Interest Stacks

Shows only, no movies. Not genre-specific.

This is for the Muslim anime fans!

DISCLAIMER: I've gotten messages from people who will tell me that some of the anime I have on this list are not halal because of one thing or another. Those people clearly didn't read the description so please DO SO before you start badgering me.

YES, it's probably nigh on impossible to find a non-children's anime that's completely 100% halal (if you are going to be THAT nit-picky then you should probably just not watch anime at all), but for those of you who want to watch something at least a little more clean than usual I've done my best to compile a list of shows that can be watched without too much of a guilty conscience during Ramadan or even normal days, alone or around family members.

I'm NOT excluding shows that have characters killing or dying (gotta have SOME conflict), smoking, drinking (in moderation), cursing, using magic (OTHER than what's listed below), or romance since almost every show has a little of that (so long as no overly physical intimacy is shown, though I tried to avoid anime where romance is the main focus). What I AM excluding are more so things that would be uncomfortable for the average conscientious Muslim to watch.
Shows with a supernatural element are also included so long as they don't include what's listed below.
Shows with a focus on music or drawing are also included, but if you rather avoid those shows as well I'll mention it in their description.

The criteria for this stack is that these shows DO NOT contain:

- Unnecessary nudity or ecchi scenes
- Dick jokes, boob jokes, masturbation jokes or jokes based on characters feeling aroused
- Sexual innuendo or content
- Incest or overly intimate behavior between siblings
- Gods, demons, angels, or other theological entities
- Settings of heaven, hell, or the afterlife
- Reincarnations, reanimation, necromancy, or creation of life
- Ghosts or spirits
- Traps or reverse traps (i.e. boys dressed as girls, or girls dressed as boys)
- Romance, crushes or overly intimate scenes between characters of the same sex
- Gender-ambiguous characters (like Crona from Soul Eater or Osana from Komi-san Can't Communicate)
- Characters that change genders
- Characters that claim to be a gender they're not
- Intense kissing scenes
- Characters dressed in exaggeratedly skimpy or skin-tight outfits

I actually found more than I thought I would, haha. Of course it's been awhile since I've watched some of these so my memory is a little fuzzy on details; some of the shows listed MIGHT have one of the no-no's I listed above. If so please do let me know.* Also do read the synopsis of any anime you're planning to watch to get a better idea on what it's about, and what features in it.

*NOTE: Again, just the ones I listed above! Do not bother me if you're going to tell me this show has magic or that show has boys and girls touching. YES, I know those things are haram in real life, but be reasonable; these are shows created by non-Muslims ABOUT non-Muslims FOR non-Muslims, so you can't expect to find anything that obeys Sharia law here! If you're worried because an anime has young women not wearing hijab then again, maybe just don't watch anime. This is for those Muslim anime fans who would just like a good story or wholesome entertainment without all the sexual and atheistic nonsense that the modern non-Muslim audience doesn't have a problem with.
