#	Anime Title	Score	Type	Progress	Premiered	Tags	Studios
1	Cat's Eye Add - More	-	TV	38 / 73	Summer 1983		Tokyo Movie Shinsha

2	K Add - More	-	TV	5 / 13	Fall 2012		GoHands

3	Shounan Bakusouzoku Add - More	-	OVA	4 / 12	Summer 1986		Toei Animation

4	00:08 Add - More	-	Movie	1	Spring 2014	Real amateurish animation, seems like a student art project rather than a proper production. There isn't really any story or substance to say so it would be harsh to rate.

5	1 Pound no Fukuin Add - More	6	OVA	1	Fall 1988	Glutenous boxer gets help from Catholic nun to get ready for his next fight. The animation has a cheap feel to it, and there a lot of dumb tropes, but it has its wholesome & funny moments. The live-action is okay too.	Gallop

6	100-man-nen Chikyuu no Tabi: Bander Book Add - More	6	TV Special	1	Summer 1978	Earthling raised on shapeshifters planet, hilarity ensues. Animation & sound have aged well considering how old it is, good mix of comedy & action. The story is batshit insane though, full of weird crap & nudity. Many of Tezuka's characters make a cameo.	Tezuka Productions

7	5-toubun no Hanayome Add - More	6	TV	12	Winter 2019	Typical harem anime, very stereotypical. Mc is bland, rude, & unlikable. On the plus there enough Red-headed waifus here to last you a lifetime. Probably deserves a 5 or lower, but Miku was such an adorable character I’ll bump it up to a 6.	Tezuka Productions

8	5-toubun no Hanayome ∬ Add - More	5	TV	12	Winter 2021	For supposedly the smartest guy in school, Fuutarou is too dense not to realize that all 5 of the quintuplets have a crush on him. Had some nice moments but too much melodrama. Change in art style didn’t help either. 1st season is better my opinion.	Bibury Animation Studios

9	A Kite Add - More	6	OVA	2	Winter 1998	For the record I saw the censored version, although this infamously violent anime is still very difficult to watch. Animation & sound impressive for when it was made. Definitely wouldn’t recommend, but at least I still somewhat respect its ambition.	Arms

10	A Viva Non Non Add - More	5	Music	1	Summer 2021	Weird avant-garde music video, the visuals didn’t really match up to the song, hard to tell what the story or message was. Not bad but not good either.	PERIMETRON

11	A.I.C.O. Incarnation Add - More	5	ONA	12	Winter 2018	Girl travels with outlaws in hope of stopping killer mutant. Nice animation & the music really builds up the suspense, yet the characters were mostly bland & the plot had too many dumb twist bordering on fully nonsensical. Ends on a good note though.	Bones

12	Aishang Ta de Liyou Add - More	5	ONA	22	Spring 2023	Love triangle in college, gave me strong Maison Ikkoku vibes. Nice production values & the theme song was catchy. The characters were so uninteresting and unsympathetic though, overuse of same music & repetitive dialogue. Disliked the final 2 episodes.	Red Dog Culture House

13	Akira Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 1988	Highly influential film, some of the most detailed & fluid cell animation you'll ever see. Ahead of its time both in imagery & themes, yet there is far too much gratuitous violence & the fast pacing can make it confusing if you haven't read the manga.	Tokyo Movie Shinsha

14	Alita De Shi Lian Add - More	6	ONA	1	Fall 2016	Nice music and fluid animation. The plot is anyone’s guess, I’ve seen it twice and I still don’t really understand it, something about a dragon, knight & girl. The dialogue was really confusing. Overly artsy but a good short watch overall.	Studio Tumble

15	Alita De Shui Gian Gushi Add - More	6	ONA	1	Summer 2019	Like the original has nice sound & art. Longer runtime, but I still have no idea what the plot is. Is this supposed to be a flashback, dream, alternate reality, nightmare? Who even is the main character? Seems like an experiment in existentialism.	Studio Tumble

16	Angel Beats! Add - More	6	TV	13	Spring 2010	Kids in afterlife do shenanigans together while they come to terms w/ their past lives & death. Lots of emotional moments, good themes, the music was great, just tarnished by the rushed story, out-of-place humor, and Maeda Jun's haphazard writing.	P.A. Works

17	Angel Beats! Specials Add - More	5	Special	2	Fall 2010	Two comedic extra episodes of Angel Beats! While it got a little laugh here & there for the most part it was just unneeded filler, and the comedy was my least favorite part of this series to begin with.	P.A. Works

18	Angel Cop Add - More	5	OVA	6	Summer 1989	Over the top 80s flick pitting super cops vs communists vs corrupt government vs dudes w/ super powers. The original dialogue is infamous for being nationalistic & anti-Semitic, the English dub has none of it but is so stupid it’s almost so-bad-its-good	D.A.S.T Corporation

19	Anju to Zushioumaru Add - More	4	Movie	1	Summer 1961	Good animation & production considering how early it was made, but the cheesy music, talking animals, & overly evil cartoonish villains made this feel like a cheap early Disney film. Might be too serious for kids but too goofy for adults.	Toei Animation

20	Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai. Add - More	9	TV	11	Spring 2011	Powerful story about dealing with loss. Some of the characters were annoying and the big secret reveal at the end was a bit underwhelming, but I would be lying if I denied I was in tears by the end.	A-1 Pictures

21	Ano Yume wo Nazotte Add - More	5	Music	1	Winter 2020	Decently average song & music video, not much else to say. The way the boy & girl’s face was animated was unintentionally creepy though.

22	Ao no 6-gou Add - More	4	OVA	4	Fall 1998	Gross overuse of CGI, which looked good when it was made in 90s but is dated now. Upbeat jazz music didn’t mesh with the somber tone, and the short runtime means it doesn’t adequately address it’s themes of environmentalism & morality.	Gonzo

23	Aoi Sekai no Chuushin de Add - More	3	TV Special	3	Fall 2012	A war between Sega & Nintendo characters seems like a decent idea, unfortunately this anime is ruined by brain-dead dialogue, unfunny sex jokes, dumb plot twists, infuriatingly stupid characters, forced fanservice, but above all its just boring.	Fifth Avenue

24	Aoki Honoo Add - More	2	OVA	1	Fall 1989	Sociopath manipulates and takes advantage of his classmates (especially the women) and suffers no consequences. All the females are so stupid it’s hard to feel bad for them though. Art & music passable for 80s, this is still despicably misogynistic.	Artland

25	Appleseed Add - More	6	OVA	1	Spring 1988	Very stereotypical 80s OVA with cheesy music & cyberpunk setting. Dealt with some philosophical themes of utopia & transhumanism, animation okay for the time. Plot had a few flaws, dialogue was pretty stupid. Entertaining for what it was.	Gainax

26	Arabian Night: Sindbad no Bouken Add - More	5	Movie	1	Spring 1962	Impressive animation considering how old it is. The English dub is hilariously bad, the dialogue and characters are flat & basic. Some bizarre stuff, I'm pretty sure swordfish don't eat whales & bats don't lay eggs. Still entertaining for what it was	Toei Animation

27	Area 88 Add - More	7	OVA	3	Winter 1985	Pilot is betrayed by friend & forced to fight in civil war. Good art & story, but the music was corny, dated portrayal of black people. The warplane dogfights were well done, didn't like the ending but it did touch upon the psychological aspects of war.	Pierrot

28	Argento Soma Add - More	7	TV	25	Fall 2000	Frankenstein + Iron Giant w/ strong overtones of Evangelion. A bit bizarre at times, and some of the characters were annoying, but while it’s slow paced it’s rewarding if you can make it to the end, has a surprisingly heartfelt conclusion.	Sunrise

29	Argento Soma: Hitori to Hitori Add - More	6	Special	1	Winter 2002	Extra episode focusing on Sue being stuck in Antarctica w/ an alien as well as her backstory. It’s not essential for viewing, and it does get a bit cheesy, but it’s a nice to see one of the side characters get some in-depth development.	Sunrise

30	Arion Add - More	5	Movie	1	Winter 1986	An anime take on Greek mythology, the animation & music have aged fantastically well, the story much less so. Plot is extremely haphazard & changes focus every 10 minutes, ending has many deus-ex-machina moments. Seneca was ok but I couldn't stand Arion.	Sunrise

31	Asatte Dance Add - More	2	OVA	2	Summer 1991	Unfunny old ecchi comedy featuring a nonsensical story, irresponsible unlikeable characters, unappealing fanservice. The substandard animation was okay in first episode, but downright hideous in second. Few amusing moments, aside that it's awful.	Knack Productions

32	Asience: Kami wa Onna no Inochi Add - More	-	CM	1	Winter 2007	Very nice art, seemed profound but in the end was just a shampoo commercial. Only 1 minute long so won't score.	Production I.G

33	Ayane-chan High Kick! Add - More	6	OVA	2	Winter 1997	Girl wants to be a professional wrestler but is drafted instead to be a kickboxer due to her talented kicks. Catchy music, nice mix of action & comedy. Characters rather generic, ends abruptly, but I really enjoyed it, would love to see expanded version.	Rikuentai

34	B'T X Add - More	4	TV	25	Spring 1996	Very generic 90s shounen w/ an irritating protagonist, lame fights, cheap animation, illogical worldbuilding, & stupid dialogue made worse by the awful dub. At least the main characters aren't overpowered, show improves slightly when Karen's onscreen.	TMS Entertainment

35	B'T X Neo Add - More	4	OVA	14	Summer 1997	Slightly better animation & story than season 1, but it's still mostly boring & nonsensical. The same flashback→fight→more flashbacks & dialogue formula again & again, underwhelming conclusion. Also why does the ed have to be of someone's bare butt?	TMS Entertainment

36	Bean Bandit Add - More	4	OVA	1	Winter 2021	I get that this is an independent production, but the animation & dialogue were well below standards. Only 11 minutes, and whatever story they were trying to tell didn’t go anywhere, characters were all annoying too.	Creators in Pack

37	Beautiful World Add - More	8	Music	1	Fall 2014	Nice music video. Personally I prefer the full song version. Haven't seen the movie but maybe I will after this.	Khara

38	Bikini Warriors Add - More	2	TV	12	Summer 2015	Stupid adventure spoof with some of the most insufferably idiotic characters and mindless fan service. The episodes are only 4 minutes long & it's meant to be parody, but that doesn't detract from what a waste of time this is.	feel., PRA

39	Black Lagoon Add - More	8	TV	12	Spring 2006	Very politically incorrect anime about kidnaped businessman adopted by pirates & their adventures. Revy mostly carries the show, but other characters are also good. Great English dub. Bit too nihilistic at times but some profound themes as well.	Madhouse

40	Black Magic M-66 Add - More	5	OVA	1	Spring 1987	Basically if terminator was an anime. The cheap animation and bland characters took away a lot of suspense the OVA was supposed to have. Some nice action scenes though. Alright for what it was, has that cheesy 80s style and flair.	AIC, animate Film

