious and action-packed adventures.

    4. Code Geass

    Code Geass is one of those anime that really makes you think about everything, from morality to the choices the characters make. The idea of the MC getting the power to control people with his eyes sounds crazy at first, but it’s how the show digs into the actual consequences of that power that sets it apart. Loved by many, it’s not just about epic battles or awesome mecha action; it’s about strategy, scheming, and the gray area between good and bad.

    The story is set in an alternate future where the Holy Britannian Empire has conquered Japan. Exiled prince Lelouch vi Britannia gains Geass, a power that lets him control anyone with his gaze, and uses it to lead a revolution as the masked vigilante Zero.

    5. Made in Abyss

    Made in Abyss looks super cute at first. The characters have that almost chibi-like art style, and it all seems kinda whimsical. But don’t let that fool you. Not only does it get dark quickly, but it also gets sad just as fast. The anime somehow mixes breathtaking, otherworldly beauty with some seriously gruesome moments, so you’re constantly torn between “wow” and “oh no.”

    Set in a world where a massive, mysterious pit called the Abyss stretches deep into the earth, the story follows a brave girl named Riko who dreams of becoming a legendary Cave Raider like her mother. When she meets a strange robot boy named Reg, the two set off on a dangerous journey into the depths.

    6. Attack on Titan

    In a world besieged by giant humanoid creatures known as Titans, humanity’s remnants reside within massive walled cities. After a colossal Titan breaches the outer wall, young Eren Yeager vows to eradicate every Titan, joining the military to fight back.

    Attack on Titan is the kind of series you show your friend when they say anime is just for kids. With its intense storyline and exploration of mature themes like freedom, oppression, and the human condition, it quickly proves otherwise. Not to mention, it has one of the best plot twists in anime history.

    7. Samurai Champloo

    Samurai Champloo is about samurai and katana fights. Do I really have to say more?

    A mixture of both the past and present, its story is packed full of fillers, and that’s what made Samurai Champloo so great. Its journey, not necessarily the destination. The destination was great too, but the show does so much more than it needed to. Normally, mixing so many things into a plot could be bad, but Samurai Champloo does it wonderfully. And the traveling companions are like water and oil.

    It’s a show for everyone. There’s plenty of great sword-slashing action, clever comedy, and a good share of moments that will tug at your heartstrings, often all at once.

    8. Spy x Family

    In Spy x Family, we meet Loid Forger, a top-tier spy who builds a fake family for a mission. He marries Yor, a kind woman who’s secretly an assassin, and adopts Anya, a telepathic girl who knows the truth but just wants a real family.

    None of them know each other’s real identity (except Anya), and her reactions are comedy gold.

    Spy x Family is universally loved by most people fortunate enough to come across it, and it’s not hard to see why. It’s funny, wholesome, stylish, and easy to get into, even if you don’t usually watch anime. It doesn’t rely on heavy lore, weird tropes, or anything confusing. Moreover, its English dub is surprisingly good.

    9. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

    Among the newer anime, Demon Slayer (2019) stole the spotlight, and honestly, my heart too, with its gorgeous animation and emotional storytelling. The main guy might seem like your typical shounen hero at first, but that doesn’t take away from how beautifully built the world is or how powerful his journey feels. It’s packed with action, but it also hits hard emotionally in a way you don’t always expect.

    In this anime, after demons slaughter his family and turn his sister Nezuko into one, Tanjiro Kamado joins the Demon Slayer Corps to avenge his family and find a cure for Nezuko.

    10. March Comes in Like a Lion

    The animation and soundtrack in this anime are amazing. It’s one of those series that is much more than it appears on the surface, with plenty of layers and depth.

    March Comes in Like a Lion follows Rei Kiriyama, a young boy who loses his parents and sister in an accident. He is left to live with a family friend, where things take a darker turn, leading him to become a professional shogi player.

    March Comes in Like a Lion is a powerful coming-of-age story about overcoming depression, and it really helped me understand myself a bit more. It even got me to try my hand at shogi, though I’m no Rei Kiriyama!

    11. Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash

    ranta-yume funny Grimgar Ashes and Illusions

    Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash is a unique anime that really felt realistic to me. We watched our characters go from 0 to not a 100, but they did get a bit better. With each of their interactions and the plot, I noticed this. I really felt like these were characters I would love to laugh, cry, and go on adventures with.

    With a great story, characters, art, and sound, it really is a shame it was only 12 episodes. I’m still waiting patiently for a second season. Until then, I still go back now and then to watch the 12 episodes we have so far. With its large main cast, it was still able to balance between the group and the individuals, and that’s a very hard task to carry out.

    12. 86

    In a dystopian future, the Republic of San Magnolia claims to be fighting a war with drones, but the truth is that the oppressed “86” are forced to pilot mechs. The story follows Lena, a handler from the Republic, and Shin, a battle-hardened 86 soldier, as they slowly form a bond across the divide.

    86 (2021)is one of the best newer anime out there, and fans are eagerly waiting for season 2 to be announced. While the description sounds bleak, 86 isn’t just grim; it has some genuinely beautiful, hopeful, and even tender moments that hit even harder because of all the darkness around them.

    13. Kamisama Kiss

    Nanami is a high school girl who’s down on her luck. Her dad ditches her, she’s broke, and she ends up homeless. But then she saves a weird guy from a dog, and he’s like, “Hey, you can have my house.” Totally normal… except that “house” turns out to be a shrine, and suddenly she’s a land god living with a grumpy yet handsome fox familiar.

    Kamisama Kiss is sweet and funny, and it has actual relationship development. Not just endless flirting with no payoff. Those who like a sprinkle of fantasy, a sprinkle of mischief, and a whole lot of heart, Kamisama Kiss finely hits the spot.

    14. KonoSuba

    God’s Blessing on this Wonderful World! is very good too. It may look like any other RPG harem, but it is so much more than that.

    It’s not a show trying to teach you any life lessons; it’s just a show full of entertainment, hilarious moments, and lightheartedness.

    It’s just a pure joy to watch, and one of the best gateway anime for new viewers.

    15. Princess Jellyfish

    Here’s another lesser-known anime that Rai (from Rai’s Anime Blog) and I talked about recently. It features a cross-dressing male character and a young otaku surrounded by her fellow otaku friends.

    The storyline really tugged at my heart with its simplicity and the dedication to its themes. You can read my full review of it here.

    16. Fruits Basket

    I’ve always loved both the Fruits Basket manga and the original 2001 anime, even though there were some differences. A heartwarming story, the series follows a girl who becomes entangled with a family cursed to transform into animals of the Chinese zodiac.

    The 2019 remake takes things up a notch. It follows the manga much more closely, and you can tell that Natsuki Takaya was more involved this time around.

