1. Bleach

The anime "Bleach" follows the story of Ichigo Kurosaki, a teenager who becomes a soul reaper, similar to the Grim Reaper, after inheriting his parents' fate and learning from Rukia Kuchiki, another soul reaper. While the series is known for its humor, many people only watch the first episode and miss out on the excellent plot twists and character development throughout the soul society arc. Despite the series' significant amount of filler episodes, approximately forty percent, it remains one of the best anime in terms of dramatic storytelling and sword-fighting action. Don't let the filler episodes discourage you from binge-watching this fantastic series.

2. I want to eat your pancreas

"I Want to Eat Your Pancreas" is a heart-wrenching story of a high school boy who finds out that his classmate, Sakura Yamauchi, has a terminal illness. The film portrays their journey together as they learn more about each other and make the most of their limited time.

The animation is outstanding, and it's evident that a lot of effort went into making it visually stunning. The storyline isn't predictable, which was a pleasant surprise. Sakura's character is lovable and brings a sense of innocence and love to the movie. She teaches us valuable lessons about love and its ability to bring positivity to the world.

The movie has its moments of sadness and can bring tears to your eyes. While some scenes could have been shorter, overall, it was a beautifully crafted movie that is worth watching. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a touching and emotional story.

3. Tonikaku kawaii

Tonikaku Kawaii may not be the most exceptional romance anime out there, but it certainly stands out in its genuine and heartwarming portrayal of a loving relationship between the two main characters. The deep affection and reliance they share for each other make their bond all the more endearing to watch. It's refreshing to see the anime waste no time in bringing the couple together, instead of dragging it out until the final episode.

 The character development is impressive, and even the supporting characters are well-crafted, making it easy to invest in their stories. However, certain aspects of the plot, such as the significance of the protagonist's name and his aspiration to be an astronaut, as well as some unclear character backgrounds, leave some questions unanswered. Hopefully, these issues will be resolved in future seasons or in the source material, the manga.

Overall, Tonikaku Kawaii is one of the most enjoyable anime I have watched in a long time, and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys romantic anime, especially SOLO

4. Jujutsu Kaisen

Jujutsu Kaisen is a Shonen anime that lives up to the genre's reputation. From the beginning, the series shows promise with its unique plotline. It follows a boy who becomes cursed after swallowing a demon's finger and attends a school for shamans to exorcise himself. While the premise of hunting demons and spirits may not be new, the show executes it well and keeps the viewers engaged. The action scenes are fantastic, and the animation is top-notch. The characters are well-developed, and the initial opening and ending themes add to the overall appeal of the anime. The funk flavour of the tunes is noteworthy. Overall, Jujutsu Kaisen is a solid anime that's definitely worth watching for Shonen fans.

A pleasing and intriguing beginning It's hardly surprising that this anime is based on Weekly Shonen Jump. The magazine has frequently inspired manga adaptations that are worth watching.

Shonen fans should keep an eye out for this one. Thus far, he has not been disappointed. I'm looking forward to seeing Jujutsu Kaisen during its run.

5. Death Parade

The premise of Death Parade is intriguing, with the concept of a bar that judges souls after death. However, the show falls short of its potential due to its lackluster characters and underdeveloped world-building. While the opening theme is widely praised, the overall execution of the show leaves something to be desired. It has moments of thought-provoking commentary on life and death, but ultimately feels like a missed opportunity. Despite this, it still manages to be entertaining, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a quick and easy watch.

6. March comes like a lion

March Comes in Like a Lion is a slice-of-life anime that tackles mature themes like financial difficulties, loneliness, and depression through the story of a socially awkward 17-year-old orphaned shogi player named Rei. While the pacing is slow, the storytelling is full of emotions, and the animation is top-notch and complements the characters' feelings. The music and sound are also fantastic. The characters are complex and well-developed, making them some of the best in anime. I have watched both the dubbed and subbed versions of the first two seasons and enjoyed both, though I prefer the dubbed version. Overall, I'm excited to see where the story goes next for Rei.