41	Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan Add - More	2	OVA	4	Winter 2005	Awful comedy of an angel killing a boy only to resurrect him. Hideous art, nonsensical story, annoying music, and really gross immature humor. Only very rarely funny. Would only recommend if you’re a sadist or to ppl who have humor of a 4 year old.	HAL Film Maker, Nomad

42	Boogiepop wa Warawanai Add - More	7	TV	12	Winter 2000	Creepy & cerebral avant-garde horror/mystery. Does a good job building suspense, very similar to SEL in many respects. The non-linear progression & often unreliable narrators can make it a confusing watch. Not great but an interesting viewing experience.	Madhouse

43	Bounen no Xamdou Add - More	7	ONA	26	Summer 2008	Eureka 7 mixed w/ Nausicaä & biopunk. Great production values and OST, I loved the character's designs & personalities, themes of war, religion, and identity. Still the story felt a bit off, rather haphazard writing & pacing tarnished it slightly for me.	Bones

44	Bounty Dog: Getsumen no Eve Add - More	4	OVA	2	Fall 1994	Convoluted story of the moon being settled, 3 spies going there to investigate corporation, w/ supernatural girls representing the light & dark sides of the moon. The real kicker is the ugly piss yellow color filter plastered over most of the runtime.	animate Film

45	Bu Si Bu Mie Add - More	4	ONA	16	Fall 2023	Demon afflicted dude tries to learn secret technique. Liked setting & music but animation looks like it's from cheap video game, mc kept provoking others to fight only to be saved last minute, other characters not much better. Lame cliffhanger ending.	Wonder Cat Animation

46	Bubble Add - More	5	ONA	1	Spring 2022	Good art & choreography. Characters a bit bland and the plot was a bit nonsensical. Some good ideas but overall the anime thought it was a lot more profound than it actually was. Romance rushed & cringy. For fans of parkour I’d recommend if not skip.	Wit Studio

47	Bubblegum Crisis Add - More	5	OVA	8	Winter 1987	4 women live double lives as vigilantes. Quintessentially of the 80s, the cheesy music didn’t mesh well with the tone, plot was fairly nonsensical. It does slightly get better in terms of production & story in later episodes, did have few good moments.	AIC, Artmic

48	Burn the Witch Add - More	6	ONA	3	Fall 2020	Alt-history of hunting dragons in London. Witty dialogue and Noel’s deadpan reaction to everything was funny, but most of the characters were just dumb and annoying. Runtime too limited for story to progress in a meaningful way, same universe as Bleach.	Studio Colorido, team Yamahitsuji

49	Burning Blood Add - More	5	OVA	3	Spring 1990	Talented trumpeter who sees red when enraged ditches music for boxing fight w/ rival. Cheap animation, constant still frames & repeated footage, nice character development but the promised fight doesn't even occur! Directed by Osamu Dezaki, has his style.	Magic Bus

50	Busou Renkin Add - More	5	TV	26	Fall 2006	A not-so-subtle rip off of FMA, along w/ most of the shonen tropes. Tokiko was okay but most of the other characters were bland. Some heartwarming & funny moments, but overall both the animation & story were rather unremarkable.	Xebec

51	Byousoku 5 Centimeter Add - More	7	Movie	3	Winter 2007	Amazing background art, realistic romance story. First third I'd give 10/10, second a 7/10, last one was disappointing, a 4/10. That averages out to 7/10 which I think is fair.	CoMix Wave Films

52	Byston Well Monogatari: Garzey no Tsubasa Add - More	4	OVA	3	Summer 1996	Probably deserves a 1/10 if even that, but is too unintentionally hilarious to be taken seriously. The English dub especially is awesomely bad.	J.C.Staff

53	Cardcaptor Sakura Add - More	7	TV	70	Spring 1998	Famous series in Mahou Shoujo genre, lots of cutesy carefree fun. Animation & music in the show have aged fantastically well, good cast of characters. That said the plot was bit repetitive, characters constantly simping over each other got annoying fast.	Madhouse

54	Charlotte Add - More	6	TV	13	Summer 2015	Sci-fi drama of kids with super powers working together. Nice animation & music. Story had potential, but there's an event halfway through that completely changes the tone and after that the plot twists come thick & fast. Madea Jun at his best & worst.	P.A. Works

55	Chinzei Hachirou Tametomo Add - More	6	ONA	1	Fall 2020	Short music video about the life of a samurai. The art was nice, wasn’t that big fan of the song though. Overall it’s fine, nice watch but nothing noteworthy.	Production I.G

56	Chirin no Suzu Add - More	6	Movie	1	Winter 1978	Don’t let the cutesy animation and Disneyesque ascetic fool you, this is a pretty dark & depressing movie about the loss of innocence and the damage hatred can inflict. It’s dated, and some parts drag on, overall though it's alright.	Sunrise

57	Chobits Add - More	6	TV	26	Spring 2002	Dude finds robot girl in trash, slowly she learns to feel emotions. Many wholesome & cute moments, but lots of contrived ones too. Somewhat tarnished by ecchi humor & rushed final 2 episodes. Still good themes on A.I., relationships, humanity.	Madhouse

58	Chocchan Monogatari Add - More	7	Movie	1	Winter 1996	Woman marries violinist and their struggle of raising & supporting family in the context of World War II. Runtime bit short so plot was somewhat rushed at times, kids could be annoying, but still has a heartfelt message, well done. A hidden gem.	Triangle Staff

59	Choujin Densetsu Urotsukidouji Add - More	4	OVA	3	Winter 1987	Saw the edited version, infamous anime about dude who is the choujin or the one who redeems/destroys the world. Full of rape and tentacles, for 80s smut the animation and production is actually well done, but it doesn’t detract how gross & stupid it is.	Phoenix Entertainment

60	Choujuu Kishin Dancougar Add - More	4	TV	38	Spring 1985	Aliens invade & humanity responds in the only way anime knows: giant robots. Their response to the apocalypse is pretty nonchalant lol. Animation is dated, but it does have some good moments. The characters were mostly irresponsible & dislikeable though.	Production Reed, Ashi Productions

61	Chouyaku Hyakuninisshu: Uta Koi. Add - More	6	TV	13	Summer 2012	An examination of the individuals of the Heian period & their romantic relationships through the lens of the poetry they wrote. Colorful unique animation, I found the characters mostly petty & annoying though. Still a interesting concept for an anime.	TYO Animations

62	Chrno Crusade Add - More	7	TV	24	Fall 2003	Nun w/ guns and demon friend fight against the devil. Very Christian inspired anime, enjoyed the Catholic themes & imagery. Ending rather sad & depressing. Plot a bit convoluted at times, and it's somewhat tarnished by out-of-place humor and fanservice.	Gonzo

63	Cider no You ni Kotoba ga Wakiagaru Add - More	7	Movie	1	Summer 2021	Unique art style and Ushio's soundtrack doesn't disappoint. The story itself though is predictable and it didn't feel as if the characters earned the dramatic ending.	Signal.MD, Sublimation

64	Clannad Add - More	7	TV	23	Fall 2007	Well known high school anime, slice-of-life, some great characters arcs and emotional moments. The animation & dialogue aren't the best though by KyoAni's standards, melodrama got old and while occasionally funny the comedy was mostly cringy.	Kyoto Animation

65	Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch Add - More	7	TV	25	Fall 2006	Dude gets mind control abilities & attempts to overthrow the world order. It’s a famous anime, feel really conflicted about it, some parts are brilliant other are absolutely stupid. The final few episodes were tragic & awesome though, raising it to 7.	Sunrise

66	Code-E Add - More	6	TV	12	Summer 2007	Girl emits electrical energy when she gets emotional. Chinami was cute w/ her little mishaps although it did get annoying after awhile, a lot of the characters were unbelievably dense. Nice op & ed, show ended right when story was getting interesting.	Studio Deen

67	COLORs Add - More	7	ONA	1	Winter 2023	Short of girl noticing pink-hair female classmate, who is really a cross-dressing boy, who is also a secret agent or something(?) Directed by Tetsurou Arai & music by Hiroyuki Sawano, confused what story is supposed to be but gorgeous animation & music.	Wit Studio

68	Coquelicot-zaka kara Add - More	7	Movie	1	Summer 2011	Great art, even for a Ghibli film, nice jazz music. Story was meh, didn't really care that much about the club house. Not profound but a nice and comfortable feel-good movie.	Studio Ghibli

69	Crying Freeman Add - More	2	OVA	6	Fall 1988	Women witnesses hitman who instead of killing her marries her. Even for cheap 80s OVAs the art is especially hideous, so much pointless blood & nudity. Plot makes no sense whatsoever. Some decent actions scenes but aside that it’s very skippable.	Toei Animation

70	Cyber City Oedo 808 Add - More	6	OVA	3	Spring 1990	Quintessential of 90s anime, dark cyberpunk dystopia. Animation & sound are excellent for the time, although the story gets a bit ridiculous, characters mostly amoral jerks. Not great, but if you’re a fan of cyberpunk it’s a must watch.	Madhouse

71	Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Add - More	4	ONA	10	Summer 2022	Dark cyberpunk dystopia. Characters were too unlikable for me to care what happened to them. Too much mindless sex and violence. Some important themes on human nature and transhumanism. Someone else might enjoy this, just wasn’t for me. See “more”	Trigger

72	Da Nao Tiangong Add - More	4	Movie	1		Chinese film from 60s about Monkey King causing havoc. The animation is excellent for the time, especially the bold colors & facial expressions, but the unlikable main character is incredibly obnoxious, rude, and suffers no consequences for his antics.	Shanghai Animation Film Studio

73	Da Wang Rao Ming Add - More	5	ONA	12	Fall 2021	Dude hit by truck somehow gains power the more he annoys people. Absolutely great animation for the OP & ED, but for the most part the show itself was lackluster. Comedic & sentimental moments didn't stick, Lü Shu was unpleasant & Lü Xiaoyu was annoying	Big Firebird Culture

74	Dalbitkungkwol Add - More	5	Movie	1	Summer 2016	Girl gets teleported to magic land to restore balance, feels like a Korean rip-off of Spirited Away at times. The rather awkward editing & dialogue didn’t help, but animation & music had its nice moments. Okay for kid’s film, just wasn’t my thing.