    17. Bokura wa Minna Kawai-sou

    Bokura wa Minna Kawai-sou is a great shoujo to watch that doesn’t seem rushed, especially with just 12 episodes.

    The art and sound were amazing, and the characters were all so lovely and quirky (but in a good way). I really think everyone will see a bit of themselves in one of the characters.

    My joy for this anime surprised me because I usually find romance anime not really my thing, but the love in this anime felt really believable and puts a spin on the usual boy meets girl, boy confesses his feelings, and they share a kiss. But it was different this time; the comedy and great characters really bring the story to life and make you love every moment of the anime.

    18. Inuyasha

    Of course, Inuyasha is my favorite. It was my first real anime, and I quickly fell in love with the story and the adorable hanyou (half-demon, half-human).

    It’s a perfect mix of romance and action, with plenty of hilarious and classic one-liners you’ll never forget. To top it off, it’s oddly comforting and perfect to watch when you’re feeling down.

    19. Fairy Tail

    Now, Fairy Tail is one of those mainstream anime that you either love or hate. Personally, I loved the artwork and the many plotlines that kept things exciting. I can’t even count how many times I bawled my eyes out while watching this show.

    Family and friendship are things everyone connects with, and they’re at the heart of a lot of shounen, with Fairy Tail being no exception. It’s exactly that bond between the fleshed-out characters that makes this series so great. Fairy Tail is one of those series I always recommend for newcomers since it’s easy to follow, filled with epic fights, goofy banter, and a wholesome theme.

    20. Shugo Chara

    Not many people know about this one, but I absolutely love it. As a kid, I related to it so much. It even gave me the courage to embrace being the “weird anime kid” in school and helped me feel less alone.

    The artwork might be a bit odd (especially the eyes), but that doesn’t stop me from loving it. It’ll always hold a special place in my heart.

    Okay, everyone! That’s a wrap! Have you all seen any of these already, or not? Let us know what you think in the comments below!

    As always,

    Keep Smiling!

    • Theme(s): Comedy, Music

    Souichi Negishi is a timid and quiet boy. He is also Krauser II, leader of Detroit Metal City (DMC), the most popular underground metal band in Japan! Even though he would rather be home drinking green tea, listening to and composing laid-back indie-pop.

    All twelve episodes are hilarious, unexpected, and brilliantly written. Though the humor here might not be for everyone, with its comedy leaning more toward dark humor. The series comically explores the concept of losing your sense of identity while fronting a persona.

    18.

    • Episodes: 12
    • Aired: Fall 2015

    After rigorously training for three years, the ordinary Saitama has gained immense strength, which allows him to take out anyone and anything with just one punch. However, he quickly becomes bored with easily defeating monsters, and wants someone or something to give him the challenge to feel the thrill and adrenaline of fighting a tough battle.

    One Punch Man nails the formula of comedy and action. The series is pure ridiculousness and awesomeness made animated. It made me laugh with its simple dialogues, facial expressions, and reactions between the characters. No matter how many times you rewatch this series, it never gets boring.

    17.
    Tanaka-kun is Always Listless

    Tanaka-kun-is-Always-Listless-anime-oota-with-tanaka-hangingout

With the help of his caring and reliable best friend Oota, as well as various other classmates, Tanaka strives to spend his high school days in the most peaceful way possible, avoiding high-energy situations and just lying down for a good nap.

    An underrated anime comedy show that is a fun, laid-back slice of life with a refreshing approach to comedy. Not everyone might find the show appealing, but it’s rewarding to those who just want to watch something relaxing yet hilarious.

    16.
    Spy x Family

    • Theme(s): Action, Comedy

    Under the guise of “The Forgers,” a spy, an assassin, and an esper must act as a family while carrying out their own agendas. Although these liars and misfits are only playing parts, they soon find that family is about far more than just blood.

    The series meets and exceeds expectations, thanks to its comic timing, facial and mouth reactions, and well-executed action. Mixing the comedy and serious moments perfectly, making you feel a wide range of emotions thanks to the show’s approach.

    15.
    The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.

    • Titled: Saiki Kusuo no Ψ-nan
    • Episodes: 120
    • Aired: Summer 2016
    • Theme(s): Comedy, School, Supernatural

    Saiki is a boy born with psychic abilities in a normal world. Reading minds, teleporting, and x-ray vision are just a few examples of his supernatural abilities. Powerful enough to take over the world single-handedly all Saiki wants is an ordinary quiet life, but with odd classmates and friends, an ordinary life might just be out of the question.

    The series is a very original and hilarious comedy, full of lovable characters that will make you laugh till the end. If you’re a fan of comedy anime, watch this one if you haven’t yet, and if you aren’t, I still strongly recommend you try it, it will surprise you.

    14.
    WataMote: No Matter How I Look At It, It’s You Guys’ Fault I’m Unpopular!

    • Aired: Summer 2013
    • Theme(s): Comedy, School

    The series chronicles the life of a socially awkward and relatively friendless high school otaku as she attempts to overcome her barriers to living a fulfilling life.

    Watamote wastes no time romanticizing high school life but ‌portrays it comedically and painfully for what is in reality. While social anxieties are certainly a serious issue, something is refreshing about having a show that centers on them not taking itself seriously, and simply invites the viewers to laugh them off.

    13.
    Barakamon

    • Episodes: 12

    Barakamon is an excellent slice-of-life comedy anime with great character development and emotions. The story tells a hilarious story about finding oneself in the most unlikely of places. Its simplicity will take your mind off of life.

    12.

    • Titled: Wagnaria!!

    Powered by an eccentric cast, Working!! is a unique workplace comedy that follows the never-dull happenings within the walls of Wagnaria as Popura Taneshima and his co-workers’ quirky personalities combine to create non-stop antics, shenanigans, and hilarity.

    The premise puts us into the inner workings of a family restaurant. The employees’ strangeness and issues set up all the outstanding and original comedy. It is a great watch for both old and new anime viewers, especially for viewers who love a little dark humor.

    11.

Unfortunately, he fails right away when he takes the seat beside the school’s madonna — Komi. His peers now recognize him as someone to eliminate for a chance to sit next to the most beautiful girl in class.

    In this wacky take on the high school comedy genre and anxiety, the series’ unique nature of comedy and characters entertain us each episode. It’s a fun, memorable comedy that is approachable for even non-anime fans to watch and enjoy. It’s not perfect but it will leave you with something to talk about after the credits roll.

    10.

    Relationships may be frowned upon at Fujisaki Academy, but that doesn’t stop girls from fantasizing about romance. Natsuo, Riko along with other members of the Love Lab club try to find out exactly what love is through so-called “love experimentation”.

