Afro Samurai

Animes that stand out due to their distinctive Art Styles
(Visual Aesthetic)

Anime with a specific atmosphere to them (not necessarily a "comfy" one).

stack for teenagers or adults

I've only put fist seasons and most have dub

easy introduction to anime most of these don't feel like an anime

Anime that either start off slow to build up world and characters and then goes full steam ahead with NO breaks or anime that start off very fast paced with occasional small (few minutes, 1 episode max) breaks. These anime may have a high amount of gore and sometimes even character deaths.

Example of first type: Soul Eater

Example of second type: Kill la Kill

Will be edited along the way.

Good direction doesn’t just mean action sakuga. It means everything, camera angles, soundtrack and dialogue choices, art style, etc etc and more.

Here’s a stack of anime that check most of these boxes.