75	Darwin's Game Add - More	5	TV	11	Winter 2020	Cliche death game anime. Animation & music were rather mid, lots of leaps of logic & holes in the plot. Characters a mixed bag, lot of stupid decisions but Kashiwagi was cool, Kaname & Shuka were bit lame though, got little better as it progressed.	Nexus

76	Death Note Add - More	8	TV	37	Fall 2006	Well-known show, title self-explanatory. First 12 episodes were great, but the story does falter a bit in the second half. Not a big fan of the artstyle or music, second op was particularly irritating. Still in terms of suspense & drama it's really good	Madhouse

77	Deji Meets Girl Add - More	5	TV	12	Fall 2021	Supernatural adventure during summer in Okinawa. Nice art & music, the main duo had some chemistry, but the episodes are too short (just 2 minutes) and plot too disjointed for the story to really stick.	LIDENFILMS

78	Dennou Coil Add - More	8	TV	26	Spring 2007	Mystery about risks of virtual reality, gets more interesting with each new episode. Some unneeded filler halfway through & I wasn’t a fan of the animation style, but Dennou Coil manages to be kid-friendly yet also ominous. Ending confusing but nice.	Madhouse

79	Denshinbashira Elemi no Koi Add - More	5	Movie	1	Winter 2009	Can't believe I saw a film about a telephone poll falling in love with a utility worker. What's funny is that the film actually takes itself seriously. Personally not a fan of the claymation style, plot was very slow. Some aspects were well done though.	Sovat Theater

80	Di Gi Charat Add - More	6	TV	16	Fall 1999	Alien girls wanting to be idols go to Akibara only to be stuck working at a gaming store, hilarity ensues. Animation kind of bad & simplistic, same for characters, but the music is catchy and the comedy is endearing in a special dumb sort of way.	Madhouse

81	Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei Add - More	4	OVA	1	Winter 1987	80s horror flick of the school computer club summoning a demon. Animation decent for the time, though the music doesn't fit & the characters are mostly unlikable, confusing inconsistent plot. Still somewhat ironically enjoyable despite its stupidity.	animate Film

82	Dog Soldier Add - More	3	OVA	1	Fall 1989	Hilariously stupid Rambo rip-off, a nonsensical story about criminals, cold war, & the HIV/AIDS vaccine along w/ dumb characters, inconsistent animation, awful pacing. I did laugh a lot, but I also felt my brain cells withering while watching this shit.	J.C.Staff, animate Film

83	Dragon Ball Z Movie 04: Super Saiyajin da Son Gokuu Add - More	5	Movie	1	Winter 1991	I remember watching this when I was a kid, and even then I didn't think it was that good. Probably would give a lower rating if I saw it today but it's getting a 5 for now.	Toei Animation

84	Dragon Fist Add - More	3	OVA	1	Winter 1991	An overly melodramatic mess of a story about dragons, delinquents, and clones. It's just one stupid plot twists after another, the animation is also truly terrible, inconsistent & ugly to a level I've never seen. At least the music was decent.	Agent 21

85	Dragon Half Add - More	6	OVA	2	Winter 1993	Very nonsensical fantasy comedy of half-dragon girl Mink obsessed w/ pop star & dragon slaying Dick Saucer. Animation looks cheap & unfortunately cancelled after only 2 episodes, it is still rather hilarious and got plenty of laughs out of me.	Production I.G

86	Dragon's Heaven Add - More	7	OVA	1	Winter 1988	Robots battle in future Brazil. First 5 minuets were pointless, & the story was pretty simple, but the art is absolutely gorgeous, the music & characters added to the fun. The girl and robot somehow had great chemistry, left me feeling warm & fuzzy.	AIC, Artmic

87	Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka Add - More	3	TV	13	Spring 2015	Generic medieval fantasy, with bland characters, dialogue, and story and tries to fix it's problems with fanservice and forced sentimentality. Art and music were decent I guess. Aside from the fan service I can't understand why it's so popular.	J.C.Staff

88	D_Cide Traumerei the Animation Add - More	4	TV	13	Summer 2021	Wanted to like this, while the 3D CGI was sometimes ugly it's mostly okay, the fights were cool. Liked the swag in the clothing style. But this show has abysmal writing & dialogue, not helped by annoying characters, mishandles its serious societal themes.	SANZIGEN

89	ef: A Tale of Memories. Add - More	7	TV	12	Fall 2007	Following 6 youths & their interconnected romances. Has Shaft's signature inventive & surreal style, animation was nice, bit too slow and melodramatic at times for me. Lot like Clannad, maybe even better, the last episode was really beautiful.	Shaft

90	ef: A Tale of Memories. - Prologue Add - More	5	Special	1	Summer 2007	4-minute promo for the series released in advance. Some nice animation but confusingly edited together.	Shaft

91	Eiga Daisuki Pompo-san Add - More	8	Movie	1	Spring 2021	A movie about making a movie lol. Colorful animation, intriguing group of characters, fast-paced plot. A fun viewing experience, although the story gets bit ridiculous towards the end, bit rushed too. An anime for cinema nerds.	CLAP

92	Eiyuu Banka Koushi-den Add - More	5	TV Special	1	Fall 1995	Biographical film of Confucious by famed director Osamu Dezaki. I liked the attention to historical detail, nice music, but the pacing is too fast for any character moments to stick, too much exposition, dry presentation means some scenes really drag.

93	Elfen Lied Add - More	4	TV	13	Summer 2004	Watched it when I was younger and thought it was deep. Re-watched it during the pandemic and I am shocked that I ever liked this. Some deep themes, but overshadowed by the over-the-top violence and nudity.	Arms

94	Ergo Proxy Add - More	6	TV	23	Winter 2006	Deals w/ interesting philosophical concepts of gnosticism & relativism, first 3 episodes were great, but the show can’t make up its mind if it’s a mystery, adventure, SoL, or drama. Overly cryptic & pretentious at times, Pino was also really annoying.	Manglobe

95	Escaflowne Add - More	5	Movie	1	Spring 2000	Bizarre animation and hasty pacing. A blend of isekai/fantasy/mech/steampunk genres. The romantic sub-plot between Van & Hitomi is far too rushed, however the music was nice and there were some good thematic ideas.	Bones, Sunrise

96	Fire Tripper Add - More	6	OVA	1	Fall 1985	Early time travel mystery by Rumiko Takahashi. The art is dated and not great, and the first half was really slow, nonetheless you can see the influence in Takahashi’s later works and the whole time travel aspect/reveal was cleverly done.	Pierrot

97	FLCL Add - More	6	OVA	6	Spring 2000	Bored middle school boy, his clingy brother's ex-girlfriend, & manipulative pink-hair alien combine for the wackiest shit imaginable. Buried somewhere there's a coming-of-age story, lots of symbolism. Okay, but I found the characters hideously unlikable.	Gainax, Production I.G

98	Fumetsu no Anata e Add - More	8	TV	20	Spring 2021	Immortal shapeshifter meets people of different backgrounds & cultures pursued by supernatural foes. Themes of mortality, relationships, life's meaning. Real tearjerker as many characters die. Animation & story do regress somewhat as series progresses.	Brain's Base

99	Fuse: Teppou Musume no Torimonochou Add - More	6	Movie	1	Fall 2012	Alt-history of sister & brother hunting wolf/humans in Edo. I really liked the unique animation & color style, but the plot had way too many holes, inconsistencies, and the character drama was very forced. Intriguing but flawed, had good end message.	TMS Entertainment

100	Futari-bun no Shoumei Add - More	6	CM	1	Fall 2022	4 minute short of a boy & girl going through middle, high school, and finally college together and their evolving relationship. A bit of a ripoff of 5 centimeter-per-second, but nice for what it was.	Flat Studio

101	Fuuka Add - More	4	TV	12	Winter 2017	Highschool music drama. Like a lot of stuff based on Kōji Seo’s works this anime suffers from contrived coincidences, forced fanservice, and illogical love triangles. Declines rapidly in the last 4 episodes. The theme song was epic I’ll give it that.	Diomedéa

102	Gakuen Handsome Add - More	3	TV	12	Fall 2016	I get this is terrible on purpose, but I couldn't find it even ironically funny. Awful art, annoying music, nonsensical story, irritating voice acting, this was just plain bad.	Team YokkyuFuman

103	Ganbare Douki-chan Add - More	4	ONA	12	Summer 2021	So lazily written they didn't bother giving any characters names or even animating the guy's face. Plot: girl likes bland male coworker except all the other females like him too. Only saving grace: the episodes are mercifully short. Few funny scenes.	Atelier Pontdarc

104	Ganbare Douki-chan: Kakusa Shakai ni Nayamu Kaisha no Douki Add - More	-	Special	1	Fall 2021	See entry for main series	Atelier Pontdarc

105	Gantz Add - More	2	TV	13	Spring 2004	A nihilistic misanthropic turd of a show full of ville unlikable characters, bad art, and tries to fix it's problems with grotesque gore & nudity. Katou was a semi-decent character & the premise was okay, that's all that saves this from being a 1.	Gonzo

106	Ged Senki Add - More	5	Movie	1	Summer 2006	Goro Miyazaki’s take on Le Guin's novels, technically alright w/ decent animation & music. Fantasy world was intriguing, but there are a few pacing & plot issues, plus some of the protagonists are rather stupidest & dislikable. Overall okay.	Studio Ghibli

107	Geneshaft Add - More	5	TV	13	Spring 2001	Story had potential, an interesting mix of genetic-modification, aliens, & existentialism, but tarnished by haphazard story telling & silly characters. For its age mix of 2d & 3d animation well done, someone ordered too much electrical guitar music lol.	Satelight, Studio Gazelle

108	Ghost (Music) Add - More	6	Music	1	Spring 2021	Music video by vtuber Suisei, decent visuals & some nice guitar rifts. Alright song.

109	Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu Add - More	10	OVA	110	Winter 1988	The quintessential epic space opera. Has some flaws but compensates splendidly w/ its excellent writing & presentation. Awesome characters, great character development, political commentary, enthralling action, even some romance, this anime has it all.	K-Factory, Kitty Film Mitaka Studio

110	Ginga Reppuu Baxingar Add - More	3	TV	39	Summer 1982	Bunch of space motorcycle vigilantes go around bringing justice to the universe. The anime is so corny and the good guys are so invincible it gets fairly nonsensical. Writing was pretty bad. A predictable redundant plot, so yeah, I’d say skip this.	Kokusai Eigasha

111	Giniro no Kami no Agito Add - More	5	Movie	1	Winter 2006	Premise was interesting, music & animation was nice, although the 3D models sometimes clashed with the art. Plot was all over the place, one random scene after the other, character interactions bit awkward. Ghibli films did the environmental theme better.	Gonzo

112	Grappler Baki Add - More	6	OVA	1	Summer 1994	Pretty ridiculous short of Baki fighting in a karate tournament. Animation looks dated, story nonsensical, all a bit absurd with First of the North Star vibes, but still plenty of fun. The over-the-top dub is just the cherry on top.	Knack Productions

113	Green Legend Ran Add - More	5	OVA	3	Fall 1992	Peculiar OVA, tries to encompass themes of romance, betrayal, environmentalism & religion. Clearly had small budget; cheap animation & limited runtime. That plus the abrupt ending makes it feel disjointed. Still I respect the ambition its creators had.	AIC

114	Guai Xiang Shou Add - More	4	ONA	8	Summer 2024	Typical isekai of boy being sucked into fantasy world. Few good action scenes, nice music, colorful art but animation itself was rather substandard, bad pacing, overly wimpy mc, and while it's supposed to be a comedy I don't think I laughed even once.

