20-Sakamoto Desu Ga? ( Haven’t you heard? I’m Sakamuto?)

The bad thing about cartoons and anime is that it tries to define perfection on the basis of looks and this is what affects the mentality of youngsters to think that they need to be slim to be perfect. Sakamoto is one such example. He has a perfect body. He s the protagonist and whatever he does is just in a fabulous manner. Even though the things he does make no sense most of the time. It makes people find it weird yet live it and people also wonder what will they do next to make him look better. People just fall in love with Sakamoto. It’s actually a very relatable movie in which Sakamoto who is a very smart and perfect-looking kinda guy makes all girls fall in love with him and this makes the boys feel envious.

19-Deadman Wonderland

It is a very intriguing concept. In this, there is a prison and you can get candies bypassing the challenges. For fighting people use their own blood. So it’ll definitely be interesting to know about this battle. It has really beautiful music and people especially fall in love with Shiro’s songs. So if you are in the mood to watch some action this is the show for you and it also only has 12 episodes. In this, a young man is convicted of murdering his entire class and this leads him to learn how to survive in a mysterious jail.

18-Senyuu

No one is safe from Senyuu, especially troops. It has isekai comedy and some very satirical moments. It is mainly about people trying to defeat the demon by the hero that’s chosen by the king. It has a very incompetent protagonist and the sidekick is obviously very sadistic. It is definitely a very different show and its intro changes quite often.

17-I can’t understand what my Husband is saying

Even though it has two seasons but each episode is of only 3 minutes. It has a very basic plot about what happens when an Otaku marries a Non- Otaku. It has the cutest couple and is not even remotely like a tsundere type show. Like every couple, they also get into fights quite often and also into some really funny situations.

We have all watched Phineas and Ferb haven’t we? Well, this is how gives that vibe. It’s about a boy who finds his classes extremely boring. So he tries to find other methods to spend his time. With every new activity, he brings a lot of joy to the class. Sometimes he brings his pet into the class and also games like chess and shogi and the girl who sits next to her always get blamed for bringing the shenanigans.

It has many scenes with more than two protagonists and they are really fun to watch.

14-Ping Pong the animation

Well, who has not heard of the game of ping pong almost all of us are right. Well, whenever one sports anime gets released people immediately think that the show must revolve around the game only. Well, that’s not the case to fall in love with this show one does not need to focus on ping pong. This show is full of passion and has a coming-of-age story. Well, it also strives to attain the number one position. People tend to not want to watch this show because of the unorthodox art style as well as the animation. And trust me the ratings do not lie this show is actually amazing.

13-Baccano!

It is full of speed running like Game of Thrones but all in just one season. It consists of three extremely important plots and about a dozen of important characters. Since it is a story about America in the 1930s, people tend to find it confusing which character belongs to which mafia family. It has almost everything and is not just about the mafia it’s also about supernatural elements as well as gore and romance. The surprising thing is that all of it is in just 13 episodes. It is definitely worth a watch.

12-Another

It is one of my personal favorite animes as well as it is a horror anime with not that jump kind of scary moments but just an eerie atmosphere that never really changes. There is plenty of gore and can therefore not be watched with kids. The story is good although the real question is not that clear. And even if the story does not catches your attention that much then probably Misaki Mei will be enough to watch the show.

11-Grand Blue

It is definitely a show that will make you laugh till you cry. It’s about a group of boys who like getting drunk, naked, diving, and having a grand old time. If one is of legal age they can even drink along with them so it will definitely be fun. It is full of some very beautiful moments and even the landscape is just beautiful.

08-Ishuzoku Reviewers

People normally expect a show to have a good storyline or to have some good morals. But this show is the complete opposite. It is based on an adult story and contains many gore scenes.
