1: Toradora!



Toradora!'s story begins with the male protagonist Ryuuji Takasu who, despite his gentle personality, has a natural outer appearance which makes him look like an intimidating delinquent. Therefore, he is utterly hopeless about his chances of getting a girlfriend anytime soon, and does not have many close friends either.

After being greeted by his hungover mother in the morning, Ryuuji goes to school and is happy to find that he gets to be in the same class as his best friend, YÅ«saku Kitamura, and crush, Minori Kushieda. However, it is then that he unexpectedly knocks into "the school's most dangerous animal of the highest risk level" — Taiga Aisaka — who just happens to also be in his class.



Despite the quite obvious anime stereotypes in this show's characters, Toradora is among the best anime ever made. The author manages to take the stereotypes and run with them, making even the most mundane and common ones seem almost deep and psychological. The love story is cute and funny, the main characters' development is incredible and fascinating. Great artwork, fun music, a fast-paced ever-changing story line, and well-fleshed supporting characters make this an anime you'll never forget and always treasure.





#2: Death Note



Yagami Light is an ace student with great prospects, who's bored out of his mind. One day he finds the "Death Note": a notebook from the realm of the Death Gods, with the power to kill people in any way he desires. With the Death Note in hand, Light decides to create his perfect world, without crime or criminals. However, when criminals start dropping dead one by one, the authorites send the legendary detective L to track down the killer, and a battle of wits, deception and logic ensues...



Death Note is thrilling, fascinating, fast-paced, and highly intelligent. The plot is thought-provoking, dark, and never ceases to amaze, and the show seems inexplicably to stay fresh, new, and exciting each time you rewatch it.





#3: 12 Kingdoms (alternative title: Juuni Kokki)



A Japanese high-school girl is mystically transported to another world where she discovers her true fate; largely a political drama.

the story is about Yoko Nakajima, a girl who felt compelled to keep up an image of being a model student both in school and also at home.

One day, a man named Keiki showed up suddenly and recognised Yoko as his master. From that moment on, her life began to change dramatically.

Along with a couple of her classmates, she was taken by Keiki into a fantasy world made up of 12 Kingdoms. There, she became lost and separated from Keiki. Hunted by demons and mistreated by everyone (even her own classmates), she becomes strong through the ordeals she faced in order to survive in the world of the 12 Kingdoms and uncovers the destiny that lay in store for her.



This anime is GREAT. Character development is awesome, art is good, the only lacking parts are the animation and the music (well, the music is O.K.). However, the flaws are tremendously overshadowed by the general perfection of the storyline, the characters, the psychological intrigue... It may seem slow-paced and it does require a lot of intellectual energy but you will not be disappointed; each episode is fascinating and leaves you feeling very satisfied.







These shows are THE BEST, MUST-WATCH anime. !!!

Enjoy watching!! :D

Hi!!! :D Before i start, i recommend you watch Naruto and Naruto Shippuden. I'm sure you'll love it!



Naruto: Naruto Uzumaki is a young boy who has the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox sealed within him. Twelve years before the start of the series, the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox attacked the ninja village Konohagakure, slaughtering many people. In response, the leader of Konohagakure and its ninja military – the Fourth Hokage – sacrificed his life to seal the demon inside Naruto when he was a newborn. Konohagakure, however, regarded Naruto as if he were the demon fox itself and mistreated him throughout most of his childhood. A decree made by the Third Hokage, who replaced the Fourth Hokage after his death, forbade anyone mention the attack of the demon fox to anyone else. This included Naruto, who was not aware of the demon inside of him. (No more because I'll ruin the fun!)



Naruto Shippuden: The new story revolved mainly around Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura Haruno's new adventures, and their search for Sasuke Uchiha after he defected from Konoha in order to gain Orochimaru's power. The plot laters involves new major characters, such as Sai and Yamato. The plot also showed a more active Akatsuki in their quest to obtain all the tailed beasts. (No more or I'll spoil it.)



The story opens with the sudden appearance of one of the Soul Reapers (死神, Shinigami?, lit. "death god"), a military order who escorts the souls of the dead, named Rukia Kuchiki in teenager Ichigo Kurosaki's bedroom. She is surprised at his ability to see her, but their conversation is interrupted by the appearance of a "hollow", an evil spirit who was originally a human soul. After Rukia is severely wounded while trying to protect Ichigo, she attempts to transfer half of her reiatsu (霊圧?, lit. "spirit pressure") to Ichigo in order to let him face the hollow on equal footing. Ichigo unintentionally absorbs almost all her energy, allowing him to defeat the hollow with ease. The next day Rukia appears in Ichigo's classroom as a seemingly normal human, and informs Ichigo that his absorption of her powers has left her stranded in the human world until she recovers her strength. In the meantime Ichigo shelters Rukia in his home and takes over her job as a Soul Reaper, battling hollows and guiding lost souls to the afterlife realm known as Soul Society.



Hope this helps! And Good luck finding what you need! :D

If you already saw Naruto, oh well. :)