    Love Lab builds a story of friendship and romance, while never missing a beat to be a hilarious, clean, and fun-filled watch. Given the number of comedies that rely on fanservice and uncomfortable jokes, it is a refreshing character-based and situational humor. It even has a feel-good ending with a lesson about friendship.

    The plot follows Iori’s misadventures with his eccentric new friends as he strives to realize his ideal college dream, while also learning how to scuba dive.

    From the adult humor to the many character gags, it’s an anime that plays with itself and establishes itself as a self-aware humorous showstopper full of funny faces.

Excited about his new independent life, he hopes to go about his teenage days without the worry of dealing with any strange people, but as he soon discovers, his new boarding house Kawai Complex is far from ordinary.

    If you like romantic comedies, then this anime is for you. I enjoyed its mixture of light-hearted and serious moments, realistically showing love, with some witty comedy and a diverse cast of characters. The show tells stories about youth and growing up with others who are so different.

    7.
    Asobi Asobase: Workshop of Fun

    • Aired: Summer 2018
    • Theme(s): Comedy, School

    Whether it be failing to learn English, trying desperately to become popular, or getting caught by teachers at the wrong time, school life will never be boring when the girls of Asobi Asobase are up to their hilarious antics.

    Asobi Asobase has a strong comedic presence, though underrated, hidden behind it is an insane amount of high school gag comedies, obscene figures, facial expressions, and wholesome experience not to be missed.

    6.
    Arakawa Under the Bridge

    Arakawa_Under_the_Bridge-the-whole-cast-wedding-scene-best-comedy-anime
    • Episodes: 13
    • Aired: Spring 2010
    • Theme(s): Comedy, Romance

    Kou Ichinomiya has a policy of not being indebted to anyone. However, a series of events lead to him owing his life to a strange girl who goes by the name Nino. Kou insists on paying her back, but Nino wants only one thing: to fall in love. Asking Kou to be her boyfriend, he has no choice but to accept, forcing him to move out of his comfortable home and start a new life under the bridge with Nino and her group of even stranger friends.

    Charming and hilarious was my first thought when watching Arakawa Under The Bridge. Despite its insane plot, ridiculous characters, and hints of deeper meanings disguised under its comedic moments and heartwarming scenes, there never once was a dull moment during my time under the Arakawa Bridge.

    5.
    Daily Lives of High School Boys

    Daily-Lives-of-High-School-Boys-the-whole-cast-best-Anime-comedy
    • Titled: Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou
    • Episodes: 12
    • Aired: Winter 2012
    • Theme(s): Comedy, School

    Tadakuni, Hidenori, and Yoshitake are students at the all-boys academy, Sanada North High School. This is a tale about just that—their daily lives as students. Whether it’s sparking random arguments while hanging out with friends, meeting that one weird co-worker at a part-time job, or even letting imaginations run wild on a windy afternoon, we’ve all experienced the show’s ordinary but true-to-life themes at one point or another.

    Those years spent in High School are special in a simple and silly way and it is that way that the series tries and successfully recreates in a hilarious manner — youth and the epic journey called growing up. It’s a solid comedy anime that any comedy fan should check out.

    4.
    Space Dandy

    Space☆Dandy-qt-dandy-and-meow-being-hilarious
    • Episodes: 13
    • Aired: Winter 2014

    Join the best dressed alien hunter in all of space and time as he embarks on an adventure, exploring unknown worlds in search of new aliens no one has ever laid eyes on while traveling through the galaxy with his robot assistant QT and a cat-like alien named Meow. At the edge of the universe, it’s first come, first served!

    Space Dandy is hilarious, and amazing, and watching Dandy and his brave space crew’s goofy humor was a great pleasure to watch. It’s a funny show with simply some of the best stories.

    KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on This Wonderful World!

    konosuba-2-op-04-quest-completed
    • Titled: Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo!
    • Episodes: 10
    • Aired: Winter 2016
    • Theme(s): Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy, Parody

    The story focuses on Kazuma Satou who dies a laughable and pathetic death on his way back from buying a game, in the most unheroic way at that. When he reawakens in the afterlife, Kazuma is given two choices: go to heaven or defeat the Demon King. Being every gamer’s dream to be in a real fantasy world, he goes with the latter, taking the goddess Aqua with him. But it turns out living in such a world is far different from how it plays out in a game.

    KonoSuba is a series with silly comedy, anti-harem, and anti-OP main character themes that were a breath of fresh air. It is a series where you can leave your brain at the front door and just enjoy whatever is thrown at you. It also has a lot of rewatch value!

    2.
    Gintama

    Gintama-gintoki-funny-silly-face-moment-best-comedy-anime
    • Episodes: 201
    • Aired: Spring 2006
    • Theme(s): Action, Comedy, Historical, Samurai, Sci-Fi, Parody

    When aliens take over Japan. One eccentric individual wielding a wooden sword refuses to let his samurai spirit die. Gintoki, joined by his self-proclaimed disciple Shinpachi, the alien Kagura, and a giant dog named Sadaharu, often get caught up in many crazy and hilarious shenanigans to make ends meet.

    Gintama is so unique and unconventional that I feel it falls into a category of its own. It’s a masterclass in comedy writing and variety; a series that grows in originality with each episode, it’s so inventive, fresh, dynamic, and interesting.

    1.
    Nichijou – My Ordinary Life

    Nichijou–My-Ordinary-Life-some-of-the-main-cast
    • Episodes: 26
    • Aired: Spring 2011
    • Theme(s): Comedy, School

    Focusing on the daily antics of a trio of childhood friends Mio, Yuuko, and Mai who encounter the young genius Hakase, her robot maid Nano, and their talking cat Sakamoto. Every day is a bizarre and unique experience. From stumbling across a wrestling match between the principal and a deer to indulging in a chopstick battle over a sausage. The excitement never ends.

    The series is one of a kind. It emphasizes slapstick comedy but still adds lighthearted moments all within the same episode. It stands above much other comedy anime with fun characters and hilarious plot twists.

  • Worst Anime of All Time!

    Worst Anime of All Time!

    You always see lists of all the best anime of all time but it’s rare to see them for the WORST anime of all time. So I decided to bug my roommates and ask around to see what people thought the worst anime of all time would be.

    FLCL aka Fooly Cooly

    FLCL has been labeled as a masterpiece and something pleasantly different. If an anime show has this much praise, the I’m expecting something enjoyable and funny.

    Sadly, FLCL did not offer anything but pain.

    There is absolutely no story behind this anime. It is just six episodes of disjointed scripts that attempt to fuse together as many genres as possible then injected with pointless crude humor.


    Many would argue that this show is nothing but a random and nonsensical arrangement of spontaneous events. It’s full of pointless and meaningless slapstick humor that cheapens the show, makes it impossible to take seriously as an anime and gives it a “loony toons” vibe of immaturity.

