9 Anime to Watch if You Want to Feel Like 👇🏾

I wanna go to war! I want a lightsaber! AHHHHH! 💪🏾

Sometimes, ya just wanna see heads roll. Following the path of a "righteous" or... morally ambiguous person with a mission wreaking havoc against insurmountable odds (cue the plot armor). This collection just happens to be bite sized for your viewing pleasure. Check out the short series/movie recs below for good action. Since that feeds into a lot of sub-genres, there's more of a focus on adventure or drama (as opposed to horror or gore). ⚠️ Most of these recs are for mature audiences so be advised!

Michiko and Hatchin (series)

Filed under: "I love the kind of woman that will actually just kill me." Michiko is equal parts lethal and lovely. In fact, her looks often leave those who seek to capture her unaware of how big a threat she truly is. She is reckless and relentless with a single minded determination. The story starts out as a quest for a man but evolves into one of camaraderie between the titular characters. TBH I'd love more WOC led action series/suggestions.

Sub/Dub | Funimation, Crunchyroll

Trigun (series + OVA)

When @elaine2895 asked some of my favorite characters, the reflection reminded me of one of my favorite anime when I was younger. The series follows Vash the Stampede, a wandering gunman who draws the ire of those he comes across as he leaves chaos in his wake or, worse, inspires fear in the very civilians he makes it a point to save. The bounty on his head pretty much guarantees he will never know peace but he continues to roll along until he's forced to confront his past.

Sub/Dub | Funimation, Crunchyroll, Hulu

Samurai Champloo (series)

I almost added Samurai Champloo to this list instead but I'm glad I held out. It's a great addition to this list, I just happened to find the fight sequences to be particularly beautiful and the soundtrack is stellar. Fuu embarks on a mission to find a samurai who smells of sunflowers with Mugen and Jin begrudgingly in tow. While Mugen and Jin manage to stave off their animosity toward one another to work together as her body guard, they manage to make new and exciting trouble along the way. With Fuu's quest driving each of them forward, all three of them are forced to to come to terms with their separate pasts on their journey together.

Sub/Dub | Crunchyroll, Funimation, Hulu

Gangsta. (series)

See those tags up close and it just may be the last thing you see so let that be a warning. Nico and Worick are handymen who specialize in doing the dirty work no one else is really capable of doing. In a city overrun with corruption and sin, they play their role to maintain a sense of balance for those around them. So when a new force rears its head in Ergastulum, causing trouble for their esteemed contacts, they handle it the only way they know how. By any means necessary.

Sub/Dub | Funimation, Hulu

Banana Fish (series)

I try to keep recommendations diverse so the fact that this series wound up on this list before then ending up on this list of favorite characters...? It so squarely fits into this genre, it can't be avoided and it's so captivating. Ash, 17-year old gang leader, is entangled in a conspiracy that grows larger and larger by the day. Having spent too much of his life under the thumb of a large mafia boss, he navigates the rotten underbelly of gangland New York tracking down the origin of a strange drug that made its way to his turf. The very same mafia boss threatens his freedom and life the closer he gets to the truth. Despite the growing dangers associated with exploring this rabbit hole of a drug, his resolve doesn't waver. Where some of these shows tend to burn brightly and fade from your recollection over time, this is definitely one that stays with you (if the rest of my blog is any indication). ⚠️ Pay attention to trigger warnings!

Sub | Prime Video

Cowboy Bebop (series + OVA)

Bounty hunters have the benefit of no one digging too deeply when you show up to collect on an even shadier guys outstanding bounty. Cowboy Bebop pulls back the curtain on the lives of Spike, Jet and Faye as they barely skate by on what little bounties they're able to collect on. The bonds that keep them together are tenuous and it's not always clear what side of the law they're really on. While the show seems relatively easygoing and without a larger mission, eventually everyone has to answer for what drove them to be a bounty hunter in the first place.

