Your guide to the best anime shows in almost every genre - everything from horror and mecha, to yuri and harem. =^‥^=

The Best Anime of Every Genre

Looking for good anime to watch? Here are the best anime shows of all time, ranked by fans everywhere. Top anime series include popular shows&nbsp;like Death Note, Attack on Titan, and many&nbsp;more. Plus, with so much&nbsp;<a href="/list/new-anime-debuting-in-2018/elise-yeakley" target="_blank">new anime debuting</a> each year, the list of best anime will only grow. The blanket term &quot;anime&quot; in the US can refer to any animation originating in Japan, and specifically differentiates a few aspects of Japanese animation from more Western styles. For example, the <a href="/list/funniest-anime-shows/ranker-anime">top comedy&nbsp;animes</a> can be be much more explicit in their humor.&nbsp;This includes the Japanese propensity to feature adult themes, cool action scenes,&nbsp;and stories in animation, as opposed to Western &quot;cartoons&quot; aimed primarily at children, as well as the exaggerated, fantasy-oriented and colorful style of Japanese animated visuals.

Anime TV series first found popularity <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/anime-set-outside-japan/anna-lindwasser?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">outside of Japan</a> in the 1980s and have continued to find larger&nbsp;audiences in the West. A number of famous anime shows&nbsp;originating in Japan - such as Cowboy Bebop or Dragon Ball Z - have found enthusiastic audiences for dubbed versions in <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/countries-where-english-is-the-official-language/best-world-journeys?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">English speaking countries</a>. The anime style has grown so popular in the US, it has stared to significantly influence the style and aesthetics of American animation. Shows such as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Afro Samurai, and Samurai Jack have borrowed heavily from anime in terms of pacing, subject matter, and design.

Ranking the greatest anime ever is certainly a difficult task, but it&#39;s time to settle this once and for all: which of the most popular anime shows crack the top 100., the top 10, or even the top 10 anime of all time?

What are the best reality shows on right now ? Are you a Real Housewives faithful or are you totally into reality shows set in the elements, like a Bear Gryllis situation?

This list of current reality programs also includes&nbsp;reality competition shows, like America&#39;s Got Talent and The Voice.&nbsp;&nbsp;

How about the latest ruler of current reality shows?

Sci-Fi Shows You Should Be Watching Now

100+ Current Sci-Fi Shows You Should Be Watching

Since about the early 2000s, TV audiences have been blessed with what many experts call The Golden Age of Television. In other words, TV has never been so darn good or so darn smart. This list features smart TV shows that are currently running new episodes, even if we&rsquo;re just anxiously awaiting for a fresh season.&nbsp;Here are the best shows with the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/current-tv-shows-with-the-best-writing/ranker-tv" target="_blank">best writing</a>, characters, and storylines that smart people watch.

There are several reasons why TV has never been better. First, there are more channels that cater to different tastes. Not only are cable networks like AMC and FX churning out Emmy Award winning dramas, but streaming channels like Amazon and Netflix, are also producing high-caliber programming that are not constricted to the tight guidelines typically associated with network television.

It&rsquo;s not just about cursing and showing a little nudity, it&rsquo;s about telling complicated stories that don&rsquo;t just wind up neat and tidy at the end of a half hour episode. It&rsquo;s safe to say that television is not just for the masses anymore to simply idle away wasted evenings, a smart TV show is a welcomed form of entertainment in even the most highbrow of houses.

You will see the total gamut of programming on this list. There&rsquo;s the animated comedies. It&rsquo;s true that a middling 8-year-old can watch The Simpsons or Family Guy and be extremely entertained. But, for the shows to truly be appreciated, an intellectual mind is needed to pick up on all of the nearly laugh-a-second nuances and understand the less obvious references.

Additionally, programs like True Detective, <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/ranking-the-best-seasons-of-sherlock/ranker-tv" target="_blank">Sherlock</a>, and Fargo, offer a lot of hidden meaning. The better read the viewer is, the more the material will come to life. It&rsquo;s not to say that a regular Joe Schmo can&rsquo;t enjoy a show like The Americans, of course they can. However, these types of shows aren&#39;t dumbed down. They require a person to actually pay attention, to be active spectators aware of narrative shifts, and to be able to put the pieces of a complicated puzzle together without a lot of hand holding.
