15 Demon Slayer (2019 - Present)

Animated By Ufotable & Based on the Manga By Koyoharu Gotouge

Remaining immensely popular from the time it originally released in 2019, Demon Slayer continues to be at the forefront of many anime fans list for a variety of reasons. Not only does it have absolutely stunning animation that contributes to explosively eye-catching fight scenes, but the heartfelt and gripping story is centered on one of the most genuinely kind and determined protagonists in the business.

Tanjiro's comion for his mortal enemies is positively infectious and witnessing his journey through the world of Demon Slayer is something of an emotional rollercoaster, complete with heartfelt highs and gut-wrenching lows.

14 Undead Unluck (2023 - Present)

Animated By David Production & Based on the Manga By Yoshifumi Tozuka

Another popular Weekly Shonen Jump adaptation, Undead Unluck burst onto the scene in October 2023, in time for Halloween. The premise is simple, yet uplifting, with protagonist Fuuko Izumo afflicted with a condition that causes others who touch her to have severely bad luck. However, she is juxtaposed with Andy, an undead character immune to physical harm and death.

The series immediately got a meaty two-cour run, meaning twenty-four episodes for fans to digest this supernatural comedy. Undead Unluck is part of the continuous massive push to adapt more Weekly Shonen Jump anime, so expect more to appear on the streaming service like this show. However, for now, it's ambiguous whether this series will get a second season.

13 One Piece (1999 - Present)

Animated By Toei Animation & Based on the Manga By Eiichiro Oda

For more than two decades, One Piece has been a staple for shonen fans. At its heart, it's an epic about following one's dreams and seeing the world alongside the most important people in one's life, forming bonds through the joy and the sorrow that will last a lifetime.

One Piece is packed to the brim with clashes that have its audience sitting on the edge of their seat, and with mysteries that are still making fans debate after twentyfive years. It's hysterical and heartwarming – and features an endless array of fascinating character designs in a dynamic and sprawling world.

12 Sailor Moon (1992 - 1997)

Animated By Toei Animation & Based on the Manga By Naoko Takeuchi

One of the defining classics in the magical girl genre, Sailor Moon, is available on Hulu in its original 90s form and shoujo fans who somehow haven't watched the anime should add it to their watch lists. With all the charm 90s anime has to offer, Sailor Moon takes viewers on a magical journey following the day-to-day life and remarkable adventures of Usagi and her friends as the Sailor Scouts.

There's mystery, romance, action, and the fundamentally essential element of the power of friendship. In spite of the trials that they experience, it truly feels like the Sailor Scouts are unstoppable as long as they have one another to count on.

11 Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead (2023 - Present)

Animated By Bug Films & Based on the Manga By Haro Aso & Kotaro Takata

Zom 100 is available on many streaming services, but it speaks to how essential the series became when it debuted its anime. This can be said either about Akira Tendo's regained joie de vivre or even through the performance, such as Zeno Robinson's electrifying English dub portrayal. The Zom 100 anime is a tour de force, all about zombies, and thriving instead of surviving.

While the series is marred by production issues for its first season, with newer studio Bug Films at the helm, it's still an essential new series from 2023. It features fantastic animation, hilarious comedy, and an important reminder to seize the day, like the world ends tomorrow. For now, fans can only hope for a season 2.

10 Spy x Family (2022 - Present)

Animated By Wit Studio & Cloverworks, Based on the Manga By Tatsuya Endo

Speaking of feel-good anime, Spy x Family is an absolute delight. Focusing primarily on the relationship between the Forger family, the series does a wonderful job maintaining a balance of the humorous and the wholehearted. Despite the tense espionage plot embedded into the story, it feels far more wholesome than anything else, though it does feature fantastically animated action sequences.

Seeing the day-to-day joy that Anya experiences with her new family, in her new life, making friends and the adorable antics that are her endeavors to assist Loid with his missions is, without a doubt, entirely heartwarming.

9 Ouran High School Host Club (2006)

Animated By & Based on the Manga By Bisco Hatori

When it comes to shoujo anime, Ouran High School Host Club is a mid-2000s classic. This series centers on the daily school life of Haruhi Fujioka, a high schooler who unwittingly becomes a member of the prestigious Ouran High School's Host Club in order to pay back a debt. Shenanigans inevitably ensue.

Haruhi's practical and down-to-earth nature makes her the perfect counterbalance to this series' quirky cast and their over-the-top ambitions. Anyone who enjoys a good filler episode trope will also love how this series makes use of such classic scenarios as, say, a beach episode.

8 Gangsta (2015)

Animated By Manglobe & Based on the Manga By Kohske

On the other side of the coin, Gangsta is an intense anime series that tackles many darker themes throughout. The series focuses on main characters Nic and Worick who decide to take in a woman with amnesia named Alex Benedetto.

As Alex begins to more about her past, viewers also learn more about the city of Ergastulum and the turbulence brewing among the city's other organizations of power. Gangsta's story is intriguing and emotional, its style distinct and memorable, and it features a diverse three-dimensional cast of characters.

7 Tiger & Bunny (2011)

Original Anime Series By Sunrise

Tiger & Bunny is a fantastic superhero anime that explores a world where superheroes are treated like celebrities. It features a lively cast of distinct heroes with unique abilities which culminates in exciting action sequences.

Tiger & Bunny explores the developing relationship between main characters Kotetsu Kaburagi and Barnaby Brooks Jr. while also shining the spotlight on the other heroes, helping to solidify the dimensionality of each character. There are a lot of charming and sincere character interactions, satisfying depictions of character growth, and an emphasis on discovering what it means to be a true hero.

6 Go! Go! Loser Ranger! (2024 - Present)

Animated By Yostar Pictures & Based on the Manga By Negi Haruba

Go! Go! Loser Ranger! is a stellar anime, a darkly subversive take on the Power Rangers and Super Sentai franchises, featuring a nameless henchman who rebels against the oppressive Dragon Keepers. It's an entertaining blend of anime pastiche from The Boys and a brilliant action anime in itself. The protagonist, Fighter D, soon learns he's in over his head.

With the Monster Army long defeated by the Dragon Keepers, they're largely kept alive as entertainment for the masses. However, while Fighter D begins acting out a personal vendetta against the Keepers, more powerful Monster Army remnants lurk in the background. The result soon becomes a pulse-pounding adventure for Fighter D and the allies he meets.