    Aho Girl

    Overall, if you are looking for a short anime with endless comedy gags with no clear story or plot but just laughter, then this anime is for you. It’s slightly lewd, but over the top comedy.

    However, Aho Girl is also painful to watch. While doing a comedy list, I came across this anime. I made it about five minutes before I caved. Seriously, this anime made me want to bang my head against a wall and scream. More so than Diabolic Lovers ever did.

    First and foremost, this show is simply not funny. Aho Girl makes a spectacle of itself – presenting faux-meaningful observations; idolizing its vapid female lead; overindulging in panty shots; while accomplishing absolutely nothing in the end.

    The testament of Sister New Devil or Shinmai Maou no Testament

    In my opinion this show is just bad.


    First of all half, the show is unwatchable. Half of the show is white bars of light covering the screen during the more sexual oriented scenes. I don’t know about anyone else, but I don’t like staring at anything for almost 3 to 5 minutes at a time, with an occasional face or backside appearing in a shot.

    Second, the story is just so messy and all over the place. Most of the story makes little to no sense, due to plot holes. You may argue that it isn’t about the story, but the point is the story tries to bring in characters and world building it didn’t even need.

    Overall, feel free to disagree, but there is so much holding this series back. There are some interesting ideas sprinkled here and there, but not a single one of them were represented properly here. This is simply a mediocre show, just not worth anyone’s time, not even the most hardcore of ecchi anime fans. 

    HAKYUU HOUSHIN ENGI

    I love the Houshin Engi manga, so when I saw it was going to receive another anime, I was hopeful this one would cover the whole story and do a decent job on its adaptation. Sadly, I was wrong. The first episode already shows big differences between the two. The story is badly told. You can’t understand much if you don’t know it already.

    I still recommend the manga, but this anime shouldn’t exist.

    Most viewers will not like this anime for two simple reasons: It’s not very good and most of all, not very enjoyable either. It walks the path of mediocrity without even trying to be anything. The outcome is very bland and a total lackluster. 

    This adaptation did surprisingly many questionable choices. First and foremost is the lack of introduction. Viewers are quite directly thrown into a random world around random characters. Nothing is explained, things just somewhat are there and stuff happens because it does.

    THE MASTER OF RAGNAROK & BLESSER OF EINHERJAR or Hyakuren no Haou to Seiyaku no Valkyria

    Even when stacked up against Isekai abominations like Death March and Isekai wa Smartphone, it still somehow manages to be even worse! In fact, this might just be the worst Isekai anime that I’ve seen to date, and considering the generally poor quality of the genre, that’s really saying something. So yes, this anime is definitely incredible!

    Incredibly bad.

    This anime doesn’t even bother to start with the protagonist getting inexplicably transported to a fantasy world. When we’re introduced to him, he’s already been in another world for two years, so it’s almost like this isn’t even an Isekai anime. Anyway, our protagonist, named Super Ultra Omnipotent Usurper, or Suou for short, is a perfect being in every way! He’s the most morally just and relatable character ever, is a military genius, and, most importantly, gets all the women! Actually, only the latter is true, but the anime still desperately tries to give him character traits that make him more than just a chick magnet.

    Too bad they fail miserably.

    Suou is a conqueror, plain and simple. Not of nations, but of women. Yet what makes him stand out from his fellow Kirito clones? Well, Suou is unique in that when he claims a girl as his property, he makes her a part of his “family.” That’s right, this guy forces his women to become his little sisters and daughters. Then makes them address him as “papa” and “big brother.” He also doesn’t seem to give a crap about his soldiers and doesn’t bat an eye when they’re slaughtered in combat. And the best part is that the writers still try to portray him as an “I am holier than thou” type of character.

    Thanks to the solar-powered smartphone that Suou just so happens to have, our hero is able to look up military tactics of great historical leaders like Alexander the Great and Sun Tzu and implement them in battles. Of course, you really can’t tell what battle strategies are being used during fight scenes due to the hideous visuals that make everything look like an utter mess.

    A random red haired dude in this anime wisely said “the details don’t matter.” I think the writers must have taken that sentence to heart. Nothing about this anime makes any sense. The plot goes nowhere, and the characters are painfully bland and annoying.

    Goblin Slayer

    “Anyone who likes/dislikes this show is a Nazi/Libtard.” – The state of the anime community after episode 1.

    I think it’s fair to say that no other anime has caused such controversy and overwhelming divide amongst anime fans after a single episode like Goblin Slayer has. A scene lasting around fifteen seconds featuring a character being raped receiving more condemnation than every other anime airing this year.

    So, feel free to watch Goblin Slayer if you enjoy dark-fantasy and have a tolerance for uncomfortable content. Or skip it, because truth told, Goblin Slayer was never really worth caring that much about in the first place.

    Hanoka

    Hanoka was the very first full fledged anime series to be animated completely in Flash. This is a terrible mistake. The flash makes the animation look unnatural, especially when viewing the characters. The faces and heads do not look right at all, and the faces show no expression on them what so ever. I do applaud the makers for trying flash, but it appears that the technology has come nowhere close to make it worthwhile.

    I’m not really sure what I expected from this show initially. I’m all for new techniques used in any kind of context, and given that this Anime series had been animated entirely in Flash format, I thought of it as perhaps something exciting.

    Throughout the show, we see the usual, predictable scenes such as “I’ll fight to protect you”, “he gave me a reason to live”, and “aagh you fatally injured him and now my powers increased tenfold because of my emotional distress”. The originality of the show is close to zero. No, if it’s a proper story you’re looking for, then this isn’t it.

    Also the ending has got to be the worst ending I have ever seen to an anime series. Terrible does not even begin to describe Hanoka.

    Ghost Stories Gakkou no Kaidan

    The thing about this anime is that it is actually REALLY really bad. It bombed in Japan and it is easy to see why.

    However……

    Aniplex was handed the English dub of the show, knowing it was a failure in Japan and it SEEMS they didn’t take the dub too seriously. So what do we get? The best dub that has ever been done ever.
    Let me try to explain; the voice actors decided to add really adult jokes, often breaking the fourth wall and mocking the show itself. It’s like a fandub with comedians or an Abridged series, but full episodes.

    To me, there was a certain formula for watching this show. It’s definitely not a series someone should marathon. Nope, it should be enjoyed an episode or two at a time. Any more and you’ll find yourself sick of the studpidity.
     Ghost stories is so bad it’s good. The show gets most of its fame from being so awful and the dub so hilarious.

    My advice to you is to watch the Dub. Bear in mind, the adult humor may be offputting to younger audiences. Or if you get offended easily, then please do NOT watch this. Ghost Stories English dub tries to be offensive to everyone and it succeeds.

    So, what do you think? Do you agree with this list? What animes do you hate? Let me know in the comments below!

    As always,

    Keep Smiling!