115	Gyokou no Nikuko-chan Add - More	6	Movie	1	Spring 2021	Nice animation & music. Way too much exposition from Kikuko, who at times came off as whinny, titular character Nikuko bit too obnoxious. Some weird character facial expressions too. Still it was a decent film and the ending was good.	Studio 4°C

116	Haguregumo Add - More	5	Movie	1	Spring 1982	Gorgeous animation, nice art & color pallet, the few fight scenes were well done. That said the titular main character is a lazy asshole, constantly cheating on his wife & neglecting his children. Other characters not much better, feel sorry for the wife.	Madhouse, Toei Animation

117	Haibane Renmei Add - More	8	TV	13	Fall 2002	Hard to describe this anime, a journey of rebirth, forgiveness, sin, life & death, that asks many philosophical questions but largely leaves them to the viewer to answer. Plot little slow at times, but Reki & Rakka's development was a joy to watch.	Radix

118	Hakubo Add - More	6	Movie	1	Spring 2019	The background art and sound was good, but the characters were paper thin and the plot and pacing was awkward. Way too much exposition, and the film never really addresses the theme of the earthquake. Despite all of that I still somewhat enjoyed it.	Twilight Studio

119	Hakujaden Add - More	5	Movie	1	Fall 1958	Historic film based on Chinese folklore, apparently first colored anime feature. Animation has some nice moments, but the overabundance of narration, bland characters, and awkward voice acting weigh it down. Personally found it somewhat boring.	Toei Animation

120	Hakushaku to Yousei Add - More	5	TV	12	Fall 2008	Very shoujo anime of fairy doctor forced to team up w/ pseudo-nobleman. Liked the Victorian setting & art style, was confused by the story though, haphazard plot keeps changing focus, pacing all over the place. Couldn't stand Edgar, manipulative bastard.	Artland

121	Hametsu no Mars Add - More	1	OVA	1	Summer 2005	Truly terrible, 20+ minutes of my life I will never get back. Awful animation, story, sound, and one of the dumbest twist endings ever.	WAO World

122	Hanamaru Youchien Add - More	6	TV	12	Winter 2010	Girl in kindergarten has a crush on her teacher, yes it is as stupid as it sounds. The character designs and art was nice, but as with most Gainax anime the last episode was a letdown. EDs were good. Yeah cute and kawaii, but aside that not much else.	Gainax

123	Hanappe Bazooka Add - More	1	OVA	1	Summer 1992	Terrible ecchi comedy of a loser accidentally summons demons who give him superpowers. Not funny, the art is hideous and inconsistent, characters all suck, and it keeps playing rape off as a joke. I get its ridiculous on purpose, but still it’s dreadful	Studio Signal

124	Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora Add - More	6	TV	6	Winter 2006	Boy meets terminally ill girl in hospital. Has it's sentimental moments, but far too much unneeded comedy. Dr. Natsume is one of the biggest assholes in anime. Nice op & ed. Still good but could have been so much better. Final scene was beautiful.	Group TAC

125	Happy Sugar Life Add - More	6	TV	12	Summer 2018	Disturbing tale of kidnapping, murder, & deeply disturbed characters pursuing their version of "love". Meh animation, it does deal with themes of psychopathy, cycle of abuse, Stockholm syndrome etc. Disliked the finale, a depressing but interesting watch	Ezόla

126	Harmony Add - More	5	Movie	1	Fall 2015	Feel conflicted, a philosophical outlook on the meaning on freewill & utopia in the context of a female detective investigating mass suicides. Nice themes, but the pacing is super slow & depressing, overuse of CGI, didn't care for characters esp Miach.	Studio 4°C

127	Hataraku Maou-sama! Add - More	7	TV	13	Spring 2013	Satan & entourage get trapped on earth & working at McDonalds. Characters bit formulaic, was uncomfortable how much Chiho was sexualized. Still as someone who spent far too much time working in retail I liked to story, the op is fantastic.	White Fox

128	Hayou no Tsurugi: Shikkoku no Mashou Add - More	5	OVA	2	Fall 1992	Typical fantasy tale, women uses magic sword to slay demons. Felt like a setup for a season that never happened, concludes pretty open ended. Not sure where to rate, nothing really bad or good.	Magic Bus

129	Heike Monogatari Add - More	7	TV	11	Winter 2022	Classic Japanese tale of the Taira clan brought to life by Yamada’s directing and Ushio’s soundtrack. As a history nerd I really wanted to like it, and for the most part I did, but the unexplained time progression & confusing plot really drag it down.	Science SARU

130	Hello World Add - More	5	Movie	1	Summer 2019	Time-travel romance, music & colorful art was nice, although I wasn’t a fan of the overuse of janky CGI. The 2nd half really lost me, a confusing mush of alternate reality, quantum mechanics, and time travel. It did have good moments, just not my thing.	Graphinica

131	Hibike! Euphonium Add - More	8	TV	13	Spring 2015	High school band aims to reach nationals w/ all the hardship & practice that takes. Impressive production by KyoAni, fantastic animation, sound, music, voice acting, & character development. Slightly tarnished by the unneeded melodrama & yuri bait.	Kyoto Animation

132	Hibike! Euphonium: Kakedasu Monaka Add - More	6	Special	1	Fall 2015	Extra episode to season 1 following the behind-the-scenes activities by the students who didn't make the final cut for the band, especially Hazuki. Cute episode but doesn't really add anything to the story.	Kyoto Animation

133	High School DxD Add - More	5	TV	12	Winter 2012	Quintessential ecchi anime, made for perverts w/ a pervert as the main character. Unbelievably degenerate but the show’s at least self-aware of how lewd & stupid it is. Hate to admit it, but I somewhat enjoyed the characters & story, raising it to 5.	TNK

134	Himegoto Add - More	3	TV	13	Summer 2014	Stupid highschool cross-dressing anime where our unfortunate protagonist is forced to dress in drag all day. One or two mildly funny moments, but the rest of the time the same stupid joke over & over again. Waste of time.	Asahi Production

135	Hirune Hime: Shiranai Watashi no Monogatari Add - More	6	Movie	1	Winter 2017	Odd film about dreams, the 2020 Olympics & self-driving cars. Good animation & music, confusing story, just one random scene after another, the ending even had the characters bewildered. Saw it w/ family and they seemed to like it.	Signal.MD

136	Hitsuji no Uta Add - More	4	OVA	4	Spring 2003	Boy learns that he & his family are vampires. You can tell it has a cheap budget, inconsistent animation & bizarre editing. The music did a good job of building up suspense, but nothing really happens. Supposedly a horror, but too boring.	Madhouse

137	Holy Knight Add - More	4	OVA	2	Winter 2012	Big storyline stuffed in only 2 episodes, decent animation but it's hilarious how badly it's paced, dub not great either. Your standard ecchi show of bland mc meeting hot vampire girl in magic school; seems like a pilot for a show that was never made.	Lyrics

138	Honobono Log Add - More	6	TV	10	Spring 2016	2 minute episodes about couples' everyday lives. Rather low production value, but it's still a comfy & cute feel-good watch.	Fanworks

139	Horimiya Add - More	6	TV	13	Winter 2021	Really enjoyed the art style & op song, gave me strong "His & Her Circumstances" vibes. Liked the character interactions, but second half was rushed & unfocused, there's a real lack of genuine development in any of the characters or their relationships.	CloverWorks

140	Hoshi no Koe Add - More	7	OVA	1	Winter 2002	Great background art, although much of the actual animation is rather unpolished. Given this is a passion project by Shinkai the flaws are forgivable, can see the inspiration for his future works. Short but still has an emotional & relevant message.	CoMix Wave Films

141	Hoshi wo Ou Kodomo Add - More	7	Movie	1	Spring 2011	Shinkai's artwork is fantastic, and the story kept me on my toes the whole time. Too much of this feels like a copy of Ghibli though, & the plot makes less sense the more you think about it.	CoMix Wave Films

142	Hoshizora Kiseki Add - More	4	ONA	1	Summer 2006	A bizarre astronomy/sci-fi/romance flick, the incredibly fast pace & confusing plot as well as the annoying characters tarnished it for me. Animation was inconsistent, swung from decent to bad, some interesting concepts but too short to deliver on them.	CoMix Wave Films

143	Hotaru no Haka Add - More	7	Movie	1	Spring 1988	Infamously sad film of 2 siblings in the aftermath of WW II. Isao Takahata's magnum opus, makes great use of imagery & sound to highlight themes of war & youth, however I found the pacing awkward, and Seita & his aunt were stubborn & utterly unlikable.	Studio Ghibli

144	Hotarubi no Mori e Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 2011	Fresh and unique supernatural romance. Only 40 minuets, could’ve been longer but still packs an emotional punch. Not the biggest fan of how it ended but still pretty good for what it was suppose to be.	Brain's Base

145	Howl no Ugoku Shiro Add - More	6	Movie	1	Fall 2004	Nice animation & music, one of Ghibli’s more imaginative works but also one of its most unfocused. The tone’s real inconsistent; film can’t make up its mind if it’s a anti-war film, romance, or adventure. Didn’t care for Sophie, young or old.	Studio Ghibli

146	Hula Fulla Dance Add - More	5	Movie	1	Fall 2021	Girl pursues passion for hula dancing inspired by late sister. Unique concept, animation okay but CGI stood out during the dance scenes, pacing was haphazard at best w/ many odd shifts in tone & story. Overall okay, Ohana's voice was unbearable though.	Bandai Namco Pictures

147	Hunter x Hunter (2011) Add - More	9	TV	148	Fall 2011	Really fun, the varied caste of characters and compelling plot twists kept the series interesting the whole time. It seemed each arch was better than the last. Some unneeded fan-service and filler but aside that it was great.	Madhouse

148	I'm Your Treasure Box: Anata wa Marine Senchou wo Takarabako kara Mitsuketa. Add - More	4	Music	1	Summer 2022	A dumb ecchi vtuber song about a euphemistic treasure box. The music wasn't that good, visuals bit disturbing.

149	Id:Invaded Add - More	7	TV	13	Winter 2020	Detectives dive into criminal’s consciousness to solve crimes. Wasn’t a big fan of the art style & music, if you’re paying attention the identity of the big bad is obvious by ep 5. Still the show had plenty of exciting twists & turns would recommend	NAZ

150	Igano Kabamaru Add - More	6	TV	24	Fall 1983	Wacky comedy of food-obsessed ill-mannered boy trained as a ninja going to school. Pretty funny but also had some stupid plot twists. Mai was cute though. For some reason this anime is popular in Greece. Also has Hitler playing baseball for some reason.	Group TAC

151	III Add - More	5	Music	1	Spring 2024	Nice beat and animation, but the singer's voices are too high pitched and annoying, especially Marine's.

