Dumbbell Nan Kilo Moteru?

We mostly watch Anime for enjoyment, but what if I told you there are Anime that entertain you AND you also learn something useful? This list features Anime that are entertaining but also teach you stuff that you could actually make use of in your life. From food to workouts and science, you will learn something!

This is a collection of series to see if you're searching for a female lead you will be able to cheer for as more as possible. Her main goal will not be romance.

I'm not sure what this subgenre is called but I myself sure do enjoy this a lot. I hope you do too!

1. Cast is all-girl
2. Not in the romance genre*
3. Only Slice of life shows[so no action/battle shows].


Split up in multiple parts due to number of entries.

My favorite animes that should give just about everyone a least one or two good laughs.
NOT a 100% pure comedy anime list
Im not going to put all seasons of the same anime on here. If the first season is on, i will apply the rec for alle the following seasons.

Super thicc, gluttonous, fat, chubby, and plump girls

Shows to think about when going to the gym. Good Physiques and motivation required. Anime for Chads, if you will.
Don't let my ratings influence you, some you may enjoy more, others you may enjoy less.
Not adding second seasons or other things, as that would only clutter the list.

A list of anime with long and unusual titles

This stack is dedicated to shows that either have a gyaru lead, main cast characters or at least as a very important supporting character. Starting from bright representatives of the archetype and ending with simply realistic stylish gyaru girls.

self-explanatory title, the anime in this list have uncommon themes, like pottery, microbes, and (why not?) designing every life form that God wants. either this, or they have an unusual setting; like, a surrealist world or even your body. no, really; it may not be yours, but the setting of the anime is, indeed, a human body!

also, a bunch of those anime are part of the CGDCT sub-genre, since they seem to have pretty unusual topics

Anime which contains character(s) that is a Gyaru

Gyaru (Japanese: ギャル; Japanese pronunciation: [ɡʲa̠ꜜɾɯ̟ᵝ]) is a Japanese fashion subculture. The term gyaru is a Japanese transliteration of the English slang word gal.

There are many substyle in gyaru for example : kogyaru, onee gyaru, ganguro, rock gyaru.. etc.

This list are mostly made up of "kogyaru" gals

If you want to know more about Anime Gyaru watch this very informative video on it : https://youtu.be/Rg0tqSC-cWY

Anime in the CGDCT genre that subverts traditional expectations of the genre as the pure formula of a show about the plotless everyday life of cute teen girls.

A list of anime that I find relaxing and perfect to watch after work. No focus needed, just sit down and enjoy the calm moments.


The list is obviously subjective. Your taste might differ and that's totally fine.

I am only adding the first seasons of each longer series!

Originally I wanted just to put CGDCT(Cute Girls Doing Cute Things) Anime but I decided to make a female-led anime list because there were so much I enjoyed but couldn't classify under CGDCT.

As such, in this list, I tried to include a large variety of different genres, although most are under slice of life so as to make it an easy pastime watch.

I also have a stack similar to this one that's more general feel-good shows, you can check that out as well if you prefer.

These are the animes that contain Best Boy nominees from the Crunchyroll Awards.

Anime that are so interesting/unusual that they could've only come from Japan.
