Tier lists and IGN articles are carrying this channel

Garnt: Every single person has a mother Eren:

I'm incredibly biased, but parasyte is immaculate from story, to music, to animation. It's up there for a classic anime that people should see

I just watched FMAB for the first time ever and I can definitely see why it’s an S+ tier anime well deserved

It’s kind of cool that the editor’s note suggests that Gigguk’s opinion on JJK definitely changed since he saw s2

26:04 mins of Gigguk projecting his childhood onto the audience, I love it.

AOT is easily up there imo. I was the one anime guy of our friend group (now proudly a weeb) and AOT got my friends into anime. My friends/ roommates and I just got back from lunch and was looking for a quick show to pass the time before we go study/ to a birthday party later that day. We literally sat there and watched like at least 10 episodes. Then, when we went to the party, we all stood in a corner talking about AOT the whole time. We then left the party early to go watch more AOT. Easily my proudest moment I personally think A Silent Voice and Your Name is up there too. Those three are anime's I'd recommend for new people depending on their taste. Or Bocchi the Rock. I think Bocchi is the show that proves why animation is a great medium

The amount of kingdom heart ost’s garnt uses in his videos always warms my heart

Psycho pass season one will forever be something I consider a masterpiece (and the story should’ve just ended there.) it has a fantastic philosophy, plot, setting, animation, characters who were all interesting, and quite possibly the best antagonist/snti-hero in anime I’ve ever seen (Johan from monster was great antag too) AND LETS NOT FORGET THE SOUNDTRACK!

To me, dr stone is my comfort anime for whenever im sick or feeling down. Its just watching people go through millions of years of development in a few months thats just so satisfying to me

Re:Zero is severely underrated, yes it is popular but not popular because it's top tier writing with tons of subtext and details which 99% of viewers missed out. Show is so good at it's own people not even tried to look amazing details foreshadowing depth.

My sole complaint about A Silent Voice is that they had to cut so much of the manga out to make it a movie. And even then, they still did a hell of a job. Seriously, though, read the manga if you can. It is absolutely worth it and there is so much more to it!

Recently rewatched AoT in its entirety. Genuinely even better on the 2nd watch. Wholeheartedly agree with Gigguk on it representing anime as a whole. Even got my sister who doesnt watch anime into it.

So glad you brought up Psycho-Pass! I just got back into anime this year and it was recommended to me. At first, I was like idk if I'm gonna be into this but damn it's so good. Especially in 2023. I think it will age like a fine wine.

14:35 i'm a parasyte collector so i'll try my best not to be bias, the manga and anime are both filled with author's lines in between making you think about topics that you're actually met with in real life. that's really the reason why the actual fanbase is small but incredibly loyal. doesn't matter if the lines are thrown at you through migi, shinichi or just other characters. it almost feels like a philosophy book put into a story, thus why me and others love it so much.

in regards to code geass, it was revolutionary, as it birthed a whole new genre and protagonist, I'm of course talking about desk-kun and the whole edging scene.

14:52 the fact that this is what u remember from parasyte makes me truly sad parasyte is the most underratted anime like ever the message it has in the show and ending is amazing i have had to re-watch it 7 times by this point maybe more it shows that when u finally make it to where u want to be in life but then the story is already over

15:51 That's just telling how epic the ending of Code Gueas really is. Truly one of the best endings of any series/animes/movies I've ever witnessed.

The big reason I think the Monogatari Series missed this list, or rather one of several, is that the show's best arcs come late enough into the series and require enough context from the prior arcs that anyone put off by the series' weaker or less accessible aspects won't get far enough in to appreciate them. Bake has some great moments, particularly the date episode which capped off Bake's TV run, and I will defend "Karen Bee" arc from Nise as a really interesting series of character studies if you're already sold on the show, but I personally don't think the series truly hits its stride until the stunning "Tsubasa Tiger" at the beginning of Second Season, and that's a serious commitment for a show which is frankly a lot to take in.

The only complaint was about Dr. Stone. I think Dr. Stone just gets better and better and is way more unique than a lot of other shonen with how it approaches fighting and exploration, and the mystery aspect from the later seasons makes it super interesting and I love Senku as a character, one of the most exciting characters I've seen in manga and anime.

There might be some overlap, but I think you should do a similar list for the highest RATED anime of all time, would think that'd be interesting.