152	Iketeru Futari Add - More	4	TV	16	Winter 1999	Extremely perverted dude is obsessed w/ Rei Ayanami lookalike who hates him. Rather stupid & lame ecchi comedy, the art & production are pretty bad, but there were some funny moments, and the opening song is really catchy.	J.C.Staff

153	Ima, Soko ni Iru Boku Add - More	7	TV	13	Fall 1999	Lighthearted first episode lulls you into false security before being isekaied into one of the most brutal & depressing anime worlds. The irrationally optimistic protagonist got on my nerves, I have mixed feelings about the ending. Very sad & tragic.	AIC

154	Interlude Add - More	4	OVA	3	Winter 2004	Decent premise of living in an alternate reality, but for what was supposed to be a drama/horror was ruined but the out-of-place music, random ecchi scenes, and confusing nonsensical plot. More unintentionally funny & boring than scary.	Toei Animation

155	Inuyashiki Add - More	4	TV	11	Fall 2017	Deals with relevant ideas & themes but too intentionally dark and nihilistic for me to care. Shishigami is a despicable psychopath and the mini-redemption they tried to pull at the end didn’t sit well with me at all. Reminds me of edgy U.S. cartoons.	MAPPA

156	Iria: Zeiram The Animation Add - More	8	OVA	6	Spring 1994	Fighting indestructible monster across space. I was actually rather pleasantly surprised by this, Iria is a great dynamic protagonist, and Zeiram is a truly horrifying villain. Music and animation way ahead for the time.	Ashi Productions

157	Isekai Meikyuu de Harem wo Add - More	2	TV	12	Summer 2022	Incel gets isekaied to fantasy world, where he murders a bunch of ppl so he can purchase a dog/human slave, whom he forces to pleasure him for rest of the series. Characters sucked, story was boring, music was ass, it’s just despicable wish fulfillment.	Passione

158	Isekai Meikyuu de Harem wo Specials Add - More	1	Special	2	Fall 2022	Didn't think this series could possibly get any worse but it somehow did, 2 episodes of Michio straight up raping Roxanne.	Passione

159	Itoshi no Betty Mamonogatari Add - More	2	Movie	1	Summer 1986	Borderline hentai of world's dumbest yakuza member falling for blond witch w/ skeleton grandma trying to assassinate demon. So wack it's almost entertaining, had me going WTF often, awful animation, story, characters, but at least the music was catchy.

160	Jigokuraku Add - More	5	TV	13	Spring 2023	Samurai & criminals pair together to find elixir on supernatural island. Good animation & characters designs, interesting plot twists, but the largely unlikable cast, illogical abundance of nudity & gore, and story inconsistencies tarnished it for me.	MAPPA

161	Johari Add - More	5	Music	1	Spring 2024	Kinda average music video, rather unnoteworthy. The overly flashing animation & repetitive staccato singing got old fast, but the dance moves were nice.	Production HASU

162	Josee to Tora to Sakana-tachi Add - More	6	Movie	1	Fall 2020	Animation & music were top notch, Tsuneo is a decent character, I really related to his struggles. Josee though was one of the bitchiest unlikable characters ever, nearly ruined the film. It did have a heartfelt message on disability, just wasn’t for me	Bones

163	Jujutsu Kaisen Add - More	6	TV	24	Fall 2020	Well-known anime. Awesome fight scenes & animation, but the grotesque violence mixes poorly with the childish humor, plus the overabundance of flashbacks, simplistic take on morality, and cliché story leave this as a rather generic shonen action show.	MAPPA

164	Jujutsu Kaisen 0 Movie Add - More	6	Movie	1	Fall 2021	Prequel to the main series, animation & music well done, nice that the side characters got some screen time. Overuse of dialogue & flashbacks though, felt at times like inconsequential filler, at least it had a happy ending.	MAPPA

165	Kaguya-hime no Monogatari Add - More	7	Movie	1	Fall 2013	Based on a Japanese folktale. The hand painted art style is amazing, I like the setting of medieval Japan. The pacing is slow though, and the runtime a bit excessive. Still good but not the masterpiece people make it out to be.	Studio Ghibli

166	Kaiba Add - More	8	TV	12	Spring 2008	Very experimental/avant-garde show that despite its goofy art style still manages to tackle themes of transhumanism, identity, memories & classism. Story is convoluted, finale is bizarre, but some great character moments & awesome music.	Madhouse

167	Kaizoku Oujo Add - More	5	TV	12	Fall 2021	Excellent production, the animation is gorgeous and the op is one of the best. Unfortunately it’s wasted on a show with inconsistent tone & plot, and filled with unlikable characters, including the useless heroine. Evangelionesque twist ending was dumb.	Production I.G

168	Kamiarizuki no Kodomo Add - More	7	Movie	1	Fall 2021	Girl overcoming the loss of her mom by running supernatural race. The music & animation was nice, though I wasn’t crazy about the character designs or personalities, as well as overabundance of exposition. Still it had a heartfelt message, it’s good.	LIDENFILMS

169	Kao Ni La Zhanshen Xitong Add - More	5	ONA	16	Summer 2022	Typical kids at magic school, world building & power system bit silly. Art sometimes good sometimes bad, comedy bit hit-or-miss too: hilarious at times but mostly cringy. W/ exception of Xiaolan most of the characters (esp An Lin) are dumb & annoying.	Chongzhuo Animation

170	Karakuri no Kimi Add - More	5	OVA	1	Winter 2000	Clueless princess who fights w/ puppets goes after family killer with aid of ninja. Some nice fight scenes but tarnished by stupid (and I mean STUPID!) plot twists & the ugly character designs, forced fanservice. Runtime too short to fully explore story.	TMS Entertainment

171	Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou Add - More	9	TV	26	Fall 1998	90s romcom which despite its low budget makes up w/ some of the funniest visual gags & great character development. Gainax did run out of money eventually & last few episodes are terrible. Still I really loved it, would prefer it over any modern romance.	Gainax, J.C.Staff

172	Katsudou Shashin Add - More	-	Movie	1		Apparently this is the first anime ever made, in the early 20th century. Only 3 seconds long, not going to rate.

173	Kaze no Na wa Amnesia Add - More	4	Movie	1	Fall 1990	Bizarre post-apocalyptic film about everyone losing their memories. Asks some interesting philosophical questions, but the inconsistent tone, rushed finale, and random sex scene really weigh it down. Someone else might appreciate it but not me.	Madhouse

174	Kaze no Stigma Add - More	5	TV	24	Spring 2007	Generic shounen action show, generic character designs & pretty lackluster fights. The last arc was actually interesting but aside from that it was average fare. Character dynamic was alright, Ayano was cute but also unbearably annoying at times.	Gonzo

175	Kaze no Tani no Nausicaä Add - More	8	Movie	1	Winter 1984	Beautifully realized fantasy world, despite it’s age the animation holds up exceptionally. Tackles themes of war, environmentalism, & colonialism. There are a bunch of plot contrivances & Nausicaä is a bit idealistic. Film helped found Studio Ghibli.	Topcraft

176	Kaze Tachinu Add - More	7	Movie	1	Summer 2013	Miyazaki puts his love for planes & political views front & center w/ this historical biopic. Gorgeous animation & sound on par w/ Ghibli's best, but man did the story drag at times, bit tonally inconsistent as well.	Studio Ghibli

177	Kaze to Ki no Uta Sanctus: Sei Naru Kana Add - More	5	OVA	1	Fall 1987	BL drama at historical French prep school. The animation is actually quite nice given its age, but adapting a 17 volume manga was always a tough task, not a fan of all the flashbacks & exposition. Also I couldn't stand characters of Gilbert & Pascal.	Triangle Staff

178	Kazemakase Tsukikage Ran Add - More	7	TV	13	Winter 2000	Fun episodic series of badass but alcoholic female samurai & klutz Chinese martial artists going around bringing justice & wreaking havoc. Fight scenes were well done, comedy bit hit-or-miss, wavered a bit in finale episodes but still enjoyable.	Madhouse

179	Kemono Jihen Add - More	6	TV	12	Winter 2021	Stereotypical shounen action, kids w/ superpowers running around solving missions. Pretty standard in most regards but there were enough interesting moments & characters to make it a decent watch. Kabane & Shiki were cool, but Akira was beyond useless.	Ajia-do

180	Kentauros no Densetsu Add - More	5	OVA	1	Fall 1987	Bikers vie for lady not interested in either of them. Art decent for period, music okay but got annoying after a while. Ken was a incredibly unlikable protagonist, overabundance of fanservice. Still the finale was good, recommend if you like motorcycles.	Wako Productions

181	Kidou Senshi Gundam Add - More	6	TV	43	Spring 1979	Classic early mech show. The plot gets a little nonsensical and the goofy music doesn’t mesh well with the violence, but the anime does a good job exposing the horror of war. Char is one of the smartest and more stylish anime villains.	Sunrise

182	Kidou Senshi Gundam: Dai 08 MS Shoutai Add - More	7	OVA	12	Winter 1996	Classic Feds vs Zeon storyline but now on earth w/ a Romeo & Juliet undertone. Great animation & music for the 90s, endearing caste of characters. The ecchi humor annoyed me though, & while episodes 10 & 11 were awesome 5 & 12 were a huge waste of time.	Sunrise

183	Kimetsu no Yaiba Add - More	6	TV	26	Spring 2019	Amazing animation, the story itself is a bit too conventional to the shonen tropes, hopefully a sign of better things to come. Tanjiro is a decent character, but Zenitsu and Inosuke were unbearably annoying.	ufotable

184	Kimetsu no Yaiba: Mugen Ressha-hen Add - More	6	TV	7	Fall 2021	As w/ the first season the production is excellent, great animation & music. However, the same issues also persists & not enough time to connect to Rengoku. Aside from the first episode everything is covered in the film, so it all feels a bit unnecessary.	ufotable

185	Kimi dake ni Motetainda. Add - More	4	Movie	1	Fall 2019	Nonsensical reverse harem of 5 guys vying for who wins the most handsome award & trying to woo dumb rich girl who lost family wealth on scam. Art style & animation rather substandard, bland characters, runtime too short, somewhat unintentionally funny.	Signal.MD

186	Kimi no Iru Machi Add - More	4	TV	12	Summer 2013	Typical love polygon show, protagonist has like 4 girls eyeing him. Had some good moments, but the random time skips and flashbacks, constant contrived coincidences, frustrating mc, and average animation weighed it down. Original OVA was a lot better.	Gonzo

187	Kimi no Iru Machi OVA Add - More	5	OVA	2	Winter 2014	First episode deals with Akari’s backstory, the second episode w/ Rin. It still has all the stupid romance clichés that plagued the main series, but the characters were somewhat more tolerable & the music was nice. It’s alright, cameo of Fuuka.	Gonzo

188	Kimi no Iru Machi: Tasogare Kousaten Add - More	6	OVA	2	Winter 2012	Boy on school trip in Tokyo tries to meetup w/ his childhood sweetheart. Art was simpler than the main series but better done in my opinion. Grouping scene in the 1st episode and bathhouse in the 2nd were unneeded, but the sentimental moments still hit.	Tatsunoko Production

189	Kimi no Na wa. Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 2016	Visually stunning, the music's good too, can see why it's so popular. Wish there was a little more character development, the twists and turns in the story were enjoyable though. Personally I prefer "Tenki no Ko" as my favorite Shinkai film.	CoMix Wave Films

190	Kimi no Suizou wo Tabetai Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 2018	A real tearjerker, tells you exactly how it will end in the beginning yet it still manages to shock you. Some of the character interactions were cringy, final few scenes could’ve been better. Still has poignant message on mortality & meaning of life.	Studio VOLN

