Genre: action, comedy, drama, supernatural, mafia
Release date: 2006-2010Episodes: 203
Reborn is an interesting and well-written story involving hitman, mafia and supernatural powers. In the beginning, it was pretty slow as it took 20 episodes to introduce the characters. However, from episode 20 and onwards, it became more serious with captivating story arcs, enjoyable comic relief, and lots of great action scenes!

Episodes: 366
The main storyline is engaging with lots of great action. There is a lot of characters in this show; some of them are fairly well developed, some not so much. However, they are all interesting with their own unique weapons and abilities that make the fights entertaining. The main drawback is there is a lot of fillers and some are quite random.

A beautiful, moving story that involves a boy who releases various yokai from contracts that they had previously made with his grandmother a long time ago. The main character is realistic, sympathetic and very relatable. The story also captures many themes that one can relate to, such as friendship, family, and solitude.

Release date: 2006-2008

It is a captivating, dark story about exorcists and demons. The beginning is somewhat slow-paced as it provides us some background information and introduces the characters. The story then moves along nicely with lots of intense action. The characters are also pretty unique.

I particularly enjoy this OVA as it is a lot darker and more suspenseful than the regular series. The action scenes are perfect with some twisted characters.

This anime is an excellent portrayal of parallel worlds. The story is about a group of people searching for a girl's memories, which were scattered in various worlds in the form of feathers, to help save her soul. The story gets more complex when clones of the main characters become involved.

- Sword Art Online

Release date: 2012
Episodes: 25
The key highlight of this anime is the art and animation, which are fantastic. It is a story about a group of people playing an online game and suddenly gets trap in it. The plot is not bad, but I didn't like the second half of the show. They should of spend more time developing the first half and wrap it up right there. There is also some unnecessary and annoying time skips and fillers.