Where the hell is Gintama?..

how is dragon ball not here

Parasyte was done dirty. Genuinely the only anime other than Neon Genesis Evangelion that makes me reflect on the world at a philosophical level. The thematic work in Parasyte is so good and so are the character arcs and story progression.

Psycho Pass is spot on. The whole show is good, but Season 1 is absolute wonder. I will defintely rewatch it again someday, especially S1.

Steins gate 0 and the movie were amazing to me. The movie was cathartic as it put into perspective just how much Okabe went through to save his friends. And steins gate 0 really puts into perspective how both Gals were needed in order to truly obtain the "good" ending. It also shows just how stretched thin okabes sanity was.

I've maybe seen like half of the anime on this list, but overall your rankings seemed very fair :D The one I personally disagree with the most is Parasyte (to which I would put in deserved or maybe even should be more popular) because I think its themes on grief and the human condition are done in such an absolutely stellar way 💛✨

Let me explain Norgami's popularity.. starters.. the openers are BANGERS. Also at least to me, it felt like a season 2 of Soul Eater. Was more like it then Soul Eater Not. Not sure if other feels that way, but overall it's just a cool power system and character designs. Similar to Bleach... Story and shit were secondary to just cool character designs that people enjoy cosplaying.

Psycho Pass is a masterpiece. The only reason not to recommend it is the possibility of people watching the second season.

Thank you for the ranking, it really made my day 😊 And special thanks for the Psycho-Pass shout out!❤🔥 Sad that it's not as popular as it deserves, but I hope more and more people watch the 1st brilliant season after your video

Where is Gintama? MAL literally has three Gintama seasons in Top 10

I'm still confused as to how Monogatari and TTGL are missing from the top 50.

I cannot believed redo of healer didn't even get a mention.

I agree with attack on titan. It may be already one of the most popular anime but anime is still relatively niche in comparison to shows like GOT and Breaking Bad, if there's any one anime that deserves to stand up there with those massively mainstream masterpieces its AOT

20:06 she’s not a doll she’s a former child soldier amputee with MOUNTAINS of ptsd which IS interesting (and heartbreaking) to watch

Parasyte is underrated af actually

Why do people seem to ignore Steins Gate 0? Like I watched both that and the OG series and seriously enjoyed all of it. The second last episode of Steins Gate showed Okabe getting a video message from an alternate timeline version of himself, and when you’re watching you’re just like “wtf was that?”. And when you watch Steins Gate 0, you get to see that Okabe’s story. He couldn’t save Kurisu no matter what he did. And the world completely fell into ruin because of her death. ZerOkabe knows he’ll never see Kurisu again, but what he CAN do, is save another timeline. Do people not understand that? In order for OG Okabe to succeed and get Kurisu back and get the original series ending, ZerOkabe had to give up the person he loved. To me, Steins Gate and Steins Gate 0 should always be paired together. But people seem to disregard Zero completely and I don’t get why 😭

I have never seen another sci-fi pistol that is more badass than the goddamn Dominator in Psycho Pass. It is one of the first anime I have watched when I was a kid, and it still remains as one of my favorites.

damn the editing on this is great! love the vid

Thank god you put steins gate up there. I think steins gate is one of those you have to give a watch, along side things like death note or FMA even if it's not your cup of tea. Psych Trillers in Anime usually know how to hit it. And just watch FMA. I got an old friend INTO anime besides dragonball because of Konosuba. So deserved. But a great anime that is a bit outside of view a horror I recommend to people is Higurashi(when they cry) but as I said I like the psychological anime.

Dr. Stone is legitimately not Popular Enough lol.

While I think it's completely fair to say Bleach fell off hard at the end (even the die hard fans would probably agree on that one) the mangaka was severely ill at the time and rushing to get an ending out. Given how TYBW is going so far with changes to the manga it's entirely possible the ending is getting rewritten/extended. Let them cook

Attack on Titan is literally the only anime on this list that I have seen but it was enough to make me an anime simp now. I am therefore on a quest and I'm planning to watch almost if not all the animes you ranked in this video. Guys, wish me luck on my journey and if you have any recommandations of what to watch first, be sure to let me know!

this video made me remember how old Grant is, he heeds to remember that most of the people watching anime now started watching around 2012-2016 and that's why Akame ga Kill and Blue Exorcist were popular

I watched CG 4 times and it SLAPPED everytime. The last arc of chaos was magnificent.