Sub/Dub | Netflix, Funimation, Crunchyroll, Hulu

Akame Ga Kill! (series)

Filed under: "I love the kind of woman that will actually just kill me", "Don't get too attached" and "That first episode tho 👀" To say the story follows Tatsumi would be a bit misleading, especially considering the titular character is so obviously Akame. Nonetheless, the series kicks off with kind and naive Tatsumi, hoping to raise money for his village, separated from his childhood friends when bandits strike. Finding himself far from the kindness of his village, he becomes ensnared in a greater scheme to combat corruption in the Capital between two opposing forces the Night Raid and the Empire.

Sub/Dub | Hulu, HiDive

Dorohedoro (series)

Filed under: "I love the kind of woman that will actually just kill me" Age old story of a man who's transfigured into a reptile works to exact revenge and remember who he was before the transfiguration by kicking lots of ass. Pretty straightforward but things are not always as they may seem. Any questions, ask the guy inside his head.

Sub/Dub | Netflix

Love of Kill

This show takes enemies to lovers a bit literally. It's basically the product of what happens when an unstoppable force (Ryang-Ha the assassin) meets an immovable object (Chateau the bounty hunter). I think they call that the irresistible force paradox. So it goes as Ryang-Ha develops a quick and inexplicable fondness for someone who continues to be a rival and threat to his livelihood. Begrudgingly, Chateau entertains his whims as a means to an end but, eventually, the cost of keeping his company gets to be a little too pricy...

Sub/Dub | Crunchyroll

The Change in Art Within Fairy Tail

The Fairy Tail anime has had its fair share in change of the animation. From what I noticed, the animation changes well with the overall feeling of the current time of Fairy Tail. I’m unsure if this was done on purpose, though I am fairly certain it was, at least for the Tartaros arc. Comparing the beginning of the story to the end, you can definitely tell there is a change which may be due to the overall change and more experience Mashima has in drawing which then reflects in the animation that the team is making. The first season it brightly colored from the very beginning. There is never a dull moment in the color and if it does, it is to reflect on the scene. The characters are much more expressive and the magic is almost enticing. It lures you in with this thrill and whimsical colorfulness that almost reminds you of a childhood story. Of a Fairy Tale. As the story goes on, it does have darker tones but, as stated before, it is usually to keep the atmosphere going and it still keeps the expressiveness of this being fantastical. On the other-hand, when Fairy Tail ends in order to catch up with the manga we go from the happy 2009 feel straight into the darker 2014 feel, which I will say I enjoy slightly better mainly due to the quality of the animation improving. This art style is reflected well in the story. This is during the grand magic games, a bit before the Eclipse Gate arc is active, when the story gets significantly more intense. We have had more intense arcs before but this is a continuous moment of intensity. We have very few slow moments after this arc other than a part from a few fillers or moments between characters. Other than this, there are really no light hearted moments and instead most moments bring more tragedy to our beloved characters are an intense heartfelt moment. This style continues though the rest of the series up until the 2019 series, or the Final Season. Some people do not like the style change and I can agree to some extent, but I still do enjoy it. It is a good mix between both of the different art styles we were previously introduced to. The Final Season has the dark mix for the more intense and serious fights where you know that something bad is going to happen, but it also has the brighter tones that we missed from the first season with the happier moments. The moments that remind us that we are dealing with our own found family. The magic still has their bright moments, but it is not as memorable as it was when we first began as we have now become sensitized to it. I would love to know what you guys think though. What is your favorite style? As I said, I love the 2014 version just because of how the characters look and wish I could have seen characters from previous arcs in that same art style. The 2009 version still gives a nice nostalgia feeling.

Anyways, I’ll see you later in the Deep End!!

Anime of the day: Goblin Slayer: Goblin's Crown

Released: 2020

A young noble woman and her party disappeared while on a goblin slaying quest. Her family reaches out to Sword Maiden to help find her; naturally she reaches out to Goblin Slayer. But the goblins they encounter are nothing like goblins they have meet before.

The characters and world of Ranking of Kings are my favorite parts. Unfortunately, we didn't get to explore them all that much in the 23 episodes of the first season. And I have a feeling we won't get a second.

Why this arc is so boring?😩 so far the only thing worth it it’s to see our main trio again but damn I don’t know what to expect from this season anymore