  • Master Fu is Marinette’s Grandfather?!

    Master Fu is Marinette’s Grandfather?!

    Master Fu is Marinette’s Grandfather?!

    *With Season 3, Master Fu is NOT actually Marinette’s Grandfather. This is pretty much a parody that used to be theory before season 3 came out. But it was a fun theory to begin*

    With as much as I love this fandom, I HAD to make an article soon for all my beloved fan theories. I’m completely obsessed with this fandom and seriously cannot get enough of it.  As dedicated fans, we all love some crazy good theories.  There’s speculation behind certain moments of what has happened or what’s going to come. I mean just look at the Harry Potter fandom. I’m a serious HP nerd and will fight anyone over this, but some major theorists stated that Dumbledore was gay(I totally believe this and just love him more) and also that he was the REAL villain of the story.

    As much as I would love to go ahead and start a whole article about why he ISN’T, this one is for My Lady and My Precious Cinnamon Roll.

    Since falling headfirst and letting my soul become consumed by this fandom, I started thinking more of the world around it. We could just be content with the cute and heart-warming story of a French-Korean animated show that has lots of laughs and one of the world’s most frustrating love squares…but…no.

    See, I think there’s more to this world than meets the eye. When Season 2 was first announced(but not released) with a panel at Comic-Con, several articles popped up connecting Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Chat Noir to other universes and worlds…such as the Marvel Universe. According to Thomas Astruc, “[The Quantic Universe] is the extended universe in which live Ladybug and Cat Noir. Ladybug is to Quantic Universe what Spider-Man is to the Marvel-verse or Batman to the DC-verse. Quantic Universe is filled with super-heroes in all countries, alien races, magic… Ladybug is just a tiny part of it.  Previously, according to Astruc, it was also possible that Félix, the first version of Cat Noir before Adrien, still existed in some way there. However, Astruc later stated that Félix will never appear.

    The Quantic Kids was an old, unused concept of Ladybug and Cat Noir (featuring Félix as Cat Noir, rather than Adrien) being members of a superhero team, as requested by a producer. It failed to help sell the concept of Ladybug to broadcasters, which resulted in Ladybug and Cat Noir remaining as a duo.

    As a proud nerd, I loved this and lapped it up. But there was one fan theory that I thought of and it had me thinking…

    Master Fu…

    Now, we know that Master Fu holds a Miraculous(Wayzz) and is a cute little turtle kwami, but I think there’s a little more to it than that. See…I have this theory that Master Fu…is actually Marinette’s Grandfather. Well, her great-great-great-grandfather considering he’s 186 years old.

    I know, right? I can hear alarms going off in your heads already as I type this! But bear with me one moment. I think it explains so much that Marinette’s parents don’t recognize(aka acknowledge) that their daughter is Ladybug. Why? Because they already know. We know there’s a “magic” theory for why Adrien and Marinette don’t recognize each other in their hero outfits, but Marinette’s family doesn’t have that excuse. They know her too well AND her voice.

    It already bugs the crap out of me that Adrien can’t tell that Marinette is Ladybug. They LOOK and SOUND the same! The only thing I can think of is that since he changes his hair and eyes during transformation, he probably suspects that Ladybug does as well. He probably thinks that Marinette is a fan which is why she wears her hair in the same style as Ladybug. Even though the more obvious reason is that THEY’RE THE SAME FREAKING PERSON! 

    But our precious cinnamon roll isn’t always the best at noticing the obvious…like his Father being Hawkmoth but that’s a whole other can of crushing worms that hurts my soul. When Adrien finds out, it’s going to kill me. My poor child! He’s already in a broken and lonely home…

    (Insert break for major fangirl crying and needing to calm down)

    Back to the theory about Master Fu…

    My theory is that Mariette’s mom already knows about the miraculous’s and is only pretending to not know to help her daughter grow more into the Ladybug that Paris needs at the moment. She probably figures that Marinette will tell her when she’s ready. More than that, it’s set in PARIS. WHY would the only CHINESE people on the show be her mother and Master Fu?

    BECAUSE THEY’RE RELATED.

    It just makes sense. I know it’s just a theory but it’s a major head-canon and I believe it 100%. What do ya’ll think? I would love to hear your opinions in the comments below!

  • 12 Anime You should be watching this 2018

    12 Anime You should be watching this 2018

      Hello everyone, HAPPY NEW YEAR, thank you for following us and all the love and if you are like me you are probably wondering what you can or should be watching this year 2018. So Yo! D101 made a list of upcoming anime this season and there is a lot to expect this year.😊

    So let’s gets started on our list of what you should be watching this year ;

    One Punch Man 2

    In 2015 season 1 of One Punch Man ended and it really left on a high note and it’s been over two years since then. For those who haven’t watched it you should, it follows the story of Saitama who wants becomes a hero for fun and he is the strongest hero ever in his universe so far.

    OPM fans have been refreshing pages every day on new about a second season and the wait is finally over, we are getting a second season. But there as been a change in the staff members, the series will be animated by J.C.Staff instead of Madhouse, some people are worried about this but I don’t think you should, J.C.Staff havery some good animations to their name like;

    A certain magic index, Railgun, Golden time, Shokugeki no Souma and a lot more, so I think we are in good arms. So they have what it takes.  So let’s wait for all the comedy, action, super powers, Si-Fi and seriousness. Whatever you are looking for OPM as a lot to offer.

    Shingeki no Kyojin Season 3 and Movie

        Its a manga by Hajime Isayama, its finally coming a season 3 but not before the third movies a recap of what happened in season 2, so for any one who missed out you can watch that. This time we didn’t need to wait so long.
        I know some might have been discourage by season 2, which were just 12 episodes and not 25 like the first season, Levitation didn’t have much scenes and it mostly felt like filler episodes to me most have the time. But it had some good parts, like finding out Ymir was a titan or the biggest shocker to me that I watched an thought maybe there was a mistake in the translation, was when Reiner Braun and Bertolt Hoover who had fought with everyone through the hell that is Shingeki no Kyojin world, turned out to be the Armored Titan and Colossus Titan took sometime to sink in for me but in the world of Shingeki no Kyojin, you only have like a minute to absorb it in and react.
        Maybe that’s one of the many reasons why we love it, it follows Milo Murphy’s law, anything bad that can happen will happen and at the worse possible time. I really feel no character is safe from getting the axe, cause in the world they live in anyone can die in the blink of an eye.
        I read a bit of the manga and the action will be coming this season more than ever, and this season should be longer than 12 episodes, so expect a lot from season 3 of Shingeki no Kyojin.

