Anime’s that I was hesitant to watch but actually
K-on! ~ This was the first anime I really watched, I don’t quite remember it but I know I did enjoy it, it was about a group with a dream to become a band. It was cute!
Demon Slayer ~ Honestly a lot of people have watched this. I was pretty hesitant, even when watching it but when I continued it I absolutely loved it. It’s about a boy who loses his family from a demon, and becomes a demon slayer to get rid of the demons and turn his sister back to a human. You can watch it on Netflix, and Crunchyroll! (I know at least a season is on Hulu but idk how much of it)
My Hero Academia ~ Now this anime clenches to my heart. I absolutely love this anime so much. I know loads of people who have watched it, it’s kind of a hit or miss I feel like. There’s not enough words to describe how much I love this anime. It’s about a boy who gains super powers and has to master them as he gets through his dream high school. Season 1-2 can be found on Netflix, season 1-7 can be found on Hulu I believe and crunchyroll.
The Promised Neverland ~ I have only watched season 1, it’s definitely a pretty decent horror anime. I watched this with my friend at the time, we picked a random anime to watch and it didn’t disappoint. It’s about an orphanage that turns out to being a place where kids are raised with high intelligence just to be eaten. It can be found on Hulu and Crunchyroll.
Fruits Basket ~ I watched up to like season two episode five and I’ve liked it so far. It’s been pretty good but I have trouble with finishing things sometimes. It’s about the zodiac signs and a girl who meets them all pretty much. It’s still a good anime, it can be found on Hulu and Crunchyroll.
Jujutsu Kaisen ~ I was hesitant to start this because everyone was watching it and it seemed kinda boring to be honest. Like I didn’t think I was going to like it but I definitely did. If you like demon slayer you’ll like this show. Season one can be found on both Netflix and Hulu but if you want to see season two that is on Crunchyroll.
Sakamoto Days ~ I was SO hesitant on watching this show because it’s not the usual ones I watch. It’s about an old assassin who retires, gets fat and then has to get back into it but swears he won’t kill anyone no more. It’s so good and it’s on going. I know it’s on Netflix.
Tougen Anki ~ The first episode is Lowkey bad because of how fast it is, you can barely understand what’s going on in the first episode but it slows down in the second one and it’s Lowkey good. It is also on Netflix as I know of.