191	Kimitachi wa Dou Ikiru ka Add - More	6	Movie	1	Summer 2023	Great art & music, probably Miyazaki's last film. The theme of coming to terms w/ loss was important, but too often felt like a copy of previous Ghibli films, Mahito was a rather bland protagonist. Too esoteric for its own good.	Studio Ghibli

192	Kirakira Kirari Add - More	6	ONA	1	Winter 2022	Introverted girl gets imaginary friend who helps her open up. Only 10 minutes but managed to tell a concise story. The music was a bit too cheery for the somewhat somber tone, but for a kids show it was still good.	Lesprit

193	Kirara Add - More	5	OVA	1	Summer 2000	Girl dies on her wedding day, her ghost goes back in time and messes up relationship w/ boyfriend & past self. Decent premise, but the rushed plot & awkward pacing means the anime doesn’t fully deliver. Art & music done well given when it came out.	Ashi Productions

194	Kite Liberator Add - More	5	OVA	1	Winter 2008	Sequel to Kite in name only, weird sci-fi whose plot goes all over the place. Monaka is nowhere near as iconic as Sawa was, some nice animation & music although the camera was unnecessarily shaky at times. Not necessarily bad, just bland & uninspiring.	Arms

195	Kodomo no Omocha (TV) Add - More	8	TV	102	Spring 1996	Laura Bailey's performance as Sana & the awesome dub really carry this goofy shoujo series, although it has plenty of serious moments as well, touches on important themes. Does decline a bit in the second half, some cringy filler episodes and arcs.	Gallop

196	Koe no Katachi Add - More	10	Movie	1	Summer 2016	By far the best film I've ever seen. Is a bit overambitious in adapting the source material, but is well directed, and has an amazing soundtrack. Handles with grace topics such as suicide and depression. A awesome and emotional ending to cap it off.	Kyoto Animation

197	Koe no Katachi Specials Add - More	8	Special	2	Spring 2017	Basically just two AMVs with some original animation. I still liked it a lot though, the second song especially is my favorite of the whole soundtrack, little sad it didn't make it to the film.	Kyoto Animation

198	Kokoro ga Sakebitagatterunda. Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 2015	Film deals w/ social anxiety & trauma caused by divorce, in the form of students putting on a musical. I liked that all the characters got some development, the melodrama tarnished it a bit and feel conflicted about the ending, still hit me in the feels.	A-1 Pictures

199	Komori-san wa Kotowarenai! Add - More	4	TV	12	Fall 2015	About a extremely tall girl who can’t refuse help to anybody. The episodes were only 2 minutes so not much in way of story. Some funny moments but most of it was the same stupid jokes and lazy fanservice.	Artland

200	Kono Sekai no Katasumi ni Add - More	7	Movie	1	Fall 2016	Slice-of-life about woman living through WWII era Japan. Despite its massive runtime I felt the characters could’ve been fleshed out more, wasn’t big of the childish artstyle. Still the film had its emotional moments, themes of war, destruction, hope.	MAPPA

201	Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! Add - More	5	TV	10	Winter 2016	Isekai parody, dude dies in embarrassing way, goes to fantasy world where it all goes wrong. Many humorous moments, characters unlikable though (esp Acqua), ends up more being a parody of itself. Too much fanservice, do bras not exist in this world?	Studio Deen

202	Kotonoha no Niwa Add - More	6	Movie	1	Spring 2013	The most impressive & gorgeous animation of all of Shinkai's films, and that's saying something. Couldn't care less of the characters though, the twist was bit dumb and a lot of the film felt uncomfortably like someone's foot fetish.	CoMix Wave Films

203	Koukaku Kidoutai Add - More	8	Movie	1	Fall 1995	Asks profound questions about transhumanism, identity, what it means to be human. Story ahead of its time, more relevant each day. Animation & music very good. Has overabundance of nudity, condenses the source material, aside that it’s a must watch.	Production I.G

204	Koukyoushihen Eureka Seven Add - More	9	TV	50	Spring 2005	Great romance mecha which also touches on some serious topics such as propaganda, religious persecution, and enviromentalism. Some pacing and narrative issues, but overall one of my all-time favorites.	Bones

205	Koukyoushihen Eureka Seven Hi-Evolution 1 Add - More	4	Movie	1	Summer 2017	Explores some of the story in the timeline before Renton and Eureka met, but most of the movie is just lazily rehashed footage from the show. Hi-Evolution 2 has nothing to do with this so why was it made exactly?	Bones

206	Koukyoushihen Eureka Seven Hi-Evolution 2: Anemone Add - More	1	Movie	1	Fall 2018	Total nonsense, poor mix of 2d and 3d animation. Spends most of the time retconing and messing up the original. No idea why Eureka 7's creators seem so preocupied with these alternate universe sequels at the expense of the original show.	Bones

207	Kujira no Kora wa Sajou ni Utau Add - More	6	TV	12	Fall 2017	Unique & interesting worldbuilding, surprisingly brutal for a shoujo. That said a lot of the emotional moments were ruined by melodrama, and some terrible writing and directing. Feel conflicted about this anime, 6 is way too high but it feels right.	J.C.Staff

208	Kumo no Mukou, Yakusoku no Basho Add - More	5	Movie	1	Fall 2004	Shinkai’s first film. Confusing alt-history story with alternate dimensions, time skips, war, love triangles & sci-fi elements, which aren’t ever really explored. There were some decent ideas here, I think filmmakers were too overambitious.	CoMix Wave Films

209	Kumo no You ni Kaze no You ni Add - More	7	TV Special	1	Winter 1990	Nice art & music for 90s, protagonist was annoying. Too much exposition and downer ending was abrupt. Despite it being a goofy comedy for most of runtime, it’s actually a cleverly disguised tragedy with something to say how power will corrupt people.	Pierrot

210	Kurenai no Buta Add - More	7	Movie	1	Summer 1992	Ace pilot who's cursed to be a pig flies around in alt-history Italy. Great detailed animation for 90s, Miyazaki shows off his love for planes yet again, but not a lot story wise happens, I found the ending slightly unsatisfying. Still plenty of fun.	Studio Ghibli

211	Kuroi Ame ni Utarete Add - More	5	Movie	1	Summer 1984	Atomic bomb survivors deal with the aftermath including sickness & discrimination. Deals with important themes, but the characters are fickle & unlikable, and while i can't blame them the anti-American sentiment is so over the top it borders on goofy.	Tsuchida Productions

212	Kuroi Kikori to Shiroi Kikori Add - More	6	Movie	1	Summer 1956	One of the earliest anime films, story about one man who is cruel to nature and another who is kind. It’s a silent film and plot’s simplistic, but it has a charming feel about it. Decent for what it is.

213	Kyoukasho ni Nai! Add - More	2	OVA	2	Spring 1998	Teacher has crush on co-worker but is blackmailed by idiot daughter of Yakuza who forcibly moves into his home & classroom. Unfunny jokes, awful animation, only adapts fraction of the source material. Still I've seen worse, that's the only positive lol.	AIC

214	Last Exile Add - More	6	TV	26	Spring 2003	Great world building & soundtrack, but unfortunately a lot of unrealized potential as well. So many aspects left unexplained, inconsistent characters writing, & as typical of Gonzo overuse of CGI. Had its good moments, but also too many unsatisfying ones	Gonzo

215	Legend of Lemnear: Kyokuguro no Tsubasa Valkisas Add - More	4	OVA	1	Summer 1989	Generic story of scantly-clad heroine fighting evil dudes who killed her family. Given that it's a cheap 80s OVA the animation is actually well done, but the story's rather simplistic & dumb, dub is hilariously bad. Over-the-top violence & nudity as well.	AIC

216	Liang Bu Yi Add - More	5	ONA	24	Spring 2021	Emperor & empress accidently swap bodies in ancient China. Character designs were very detailed, but the 3d cgi didn’t blend well w/ the Chibi 2d animation. Most of the characters were unbelievably stupid. Had its wholesome & funny moments, overall okay	Paper Plane Animation Studio

217	Liang Bu Yi 2nd Season Add - More	5	ONA	24	Fall 2022	In ways both better & worse than previous season. Prince & princess have switched back bodies, so main source of tension has been removed, but there was some good character development & emotional moments, just tarnished by pacing & stupid humor.	Paper Plane Animation Studio

218	Lodoss-tou Senki Add - More	6	OVA	13	Spring 1990	DnD/Tolkien inspired story, liked the character designs & music, animation started okay but got worse each episode. The non-chronological episode order & haphazard plot tarnished it a bit, Deedlit could be annoying but was by far best girl, Parn was lame.	Madhouse

219	Long Zhong Ren Add - More	5	ONA	16	Summer 2024	Characters trapped in novel must navigate their way out. Unique concept, Fei Xingkong & Sui Ri had good chemistry, liked how artstyle changes w/ each new arc, but the comedy & suspense mix poorly, animation got worse each episode. Ends on cliffhanger.	Paper Animation

220	Long Zu Add - More	6	ONA	16	Summer 2022	Dude gets accepted to college for dragon slayers. The animation is nice, op was great, and the comedic scenes were hilarious, however the plot makes little sense, very inconsistent tone, and mishandled the serious moments. Not great but still enjoyable.	GARDEN Culture

221	Long Zu Episode 0 Add - More	6	ONA	1	Summer 2022	Prequel to main series. Basically the same setup as Harry Potter: dude lives w/ mean uncle, aunt, cousin, & gets accepted to his parent’s magic school. Dialogue is stupid but comedy was really funny, Chen Motong was an awesome character.	GARDEN Culture

222	Lucky☆Star Add - More	7	TV	24	Spring 2007	Famous anime parodying otaku culture, the op dance is legendary & for the most part the show is pretty hilarious, although the jokes can be hit-or-miss depending if you’ve seen what their poking fun at. Konata was annoying & Lucky Channel was awful.	Kyoto Animation

223	Lupin III: Cagliostro no Shiro Add - More	7	Movie	1	Fall 1979	Famous francise gets the Miyazaki treatment. Animation & music are excellent considering when it came out. Film is a lot of fun, but it's too over-the-top and goofy to really take seriously, too much suspension of disbelief.	Tokyo Movie Shinsha, Telecom Animation Film

224	Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic Add - More	7	TV	25	Fall 2012	Loosely based on 1, 001 Arabian nights. Interesting characters & story, profound themes on slavery, economics, hate, and war, but the fanservice was a bit too over the top and Aladdin’s perverseness got annoying fast.	A-1 Pictures

225	Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei Add - More	4	TV	26	Spring 2014	Had potential but squandered it, nice animation & music, but it completely mishandles theme of discrimination, stupid incest subplot, irrationally overpowered protagonist, even the tournament arc is boring. Btw half the show is Miyuki saying “Oni-sama!"	Madhouse

226	Maison Ikkoku Add - More	7	TV	96	Spring 1986	Loser college student falls for young widower landlord. The supporting cast is incredibly dislikable (especially Yotsuya) it’s a slow burn, gradually gets better. Nicely detailed art for mid-80s, OPs were nice. Frustrating at times, ending was worth it.	Studio Deen