    Boku no Hero Academia 3rd Season and Movie

        Last season,  we saw how One For All functions a bit more, Midoriya taken on the Hero Killer Stain, with Todoroki and Lida, learn a bit more about a villian, All For One and if the manga as anything to say of how season 3, will be it’s going to be packed full with a lot of action and excitement.
         If you couldn’t wait like me and took a peek at the manga, it will cover the School Trip Arc and can go beyond because there is enough content for a season 3, 4 and maybe even more. Let’s hope we get more episodes this season.  I really enjoy Boku no Hero Academia but I was sceptical at first but I see it going really far, even the creator would like to show them to the point of our heros maturing and showing their lifes as pro heros, so let watch and see but I think we have another manga like Naruto that will eventually branch to their children taking  over.
        Another thing to look forward to is the movie, not much is know yet except that it won’t be a recap movie but delve into the backstory of an unknown character, in addition to featuring the character of class 1-A, showing new a character’s origins. So that something to really look forward to. And I can’t wait.

    Nanatsu no Taizai : Imashime no Fukkatsu and a Movie

      It took 3 years but we finally got a second season, it’s coming back with full force with a season 2, a movie, and a PlayStation 4 game. It will still be produced by A-1 Pictures.
       They seem to have gotten their holy weapons back and it seems they will be facing the demon clan this season, so expect a lot more insane fights this season and lots of laughs. Its going to be great.
      Season 1 covered the first 103 chapters, so I think season 2 will pick up from there and cover up to chapter 197, and the movie could pick up for then, with a third season to start from chapter 219. So far no information on the movie as been let out.

    Tokyo Ghoul:re

       Tokyo Ghoul is back and this time the story picks up Two years after the CCG’s raid on Anteiku. Things seemed to have changed in Tokyo, ghouls continue to pose more of a problem as they have begun to take action, especially the Ghoul terrorist group Aogiri.
       A special team as been created the Quinx Squad, they are humans that have undergone surgery, giving them special abilitiesof ghouls and they might just be what the CCG need to eradicate the ghouls. The leader of the group Haise Sasaki, half-ghoul, half-human who had been trained by special class investigator, Kishou Arima. But unknown memories trouble the leaders mind, slowly reminding him of who he use to be.
       Its great we are getting a season 3, but while people are worried about the director and really worried about the script, season 2 was really bad to me and didn’t portray the characters well and greatly differed from the script.
     
       But am reading the manga at the moment and it can get confusing, so the animate characters if done well could explain a lot of things, that get confusing with the massive amount of characters, we have in the story. Guess we will just have to see how it goes, but hoping for the best cause am a fan of Tokyo Ghoul.

    Fairy Tail  (2018)

     

    Since 2006, after 175 episode TV series, a 102 episode sequel, 2 OVA and 2 film, a side story novel and several spin off manga Fair Tail is coming to end. Its another long running shounen like Naruto to get an animated end. Most got nothing like Reborn, Bleach and with endless hiatus Manga like hxh, grayman and others only wonder if some will get.

    Hiro Mashima revealed on his official Twitter account that the final season of the series will premiere this year, but don’t be afraid this might not be the end of your beloved series, as like Naruto, it might just be the end of one characters story and the beginning of another. He said he doesn’t think Fairy Tail is done just yet, that he still has a lot of plans and we should look forward to that.

    Am really looking forward to the new season, hoping for a better plot this season cause last season seemed to get just up and down the place to me after a while, and I was just watching at a point because I had gone to far to just stop watching Fairy Tail.

    Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu OVA

      I really want to scream WHY OVA ! WE WANT A NEW SEASON, they are keeping us this interested, and it’s understandable I guess White Fox has their hands completely full right now, with Steins;Gate 0 and the Peacemaker movie, but hopeful maybe we will here something after the OVA airs.
       The OVA should either be about the side story where Subaru gets pissed that there no Mayonnaise, in this new world he is in, so he tries to make one from scratch.
                                                              Or
      It could be to fill the time gap between episodes 10 and 11, because a lot of event after the events of the dog attack in the village was skipped that that show how Rem and Subaru got so close, for people that complained about it.

    Date A Live 3rd Season

    My guilty pleasure is finally back, after two series adaptations in 2013, 2014 and a film in 2015, now this year Date A Live is back for a third season.

    The anime should cover volume 8-11, it’s been so long I hope this new season will be better than season 2 that seemed rushed and let it lose most of its popularity.

    The light novel as brought the popularity back for Date A Live and I thick IMS are more prepared now to create something really good, this time around

    The series has already been adapted into two TV series (one in 2013, one in 2014) and a theatrical film (in 2015) with direction by Keitaro Motonaga and animation by Production IMS. Let’s hope they get it rightthis time around.

    Terra Formars OVA

      Finally the OVA adaptations of the series Earth Chapter that should have been released with volume 21, that was delayed indefinitely will be out this year.
      So we can expect a lot of action, excitement and maybe a 3rd season after this OVA. Looking forward to this.

    Peacemaker Kurogane Movie 1 : Omou Michi

       Refresher it follows Ichimaru Tetsunosuke who is traumatized by witnessing the murder of his parents, making him want revenge and for this he needs strength and at age 15, he joins the Shinsengumi against his supportive brothers wishes, Tetsunosuke. He soon realises he lacks the skill, mind and emotionless cut out for the job. To become strong he will have to become a demon.
       I was so happy when I heard it was being brought back as a two part anime film, this time who will see our protagonist as a young adult which will be a new angle we have not seen him in yet. It will be release on June 2, 2018 and the second part in the fall.
       The film has a stellar cast and the old voice actors and actresses are coming back, so I have know doubt we are in for a treat.

    Made in Abyss 2nd Season

        So far this as not been verified as coming out this year, but I really hope it does, realistically it might not be until 2019 or 2020 before getting a second season.
        At first I won deed by it was rated 17+, but the anime is really harsh and ruthless to its characters. The graphics are very beautiful and you really feel like you are immersed in the world, to the moe drawings of the characters that you hate at first, but end up falling in love with.
        This was pretty inevitable that it would get a second season, but it’s confirmation was so fast. This is a first from Madhouse that don’t do sequels but Made in Abyss broke that trend. And from what I read in the manga, we are in for an even more exciting season 2 when it comes out. Fingers crossed that it comes out this year.

    Persona 5 the Animation

        The anime will follow the video game closely, about a rebellious group of teenagers in Tokyo who form the Phantom Thieves of Hearts to rebel against the corruption in the land, the protagonist will be named Ren Amamiya, different from the manga series where his name his Akira Kurusu.  Its coming out in spring of this year.
        When it comes to Persona anime, its never been really impressive but this was my favourite Persona game so am looking forward to the anime, but I have my doubts on how much will have to be cut out of the original material to fit into 24 episodes. Hope it comes out great but either way I get to see my favourite game animated so its a win for me either way.
       Hope you loved my list and would love to hear from you, if you think an anime should or shouldn’t have been added to the list,  I want to hear. Please remember to share and like us.

