12 Quality Anime Series You Can Binge Watch On Netflix Tonight

The Fate series has some of the best action sequences in anime, with creative, innovative fighting choreography illuminated by vivid animation. The battles are definitely one of the strongest aspects of Unlimited Bladeworks, a mixture of magic and might setting it apart from other series.

This installment falls short, however, in the plot department. It sounds really cool (it's a high-fantasy all-out war for the holy grail), but it ends up being rather average and predictable. This isn't to say it lacks entertainment. The cast of characters is large, and varied in their personalities as well, which make for compelling interactions and good comedy. The protagonist Shirou is a largely generic hero, but as a result he's accessible to viewers, and his alliance with Rin makes you root for him. Overall, the series packs a lot of punch, and certainly gets you excited about the franchise as a whole.  

Kill la Kill is a wild ride by Studio Trigger (who seem to specialize in wonderfully wacky stories, like Space Patrol Luluco), but its intensity is both its draw and its potential setback. Kill la Kill is unique in premise and animation, and it celebrates female protagonists in a positive way, something sorely needed in anime. 

The over-the-top antics of the characters, however, can cross into the obnoxious. It's loud and unapologetic (just take a look at their outfit transformation above for a quick glimpse), and it may not be the most coherent series, but it's an experience worth giving a shot.