227	Maison Ikkoku: Bangai-hen - Ikkokujima Nanpa Shimatsuki Add - More	5	OVA	1	Spring 1991	The main characters get shipwrecked on an island, with the annoying tenants up to their usual shenanigans. The OVA was done by a different studio, so the artstyle was noticeably different. Twist ending was dumb, not essential for viewing.	Magic Bus

228	Majo no Takkyuubin Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 1989	Cute story and characters. Good themes on coming-of-age and overcoming depression. Excellent dynamic animation for the 80s. Ending was a little abrupt and storytelling a bit inconsistent.	Studio Ghibli

229	Makai Tenshou Add - More	1	OVA	2	Winter 1998	Anachronistic samurai flick of Jesus being reborn in Japan then dying to become Satan. Not only does absolutely nothing here make sense, the animation is butt ugly, the whole thing is filled with gore, random rape scenes. One of the worst anime ever.	Phoenix Entertainment

230	Manaria Friends Add - More	4	TV	10	Winter 2019	Nice production values & Grea is really pretty, but man what a snooze fest. Watching girls blush & say “ahh” to each other is not entertaining, yes there were some wholesome moments, but doesn’t make up for 10 episodes of just fanservice & yuri bait	CygamesPictures

231	Mary to Majo no Hana Add - More	7	Movie	1	Summer 2017	A blatant rip-off of Ghibili, especially Kiki's Delivery Service. It took over an hour for the film to get interesting, but when it did it was fairly entertaining. Wish they did a bit more w/ the world building, overall a decently fun experience.	Studio Ponoc

232	Megami-ryou no Ryoubo-kun. Add - More	2	TV	10	Summer 2021	Bc anime logic a underage boy is trapped in a college female dormitory, w/ some of the stupidest characters and illogical fanservice imaginable. Uncomfortable & irritating to watch, Atena was somewhat sympathetic, which saves this trash from being 1.	asread.

233	Memories Add - More	7	Movie	3	Fall 1995	Anthology of 3 separate stories; "Magnetic Rose" was gripping & rather inventive, "Stink Bomb" was well-animated but the story was dumb, "Cannon Fodder" was rather mediocre.	Madhouse, Studio 4°C

234	Metal Skin Panic MADOX-01 Add - More	5	OVA	1	Fall 1987	Dude randomly finds lost mech suit and tries to use it to find his girlfriend while the military chases him, hilarity ensues. The plot makes very little sense, but the action scenes were well done as were the mechs designs. Okay for what it was.	AIC, Artmic

235	Metropolis Add - More	6	Movie	1	Spring 2001	Great animation for when it was made though the CGI looked a bit dated. Good themes against discrimination, robots vs humans, and overuse of technology, but character development mishandled, plot haphazard, hated the 1920s vibe. Flawed but has its charm.	Madhouse

236	Midori no Hibi Add - More	5	TV	13	Spring 2004	Delinquent wakes up to realize a girl who has a crush on him has become his right hand. The show had a few funny & wholesome moments, but it was also cringy & stupid at times, I found the characters mostly annoying. Sentimental scenes didn’t really hit.	Pierrot

237	Mimi wo Sumaseba Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 1995	Comfy coming-of-age story, the art is wonderfully detailed and the story well done. Didn't really care about the romance melodrama, the ending is bit abrupt, still this is one of the better Ghibli films and Slice-of-life anime.	Studio Ghibli

238	Mirai Shounen Conan Add - More	7	TV	26	Spring 1978	Miyazaki's first anime, can see inspiration for later works. Animation & story ahead of its time, although the anti-war & environmentalist messages are bit too blatant. The show is often too lightheaded to properly address its themes. Still pretty good.	Nippon Animation

239	Miru Tights Add - More	3	ONA	12	Spring 2019	Literally just 4-minute shorts centering around girl's tights. No story, animation mostly rotoscoped. Hilariously straightforward in its delivery, still one of the dumbest anime I have seen. Made for ppl with a leg fetish, thankfully I'm not one of them.	Yokohama Animation Laboratory

240	Miyuki Add - More	6	TV	37	Spring 1983	Romcom about boy who has unbelievably pure girlfriend named Miyuki & an unnecessarily flirtatious adopted sister also named Miyuki. It's ok for 80s anime, has cute & funny moments, but there're some uncomfortable scenes with all the perverted adults.	Kitty Film Mitaka Studio

241	Mob Psycho 100 Add - More	5	TV	12	Summer 2016	Popular anime of overpowered student trying to keep his esper powers hidden. Some moments of good animation & humor, but I found the art style hideous & the characters unlikable. Improves in last 4 episodes, others might like it but definitely not for me.	Bones

242	Momoko, Kaeru no Uta ga Kikoeru yo. Add - More	9	Movie	1	Summer 2003	Boy’s severely disabled sister transfers to his school. The animation is pretty bad & it’s meant for a younger audience, yet I still found it extremely touching. Wholesome & tragic, w/ an extremely important message of the intrinsic value everyone has	Magic Bus

243	Mononoke Add - More	8	TV	12	Summer 2007	Medicine vendor goes around historical Japan exorcising ghost in 5 separate arcs. The art is some of the most colorful, bizarre, & unique in anime, although the faces were rather ugly. Good portrayal of the human condition, themes of greed, lust, envy.	Toei Animation

244	Mononoke Hime Add - More	9	Movie	1	Summer 1997	As epic as a film can get. Great plot, drama, and story progression. One or two little issues nagged me but besides that it's near perfect	Studio Ghibli

245	Monster Add - More	8	TV	74	Spring 2004	Japanese doctor in 90s Germany saves boy who is actually a sociopathic killer. Poses some moral questions & dilemmas. Story does drag at times, contentious ending, not the masterpiece many think it is. Still in terms of mystery & suspense it’s great.	Madhouse

246	Muteki Kanban Musume Add - More	5	TV	12	Summer 2006	Energetic but dimwitted girl works at her mom's ramen shop, interacts w/ the other wacky cast. No real plot, animation was bit substandard, some amusing moments but for the most part I didn't find it that funny.	Telecom Animation Film

247	Nagasarete Airantou Add - More	6	TV	26	Spring 2007	Dumb harem about runaway boy getting stranded on island full of only girls. The first two episodes were just ecchi stupidity, but after a while I warmed up to it & the wacky humor, very funny, plenty of wholesome and kawaii moments as well.	feel.

248	Nagi no Asu kara Add - More	6	TV	26	Fall 2013	Beautiful animation, the 2 ops and eps were great, and the series undergoes a time-skip & tone change halfway through I thought was handled relatively well. However the protagonist is really annoying, too much romance melodrama, unsatisfying finale.	P.A. Works

249	Nakitai Watashi wa Neko wo Kaburu Add - More	7	ONA	1	Spring 2020	Interesting premise, good themes, although the protagonist is rather unlikable. Story dragged on at times, and unless you’re into cats it can be somewhat cringy. That said it hit the sentimental beats and had a somewhat satisfying conclusion.	Studio Colorido

250	Naruto Add - More	5	TV	220	Fall 2002	Some good arcs, ideas, & characters, but far too much pointless filler. Kakashi & Rock Lee are good characters but of the trio Naruto is dumb, Sakura is abhorrent, and Sauske is a whinny revenge extremist. Everything Naruto did HxH did better.	Pierrot

251	Natsu e no Tobira Add - More	3	Movie	1	Winter 1981	Tries to address sexuality in adolescence and gets it horribly wrong. Overly melodramatic, whinny & annoying characters, mishandles suicide, art is bland but okay for early 80s I guess. Also it has a grown woman seducing a teenage boy.	Madhouse, Toei Animation

252	Natsu e no Tunnel, Sayonara no Deguchi Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 2022	Great animation, the voice acting & music was also great. Main duo had weird chemistry, also was a bit cliché at times. Feel conflicted about the ending, seemed rushed & apparently they skipped a lot of the source material. I still cried, it was touching	CLAP

253	Nekopara Add - More	3	TV	12	Winter 2020	Insufferable boring show about andromorphic cat girls working at a cafe & doing stupid stuff. Unfunny cat jokes & dumb fanservice, aside from adopting a new kitten nothing at all happens during the runtime. Probably intended for furries & pedophiles.	Felix Film

254	Nezha Nao Hai Add - More	5	Movie	1	Spring 1979	Film based off Chinese mythology. Seems as it was originally intended to be a play with all the singing & dancing. Nice animation, although the dragons were a bit expressionless. As a historic film was okay, don't know if I'd recommend.	Shanghai Animation Film Studio

255	Nezha Zhi Mo Tong Jiang Shi Add - More	6	Movie	1	Summer 2019	Modern take on Chinese classic tale. Animation resembles Pixar, in a good way, colorful art & complex action scenes. Protagonist unlikable though, supporting characters mostly morons. Plot goes awry in second half, still has surprisingly emotional ending	October Media

256	Ni no Kuni Add - More	5	Movie	1	Summer 2019	2 friends travel to another world where doubleganger of the girl they both love is in danger. Great animation & I loved the fantasy world, though the story gets very illogical. Characters act really dumb, especially Haru, one of anime's biggest idiots.	OLM

257	Night Head Genesis Add - More	5	TV	24	Summer 2006	Two brothers w/ psychic abilities travel around solving crimes & mysteries. Many interesting ideas, just undercut by how overly edgy & esoteric the anime is. Writing rather sub-standard, and the anime makes less & less sense in the latter episodes.	Bee Media

258	Night Walker: Mayonaka no Tantei Add - More	5	TV	12	Summer 1998	Episodic series of vampire detective investigating ppl who are possessed, often w/ tragic stories. Nice op & the stories have some interesting twists, but the abundance of nudity, annoying characters (esp Guni & Riho), & disappointing finale drag it down.	AIC

259	Nozomi Witches Add - More	6	OVA	3	Summer 1992		Group TAC

260	Nyanko Days Add - More	5	TV	12	Winter 2017	Typical schoolgirl hangs out w/ friend & their chibi anthropomorphic cats. No real story to speak of, only selling point the supposed cuteness of the cats. Overall stupid, but somewhat ironically funny, though the helium-filled voices get annoying quick.	EMT Squared

261	Oemojisangjuui Add - More	5	ONA	8	Fall 2022	Bullied chubby boy wakes up as a handsome jock. Animation & production is nicely done (save the out-of-place cgi in the finale), but most of the characters are shitty & one dimensional. There’s a decent message buried here, but it’s underdeveloped.	Studio Mir

262	Ogami Matsugorou Add - More	3	OVA	1	Fall 1989	Obscure OVA, very cheap & questionable animation, they're supposed to be highschool students, the boy looks like he's 40 and the girl looks like a preschooler. Stupid dialogue & questionable plot development, very elementary theme of "fighting is bad".