  • Getting glued on anime this season recommend by Yo! D101

    Getting glued on anime this season recommend by Yo! D101

     

     

     
       Hey everyone, it’s the holidays so what better time to curl up alone or with that special person or persons the couch and binge-watch a really good anime. And us at Yo! D101 have you covered this holiday, follow this recommendation and you will be laughing, crying or whatever emotion you want this holiday.

       With this, you don’t have to go online looking at recommendations, plots and all that. Right here is a list of anime that you will love no matter what you are into. Plus they aren’t like really long animes, like the 100 and something anime, so you can be done with them before the holiday is over.

       Here is the list, but not in any order of most interesting or anything like that. I am just listing them. They are ;

    • 3 gatsu no lion
    • Berserk
    • Boku no Hero Academia 
    • Hai to Gensou no Grimgar
    • Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo
    • ReZero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu
    • Terra Formars 
    • Tokyo Ghoul
    • Kizumonogatari
    • Sword of the Stranger
    • Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou
    • Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo
    • Akame ga Kill
    • Natsu no Taizai

    3 gatsu no lion 

     
       The series shows the everyday life of Rei, a 17-year-old professional shogi player, it takes place in Tokyo and if you have watched Honey and Clover, you will definitely like it.
     
       He lives a loner life, living by himself, estranged from his family and has basically a handful of friends. Among them is a family that keeps several cats, and which comprises of a young woman Akari Kawamoto, and younger sisters Hinata and Momo.
     
       The story shows how Rei develops as a person and shogi player and deepening his relationship with the Kawamoto sisters and others.
     
        Am going to binge-watch it myself this holiday, but I got this recommendation from my younger brother, he’s pretty knowledgeable about anime and I have been hearing a lot about this one. I have watched only one episode so far a visual quality really blew me away, it’s really good and shows promise. So taking a blind fate on this and recommending it even though I have not finished watching it myself.

    Berserk

     
      The story centres on Guts, a lone mercenary and Griffiths, a leader of the mercenary band -Band of the Hawk. You think Sasuke and Naruto rivalry was something, Griffiths and Guts take it to a whole new level. Really realistic and shows the good and evil humans are capable of, how society as become and so much more.
     
       Guts is a wandering mercenary who from his birth as been soaked in blood and war, born from a hanged corpse, adopted mother dies from the plague and adoptive father try to kill him, which forces Guts to kill him and this scars Guts even more.
     
      He meets Griffiths as he wonders and forced to join is a band of mercenaries, and he finds a home there and becomes friends with Griffiths. But he later decides to leave after hearing Griffiths saying he doesn’t consider anyone a real friend that follows someones dream and doesn’t have their own, and Griffiths has big plans.
     
       He joins the team again when Griffiths been captured and after a tough fight they rescue him, but Griffiths is a shadow of his former self, his body is completely broken. This is where the supernatural world is really explored now and by sacrificing the band of the hawk, he is revived better than ever.
     
        Casca and Guts the only survivors at the ceremony called the Eclipse, Guts swears revenge for the men and Casca whose a shadow of her former self. And the story begins of blood and rampage, but there are still moments in between that makes you laugh and smile.
     
        It really makes you understand everyone perspective, so you understand where the villains are coming from if you can really call them that sometimes. Because even sometimes in Guts fights, he can be questioned if he’s the good guy. Plus that big sword that Guts swings around is awesome and his prosthetic arm that as a cannon in it is awesome. And along the line, he gets an armour that shuts of the limiters in his body but slowly takes over if used for long and turns him into a raging Berserker, thing Bleach Ichigo’s Hollow mode. 
     
        Its really good but the manga is better and that’s only cause I feel the anime cuts so much out. But it should be noted it can be very graphic in its violence and sexual content.

    Boku no Hero Academia 

     
     
      At first, when I saw the hero think, I was a bit sceptical about it but I came back to watch it when I kept hearing good reviews about it and it really good. Some people have even speculated it the new “big anime” like the likes of Naruto, One-piece, Dragon Ball, Bleach and other really popular anime. Masashi Kishimoto the creator of Naruto has even said how he thinks it’s really good. And before Boruto came out to replace Naruto, some people thought it would fill the gap Naruto would leave.
     
      The story follows Izuku Midoriya, a boy born “Quirkless” meaning he as no powers, on this earth people with quirks, is the norm. So Izuku is bullied for standing out (being quirkless), even though all this, he still wants to be a superhero. And along he meets the world greatest hero All Might and he shares his quirk “One For All” with Izuku. Enrolling him into U.A. High School, a school that cultivates the next generation of superheroes and hero support teams. And like the intro says his story begins to tell us how he became the world’s greatest hero.

    Hai to Gensou no Grimgar 

     
       The story is about a group of people who suddenly find themselves in a fantasy world with no memory from before waking up in this new world, it shows their struggles to survive and make a life for themselves in this new world.
     
      Grimgar what can’t I say about it, am still waiting for a second season, it was really great and it wasn’t just focused on the gaming world element like most anime of this genre are. It talks about comradery, developing into a team and developing together but it doesn’t do it in a cheesy way. 
     
      You are really interested in learning more about the characters, following their story and by the time you are watching the last episode, you really don’t want it to end. I personally felt like a part of the team at the end of it, like this were people I wouldn’t mind being stuck in a fantasy world with and slay hoards of monsters with.

    Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo 

     
        After an untimely death, Kazuma Sato, a shut-in NEET, meets a goddess Aqua, who offers to reincarnate him in a new world, where he can live the MMORPG life of going on adventures, battling monsters and defeat the Devil King. He drags Aqua along with him against her wish, thinking she would be useful, but that idea is short-lived. They form a dysfunctional team of an explosion obsessed wizard and masochistic crusader 
     
       It’s a very good anime, part comedy and party fantasy, that will leave you laughing though out, around the end it gets a bit serious, and like in gaming fashion, a boss battle happens and you really enjoy the action and seriousness of the fight. 
     
       You really enjoy all the character quirky and wild character like;
     
      Darkness  is a crusader, whose a serious masochist, who if she has her way wants to be the tank of the party all the time, just so she can get her kicks😂😂😂, but that’s what she’s also really good for because she has zero accuracy so none of her good offensive attacks never connect. 
     
      Megumi is a wizard, who only uses one powerful spell that is very powerful but incapacitates her after one use. And she refuses to learn any other spell, so she can be useless too and loves food.
     
      Aqua is a goddess and archpriest in the new world and first companion of our hero. Her magical offensive abilities are basically useless, only shining when fighting against demons, the undead and even resurrect fallen companions. She spends most of her skill points on party tricks. She finds it difficult saving money and is usually broke.
     
