Believe it or not, anime isn’t just about animation or story. Anime, as a medium of entertainment, is very diverse in terms of the features it offers to its audience. And one such feature that needs your identification is the characters.
Yes, many of you overlook it but characters are an important aspect to make anime great and entertaining. And to make my point even more clear as well as introduce you to some fantastic characters, I have compiled top 5 anime series list.
This list is full of characters based on their popularity, contribution, writing, influence etc. So, you can rest assured that there will be some great people in it. So without any further delay, let’s dive into this vast ocean of a list. I hope you enjoy reading.
1. Sailor Moon
If you are looking for comedy, romance, dramatic moments and a great soundtrack, then Sailor Moon should be your choice. The romance and comedy here is balanced with some funny moments and it works well! It’s so easy to connect with the characters here!
They are lovable, lovable and dependable in many ways. The show may sound childish (mainly because of the voices in the dubbed version), but it actually covers a lot of issues such as sexuality, violence, and many relationship problems.
Many fans of this anime series say that it is better to avoid the English dubbed version. They recommend that you watch it with subtitles as the voice acting is better in the original Japanese version.
Sailor Moon is about a regular teenage girl whose life is turned upside down after learning of her fate. It is revealed that the girl is destined to become the planet protector and protect the planet. Since then he is called Warrior Sailor Moon. He must allies with other sailors to protect Earth.
2. Cowboy Bebop
When you’re looking for an anime that’s stood the test of time, Cowboy Bebop is usually the first thing that comes to mind. Despite coming out in 1997 and airing for only 26 episodes and one movie, the show is still one of the most popular and beloved anime, thanks to its genre-defining stories, characters, themes, and music.
Taking place in the year 2071, Cowboy Bebop follows the lives of a group of criminal bounty hunters as they embark on a number of different adventures.
While some are linear, each story incorporates other genres in its own unique way, combining sci-fi, western and noir tropes in its outer space setting, while also exploring themes of loneliness, existentialism, and grief.
Because of these unique concepts and storylines, Cowboy Bebop has received several awards for Best Anime and Best Voice Acting, including the Seiun Awards and Anime Grand Prix (Multiple).
3. Hunter x Hunter
Hunter x Hunter (pronounced Hunter Hunter) begins with a familiar trope: A protagonist, in this case a young boy named Gon, leaves his small town on an adventure for the first time. He leaves the island to find his long forgotten father who left him behind.
His only clue? He’s a world-renowned licensed Hunter – so Gon prepares to take the notoriously deadly test and become the Hunter himself. It sounds mundane and almost cheesy, but nothing is Hunter x Hunter.
The emotional ups and downs and arc of both the protagonist and the antagonist are some of the best. Like most shonen, the dramatic action is also spectacular.
4. My Dress-Up Darling
My Dress-Up Darling, one of the newcomers to the scene, takes the world by storm by discovering the story of a young man and woman who discover a connection to the world of cosplay. In case you haven’t experienced it, Crunchyroll’s official description is as follows:
Wakana Gojo is a high school boy who wants to become a kashirashi – a master craftsman who creates traditional Japanese henna dolls. Although he is buzzy about the craft, he knows nothing about the latest trends, and has a hard time with his class.
The popular kids — especially one girl, Marin Kitagawa — seem like they live in an entirely different world. That all changes one day, when she shares an unexpected secret with him, and their completely different worlds collide.”
5. Death Note
Another classic series that put anime on the map, Death Note is a sweeping crime thriller rife with the idea of life, mortality, and justice at the hands of karma. Light Yagami is a young vigilante who comes across the Death Note, a book in which any name is engraved, must face death.
Along with the Shinigami spirit (the Grim Reaper equivalent), what Light does with Death Note is a critical commentary on personal morality and how power and ego affect the role of God.
With elements of horror and thriller, the series tempts the audience to come back only with enough emotional damage. Another series with the perfect Rotten Tomatoes rating, Death Note is a twisted, mind-bending game of cat and mouse.