263	Omoide Poroporo Add - More	8	Movie	1	Summer 1991	Underappreciated Ghibli film. Woman takes break from city to work in countryside while reminiscing over the past. Good themes in coming-ot-age, being autistic, rural life. Only blemish is that the odd linework made the smiling characters look creepy.	Studio Ghibli

264	On Your Mark Add - More	7	Music	1	Spring 1995	Touching short about two futuristic cops freeing winged girl first from a cult and then from research laboratory. Some of the best & fluid animation of the 90s, the music is really cheesy & repetitive though.	Studio Ghibli

265	Oneechan ga Kita Add - More	4	TV	12	Winter 2014	Series of shorts about boy whose stepsister wants to go out with him, and two other pairs of siblings that are in the same situation. The art was bad, story only rarely funny or wholesome, it’s mercifully short but still wouldn’t recommend.	C2C

266	Oneechan ga Kita: Hajimete no… Kitaa! Add - More	4	Special	1	Winter 2014	Unneeded extra episode detailing how Ichika & Tomoya first met when they were younger. It’s still convoluted and stupid, but it’s unironically the best episode in the series, although that’s not a high standard.	C2C

267	Onigamiden Add - More	5	Movie	1	Spring 2011	Dude transported back in time to be savior in a historic human-demon war. Fantastic animation, but the writing was bad, felt increasingly like a rip-off of Princess Mononoke, music didn't fit & the protagonist was too wimpy, other characters were bland.	Pierrot

268	Onihei Add - More	7	TV	13	Winter 2017	Episodic series of samurai detectives catching thieves in 17th-century Japan. It’s by an underground studio, so even though the art style itself is nice, the animation itself if pretty meh. It’s okay, episodes 11 & 12 were the best overall.	Studio M2

269	Onna Senshi Efe & Jira: Gude no Monshou Add - More	5	Movie	1	Spring 1990	I liked the high fantasy & religious themes, that said the art was sub-standard and the comedy and bloodshed aspects of the film did not go together well. The chemistry of the main duo was good though, wish this was a series instead of a short film.	J.C.Staff

270	Onsen Yousei Hakone-chan Add - More	5	TV	13	Fall 2015	Hot Spring spirit appears to teenagers, hilarity ensues. The jokes were mostly hit-or-miss and the characters were very stereotypical, but it did have a few funny & cute moments. An average comedy.	Production Reed, Asahi Production

271	Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki Add - More	5	Movie	1	Summer 2012	A bit disappointing. Yes it is a heartwarming tale of a single mother raising her half wolf/human kids, and has some good emotional moments, but with no real conflict or climax the film felt unfocused.	Studio Chizu

272	Ooyukiumi no Kaina Add - More	6	TV	11	Winter 2023	War over water in snow land fantasy. I liked the unique world, although it felt a bit like a ripoff of Nausicaä at times. The CGI animation was a bit janky, story had some plot holes, but overall I enjoyed it.	Polygon Pictures

273	Ooyukiumi no Kaina: Hoshi no Kenja Add - More	6	Movie	1	Fall 2023	Conclusion of the show, the introduction of modern-day technology into what was previously a fantasy setting was pretty stupid, the villain was rather generic & pathetic. Still it had some good moments & nice ending, fitting finale for the series.	Polygon Pictures

274	Ouran Koukou Host Club Add - More	6	TV	26	Spring 2006	Popular cross-dressing & reverse harem anime. Some good character development & hilarious moments, but the show is so over-the-top & silly that it all felt bit too inconsequential for me, especially when it tried to be serious in the last 2 episodes.	Bones

275	Ouritsu Uchuugun: Honneamise no Tsubasa Add - More	9	Movie	1	Winter 1987	Space race in alt history. Film addresses themes of the human condition, religion, poverty, and war w/ a seriousness but also cynical humor. The animation and music is beyond stupendous. The one rape scene was completely unneeded, aside that it’s great.	Gainax

276	Oushitsu Kyoushi Heine Add - More	5	TV	12	Spring 2017	Mysterious man goes to tutor 4 effeminate princes in Victorian-German fantasy world. Very little plot, while I liked the setting and story I found the characters rather lack luster. Decent anime other might enjoy, I just personally found it bland.	Bridge

277	Overflow Add - More	4	ONA	8	Winter 2020	Two sisters seduce the horny stupid main character, that’s pretty much the entire plot. Animation started alright but got progressively worse each episode. This was the first hentai I saw, and there are definitely worse, but still not worth watching.	Studio Hokiboshi

278	Page of Lambda Add - More	7	PV	1	Spring 2024	Nice animation and music, a promo for a fantasy story of sorts. Looks intriguing, hope something comes out of it.

279	Pale Cocoon Add - More	5	OVA	1	Fall 2005	Post-apocalyptic future where individuals shift through database for information on the past. It’s rather confusing, nothing is really explained, and has overly eerie & somber tone. Had some cool concepts, but anime is too short & vague to deliver.	Studio Rikka

280	Pandora Hearts Add - More	5	TV	25	Spring 2009	Decent premise, in Victorian setting a noble kid gets linked to spirit and the 2 w/ help try to recover her memories. Plot was slow, boy did it drag a lot of the time. Bland characters: Gilbert was okay but I couldn't make myself care about Oz or Alice.	Xebec

281	Paprika Add - More	8	Movie	1	Fall 2006	Basically Inception the anime. Great art & music was catchy, extremely convoluted though, still confused over what the film was about. The premise of hacking into dreams could be done better, still it's one of the most imaginative animes out there.	Madhouse

282	Perfect Blue Add - More	8	Movie	1	Winter 1998	Satoshi Kon's first film, a creepy & haunting portrayals of psychosis. I'm still confused on what was real & what was imagined, but that might be the point. Excellently directed & thought provoking, but it's too sexual & disturbing for me to really enjoy.	Madhouse

283	Pokemon Add - More	6	TV	276	Spring 1997	Classic kids show, based on popular game, though the lack of source material is evident in the nonsensical worldbuilding & writing. While story was silly & Ash could often be unbearable the pun-filled dub was golden, the Johto league arc was the best.	OLM

284	Pokemon Movie 01: Mewtwo no Gyakushuu Add - More	6	Movie	1	Summer 1998	Mewtoo is grown & escapes from laboratory a la Elfen Lied or Rocket's backstory from Guardians of the Galaxy. Surprisingly a lot darker than the show, nice animation, but boy does it drag at times (20 minutes on intro alone), ending makes little sense.	OLM

285	Pokemon Movie 02: Maboroshi no Pokemon Lugia Bakutan Add - More	6	Movie	1	Summer 1999	Remember seeing this film as a kid, probably one of the better Pokémon flicks, a cool epic adventure, good to see Ash & others work together. Good animation, although the CGI didn't age well. At least Team Rocket weren't completely useless this time lol.	OLM

286	Promare Add - More	6	Movie	1	Spring 2019	Fun silly film, although too often felt like a copy of previous works especially Gurren Lagann. The goofy dialogue & over-the-top animation mean the movie's noble message against discrimination never really sticks. Nice production, decently enjoyable.	Trigger

287	Psycho-Pass Add - More	8	TV	22	Fall 2012	Some decent social commentary, the grotesque violence at times made it a difficult watch. Akane's character development & her relationship w/ Kagami was a joy to see. Makishima is a copy of Johan from Monster, but this show is just as good if not better.	Production I.G

288	Puparia Add - More	-	ONA	1	Fall 2020	Amazing to think that this was all hand drawn by one person, stunning art. As with a lot of post-modern stuff, the meaning is whatever you believe it to be. At 3 minuets doesn’t feel right to give a score, but I would definitely recommend it.

289	RahXephon Add - More	7	TV	26	Winter 2002	Basically Evangelion w/ similar mechs, wacky symbolism, & trippy feel but with more women (and romance) but less action. A bit overly cryptic & confusing at times, wasn’t a big fan of the animation style, but I enjoyed the character drama, was alright.	Bones

290	Ranma ½ Add - More	6	TV	161	Spring 1989	Classic gender bending comedy, it's pretty ridiculously hilarious. It does wear out it's welcome, by midpoint you've already seen the best parts. The absence of any sympathetic characters is something else, Happosai is one of the worst of all time.	Studio Deen

291	Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu Add - More	7	TV	25	Spring 2016	Loser isekaied to fantasy land & starts @ specific point when he dies. Has some cool twists & turns, liked the artstyle although ugly CGI was apparent in some scenes. Rem, Crusch, & Emilia were cool, Subaru had good development but too often very cringy.	White Fox

292	Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu - Memory Snow Add - More	5	Movie	1	Fall 2018	Bit of a filler episode of Emilia & Puck unintentionally creating winter through magic release, and Subaru's wacky ideas. Some funny and cute moments, but it still is overall a inconsequential filler, really drags in some places.	White Fox

293	Redline Add - More	7	Movie	1	Summer 2009	Fast & furious/pod racing meets anime, with an overdose of insanity. The fanservice was excessive, and it plays by the rule-of-cool too much that when it tries to be sentimental at the end it falls flat. Still highly enjoyable for what it was.	Madhouse

294	Rekka no Honoo Add - More	5	TV	42	Summer 1997	Near carbon-copy of YuYu Hakusho's characters & long tournament arc. Some funny moments, nicely animated action scenes, but the lame ending, uncomfortable fanservice, instances of poor animation drag it down. Stereotypical & mediocre shonen action show.	Pierrot

295	Relic Armor Legaciam Add - More	5	OVA	1	Fall 1987	Art was overall decent but bad in some moments, the voice acting, especially for the kids, was really annoying. There were some good moments though, and the characters and story could have really benefited from a longer runtime.

296	Rhea Gall Force Add - More	4	OVA	1	Winter 1989	Post-apocalyptic humans vs machines. Some nice themes about overcoming cultural differences to save humanity, but the bad animation, inconsistent plot, and lame dialogue (including the hilariously bad dub) really weighed it down.	AIC, Artmic, animate Film

297	Rio: Rainbow Gate! Add - More	4	TV	13	Winter 2011	As expected an anime based off a pachinko game is pretty low on substance. Plot makes no sense, mostly unlikable characters, still a few decent scenes, Anya's blunders were funny. A mediocre stupid ecchi show, albite one that promotes gambling at that.	Xebec

298	Robot Carnival Add - More	6	OVA	1	Summer 1987	Anthology film of 9 different shorts about robots interacting w/ humans. The animation is spectacular for the time, but a lot of it is too cryptic & avant-garde for my liking. Not great but an interesting viewing experience.	APPP

299	Rokushin Gattai GodMars Add - More	4	TV	64	Fall 1981	Generic 80s mecha, defending earth from aliens etc. Animation subpar even for the time, abysmal framerate & constant reused footage, story has lots of plot holes, confusing ending. Still I enjoyed the character drama & protagonist’s internal dilemma.	Tokyo Movie Shinsha, Studio Cockpit

300	Rosario to Vampire Add - More	4	TV	13	Winter 2008	Boy ends up at monster school, has bunch of supernatural girls chasing him. Typical ecchi harem, lots of panty shots, bad story, animation, & pacing. Still it did have half decent character development & few wholesome & cute moments, a 4/10 may be harsh.	Gonzo