      Kazuma Sato our main character who dies in a funny way and takes Aqua to this new world with him to punish her. And he’s not your usual shy MC, you would get in this situation, he can be very bold but sometimes become the shy MC, we are used to. And like he said he is an equalist, which means he is the type of guy who would hit a girl back if she hit him for no reason and he’s never holding back when punishing the girls when they do anything wrong. He chooses adventurer allowing him to learn various skills which he sometimes uses in pervy ways. He’s the one who can bring all of is crazy team members together and use them in a way, that the actual seem like good adventurers. 

    ReZero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu 

     
       Another main character appearing in another world, Subaru Natsuki coming out of a convenience store, suddenly finds himself in another world. Not knowing how he got here, he soon makes friend with a silver hair half-elf girl and her companion spirit Puck. Helping her look for her insignia that was stolen, when they are killed though, in their search for it, Subaru finds himself back at the beginning of his first day in the new world and realises he as an ability that reverses time when he dies. He uses this to protect himself, Emilia and all these new companions in this new world. 
     
        So expect to go on a roller coaster of adventures and when I first saw this anime, I was sceptical about it but it’s really worth the watch. Shows the measures the length a guy will go for a girl he loves and the people he takes dear and close to his heart. More of a serious tone, than comedy but it something you will love and won’t be able to wait till a third season comes out.

    Terra Formars 

     
       In an attempt to colonize Mars, scientists are tasked with terraforming the planet. They decide to seed the planet with a modified algae that absorb sunlight and purifies the atmosphere and cockroaches, whose corpses spread algae across the planet as they feed.
     
      After 500 years, the first manned ship to Mars lands and what the crew meet are giant mutated humanoid cockroaches with incredible physical strength and intelligence, they are killed by them, but not before they send a distress message warning earth. And this is where our story begins, turning humans to weapons by undergoing genetic modification with any organism to inherit their characteristics.
     
      I have written about Terra Formars before here is the link for that below;
     
      If you are a Starship Trooper fan, love space travel, transformations or battles with alien bugs, this is definitely for you and if you don’t it still as a lot to offer, like how a man handles issues with his cheating wife.

    Tokyo Ghoul 

     
        It is a world, where ghouls (people who can only survive by eating human flesh) live among normal humans, hiding their true nature to evade from the authorities tasked with hunting them down. Ghouls have enhanced speed, senses, regenerative ability, strength, are resistance to ordinary weapons and special organs called kagune that can be brought out in combat, so expect so insane fight scenes. 
     
        The story follows Ken Kaneki, a college student who survives a Ghoul by the name Rize Kamishiro, who he asked out on a date. At the hospital he is taken to, he undergoes an organ transplant with Rize, turning to a half Ghoul.  How does Kaneki handle this new life of being neither completely human or ghoul and the battle he faces against ghouls and the government authorities tasked with hunting ghouls. And how it changes him from a timid quiet boy to a complete badass.

    Kizumonogatari

     
      A high school student Koyomi Araragi, he befriends another student Tsubasa Hanekawa and she is an honour student. Tsubasa tells him about a rumour about a blonde vampire that has been sighted around their town recently. He encounters the rumoured vampire – kiss shot Acerola Orion Heart under the blade, in a pool of her own blood and all her four limbs cut off by three vampire hunters. He reluctantly at first ends up giving her his blood to save her, now he’s her vampire subordinate and he has to help her get all her limps back from the hunter, to restore her to full power and allow her to change him back to being human.
     
      It’s actually a 3 parts movie, but it really good and worth the watch.

    Sword of the Stranger 

     
       Another movie but a really good one and a really good sword fighting. Nanashi a nameless ronin, gets caught up in a struggle with swordsmen from the Ming Dynasty China when he agrees to take a boy Kotaro and his dog to a Buddhist temple. The reason behind the Ming swordsmen relentless pursuit unknown. A man haunted by memories of his past, which as made him avoid drawing his sword, will this be too much for him to handle.
     
       When it was over I was kind of wishing there was a part two of this, just to see how the surviving characters were doing.

    Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou 

     
         Thanks to his parents being transferred, Kazunari Usa a high school freshman, as to live on his own. His mother makes arrangements for him to stay at Kawai Complex, a boarding house that provides meals for its residents. Ritsu, a senior at his school that he likes also stays there with other weird and funny characters, like ;
     
      Shirosaki – a novelist and masochistic and sometimes wiser than he looks, roommate.
     
      Mayumi – a beautiful office lady who has terrible luck with men, drunk and a bit of a slob in the complex.
     
      Sayaka – a sly and man monger college student, who likes to be the centre of attention and former country town trouble maker in her village.
     
        Its never a dull moment in the Kawai Complex, as the series progresses we see Usa and Ritsu gradually become closer friends, it’s a really good slice of life, with lots of laughs, misunderstandings, tear, it ad that first love awkwardness you just love a, laugh and I really want a season two of this one so bad too.

    Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo 

     
     
     
      I watched this before Bokurawa Minna Kawaisou and it made me really love slice of life and so far I haven’t watched any anime to help me fill, this void this two anime as left.
     
      Sakura Dormitory is a dorm of the high school affiliated with Suimei University of the Arts, it’s home to the strangest, most troublesome students. After being kick out of the normal dorm for keeping stray cats, Sorata Kanda moves into the Sakura Dormitory. As he gets used to living in the dorm, he meets a world-famous artist Mashiro Shiina, who cannot even take care of her daily life, moves in. Sorata is kept in charge of taking care of her. Its tells us about their daily lives as they grow mentally and learn that no one is truly a genius without putting in the work.
     
      They are a lot of funny moments that will leave you, laughing like crazy, but there are still moments that really are emotional. It makes you go through a lot of the days of youth emotions. Then ends and you have grown attached to the characters, wondering how the future plays out for all of them and just wanting more.

    Akame ga Kill 

       
       The story follows Tatsumi who is a young villager that travels with his friends to the capital, to raise money for his home only to discover a strong corruption there. He is recruited into Night Raid and they fight against the Empire to end the corruption.
     
        It was really good but the manga had a better ending, but it’s definitely worth the watch.

    Natsu no Taizai

     
      The Seven Deadly Sins were an active group of knights in the region of Britannia,  who disbanded after a plot to overthrow the Liones Kingdom. Their supposed defeat came at the hands of the Holy Knights. Ten years later, the Holy Knights stage a coup d’etat and capture the king. The third princess, Elizabeth, starts out on a journey to find the Seven Deadly Sins and enlist their help to save the kingdom. 
     
      The fights were great, some say it like Fairy Tale but I don’t agree with that, its in a category of its own. Everyone in the group is badass, but they are not overpowered to not find certain fights difficult and some times they are the one standing as obstacles to each other. So I recommend you watch it, you won’t be disappointed.
