Are you having a hard time deciding what anime to watch next? Or maybe you need help deciding what your first anime should be? Don't worry, this article has got you covered.
Steps
1Focus on the genre.If you love romance, mystery, or something else entirely, you can find an anime about it! There are many different individual genres of anime, but it is also roughly grouped into four main sections by age and gender (not that you should ever let that should stop you if it sounds like something you'd like to watch!)
*.Shoujo - intended for girls up to the age of 18
*.Shounen - intended for boys up to the age of 18
*.Josei - intended for girls over the age of 18
*.Seinen - intended for boys over the age of 18
2Look up lists on the internet.Once you've decided on a genre, see if you can find a list of recommendations. You probably won't have exactly the same taste as the person who made the list, but you can get some good ideas about which anime to try out.
3Look at the style of drawing the author uses.If you're a person who can't watch an anime if the drawings are really bad or not your style, then don't! Drawing styles vary depending on the author, genre and when it was drawn.
4Begin with the classics.They're well-known for a reason! You can start off with the famous ones like Naruto or Bleach.
5Try the first episode.If you didn't really like it, at least watch the next episode to see if it picks up. Animes need second chances too!
Tips
*.Find a good genre, e.g., mystery, magic, history and lots more.
*.Try to read a summary of the series on the Internet to see if it suits your personality.
*.Maybe before watching anime, you could start by reading manga.
*.If you can't think of a genre, it's okay to search for particular features you'd like the anime to have, e.g., weapons or a dark storyline.
Warnings
*.Don't get too caught up in anime. It might start to negatively impact your school or work life.