I'm a romance comedy addict. Also, that's kinda unusual with a guy in his early 30s... But I'm proud of it! and I'm glad you put Kaguya where it deserves to be. Lowkey also depressed Monogatari isn't on here.

You broke my soul on that YLIA placement 😢

I do wonder if Garnt is ever gonna acc watch Fma:B especially now that Joey has finally read HxH. Recently rewatched it myself and i do still think it has one of the best overall stories in anime and i love the way it slowly unravels the history of the world, its like a fun shounen version of 20th century boy in that sense

13:29 it's probably voted up because of two factors: the manga is REALLY good (and season 2, which stuck to the manga and didn't do the early-2000s "we'll make up our own shit" stuff, was way better than season 1), and a new season is coming out in 2024.

“Erased in really” _One of your elementary teachers wants to know your location._

I think what you mean with spirited away not feeling like normal anime, is that they feel less like anime and more like Disney films. It's what i love about them, but it doesn't feel as trope reliant as other anime stories, instead it just does whatever it wanted

21:32 DR STONE IS DESERVED, YOU TAKE THAT BACK GARNT

Steins;Gate 0 just makes the first season even better.

Mob Psycho 100 is an actual perfect show. It should get it’s own tier. Because unlike AoT no one complains about the ending or how it was released. It was a very tight 3 seasons of perfect Studio Bones animation and direction. The soundtrack too, fuck it’s so perfect.

The blue exorcist manga SLAPS and the character writing and world building just keeps getting better and better. Honestly it’s very underrated because the anime adaptation was mid.

Syd trying to not interrupt Garnt’s stream- LEVEL IMPOSSIBLE

18:07 This whole monologue nailed “me” in 2012. I had literally JUST started watching anime at 22. SAO was the second show I watched after starting my own Japanese cartoon journey with AOT and I was *hooked*. For that reason, it will always hold a special place in my roster and I will always defend it (despite, yes, sometimes being very cringe).

Parasyte is barely even talked about, I don't think it's at all overrated, underrated if anything.

I'd definitely recommend reading the Bleach manga. The anime cuts out some things, has filler issues if you had watched it while airing, and most importantly it works well to get it's depth and message across. I somewhat understand if you can't pay much attention to the writing when the series is so long to watch, but having it in even more depth and written out should hopefully show why I, and many other people thing that it is heavily underrated and does not deserve the hate it receives. Just a suggestion though, not every story is for everyone. And I think that the tier list did actually turn out quite solid, great video!

Y'know, I really didn't think Angel Beats was a particularly sad anime; certainly not to the point of being one of those tiresome stories that seem to think making the audience cry equals art, at least. The entire setting of the show involves giving the cast a chance to come to terms with their traumas, find acceptance, and move on, and the characters that get "killed off" are by the very mechanics of the setting stepping off the stage _because_ they achieved inner peace. The post-credits scene even shows reincarnation is a thing, and that the one character who got left behind had also done the same. Granted, some of the characters' backstories would come across as tedious tear-bait in a vacuum, but they're just that: backstories, past traumas for the characters to overcome, which they achieve for the most part with frankly less dramatics than I'd expect from most non-"tearjerker" shows. It's a bit like fate/stay night, of all things: yeah, just about every focal character has a backstory that is tragic almost to the point of parody, but the "present" comes across as a lot more hopeful, the characters seem surprisingly well-adjusted and capable of enjoying themselves despite those backstories, and events don't constantly conspire to enforce contrived suffering onto them for the sake of cheap drama. By its conclusion, everyone has moved on and is ready to experience a new, hopefully more enjoyable and fulfilling next life. IMO it's bittersweet at most, rather than tragic, and there's enough comedy and lightheartedness during the thing to take the edge off even that. My tolerance for drama and tragedy is pretty low compared to most- I watch anime for entertainment after all, not to feel bad -but I had no problems with it at all

I wish I had a link to the the tierlist. I wanna do it too.

i was surprised by your take on dr stone because, i haven't finished it, but i always find the time to reread it and i just don't get tired of it, its weird but there are no moments where i just : that was fun and im done, maybe when i finaly finish it

I am a 32 year old man. When I was 30, I watched Violet Evergarden with my mom who does NOT watch anime. At all. In fact, she explicitly does not like animation. She likes "real" things. I forced my mom to watch Violet Evergarden after watching it once by myself. I assured her that it would be amazing. We watched it together, held each other and cried. It was an unforgettable moment I now have with my mom and I cannot thank the creator of Violet Evergarden enough for giving that moment to my mom and me.

my gosh psycho pass is so underappreciated its score is literally lower than 8.4 it's one of those stories that has everything... EVERYTHING

very much agree on MOB PSYCHO100 and Kaguya-sama. They deserves so much more popularity than they have rn

commenting double to say again, glorious editing, really really fantastic stuff

heyyy that part where sydney asked for her outfit was just too cute!! so cute that he is very supportive.

My man really tried to slide Anohana in to slightly overrated and expect me to not notice. It is absolutely deserved, I am willing to throw hands over that fact

1 thing i think you will really enjoy is kimetsu no jojo, a great parody, beautifully done, fight scenes better than most isekais, characters are blended so well, and it progresses the plot with reasonable pace

I have been ranting bout Psycho Pass Season 1 for almost half of my life and I wont stop till everyone watch it. Everything about it is just scream perfection from its Animation, Story, Music and Message. Like fr, just watch the first 3 episode man

that manic laugh when he put SnK in "not popular enough" actually killed me XD

I went back and rewatched all of Psycho Pass recently and damn… It’s kinda like SEL in that it feels like it predicted a lot of the future

Just gotta say in regards to one piece, I only just started watching in June or July this year and I just about finished dressrosa(on EP.737 or so) and I have had some of the most wonderful and emotional times with this show, the pacing to me never really matters much cuz I love the world and characters so much. It also doesn't hurt that I never read the manga so I have no comparison to make. Just wanna finish with it's definitely gonna be great watching to it's finish!

FUCK I ALREADY SAW THIS VOD I THOUGHT WE GOT A NEW ONE. Still really god damn funny, love this man.

the ending with the ol smash sounds was fantastic xD

4:36 I totally though he was gonna say: "I respectfully... am going to ban you from twitch chat”

It was hilarious that Gigguk has to put disclaimer when rating JJK

love the persona 5 music in the background 👌

ima put this out here rn this is mostly garnts tier list, most of us here have diffrent opinions like most why is this here i would put not popular enough. overall great vid keep up the work :)

Im not going to lie, I really like Fairy Tail, I can understand some hate towards it but I dont understand why its seen as such an awful anime, it’s an incredibly fun journey imo

The not popular enough section is just pure self indulgence

5:46 When that Toradora OST kicks in 😭💔

6:20 bro the toradora ost almost got me in my feels. It's been so long since i last heard it. 😭

Mirai Nikki. At first, I was shouting, "what? Why?" But then I remember the drag that the second half of the series was. The ending gave me rose colored glasses to the series. I loved that ending so much that I forgot what happened just before it.

Dr. Stone is the only anime I hard disagree on. Its slow but the unique battles are a breath of fresh air. In fact, Dr. Stone has some of the most realistic battles (not saying accurate) because the team is a lot more balanced than just firepower and heal in every other show. There is a lot of pre-planning that goes into each and every single task/fight. And even in critical situations, its not always about how to defeat the enemy with firepower but rather how to win back the fortress style.

Mr. Bean magic jumpscare had me shook to death for a second

Re:Zero should be in "NOT POPULAR ENOUGH!", imo.

where is vinland saga, it would definely go into the not popular enough category

Ippo should be more popular than Haikyu imo. This episode was so funny, Garnt saying stuff about being a teen was so spot on. I remember loving elfen lied so much as well LOL.

i LOVE the disclaimer for jjk i'm living by it

Dr. Stone is like the Big Bang Theory of Anime. It's for people who want to feel like their watching a "smart" show without it actually being smart at all.

Oshi no Ko has some of the best animation quality, music, editing, voice acting, is heavy on social commentary and also points a mirror at the viewers a lot and makes them think about themselves and their own actions. Easily one of if not the best anime ever made.

Still can’t believe He did bleach dirty like that 😂

20:19 the dying mom story is fucking heart wrenching. I ugly cry everytime I watch it.

Nice Memelist, but when those the real thing come out?

Surprised Kill la Kill was on there but not Gurren Lagann

I wish Togashi good health.

Cannot believe he hadn't seen FMA:B... Fairy Tail was actually a good anime, sooo... SAO part 1 was amazing, it went downhill after that... Kill la Kill is such a good anime! I think it's so underate. The plot twist was just...! 10/10 Another is such a good anime!

Props to the editor for the haruhi reference. Game recognises game.
