don't know your taste but personally I'd just start one piece as now is the perfect time to catch up with it. By no means is it my favourite anime at all, but I do think it is the most popular fiction in the world, and if u aren't caught up with one piece by the time it's revealed ur prolly gonna feel left out or get spoiled. The rest are already finished so u have all the time. Also I recommend watching some boring bits on 2x or use OnePace website

ShenGoaren2026-01-06 19:21

Agree with using One Pace, it's a lifesaver for watching older episodes with tighter episode lengths thanks to the editing

HarvickFan_42026-01-06 15:13

Attack on Titan. I'm watching it for the first time now, and it's just so good. The animation, the score/soundtrack, the voice cast(Japanese), the plot. Everything. It doesn't play around, it's very serious and they really don't go easy on anything, it's all or nothing. Highly recommend, it is my first anime in its genre(started a bit over a year ago with slice-of-life and action animes), and it was such a good choice.

Andy_Not_Wrong2026-01-06 15:14

Depends on your tastes. What have you watched and liked previously?

Kostas_Skywalker2026-01-06 15:18

I really liked Jujutsu Kaisen and Full metal alchemist , so what I’m looking for is explosive fights with more than decent animation .

Civil-Praline4742026-01-06 15:51

Then watch fire force first as the final season is about to start releasing next week

Large_Ad39072026-01-06 15:58

You might check the anime which Jjk author gege has said is his biggest inspiration and if you watch it without hearing negativity opinion said by certain fandom on the internet.

BigAdhesiveness9302026-01-06 15:16

AOT or One Piece. Personally I’d say AOT since it’s very easy to get into and the story is consistently good. Kingdom is also up there but season 1 and 2 animation is so ass I’d just read the manga

Kostas_Skywalker2026-01-06 15:27

I watched a few episodes of kingdom and the animation was atrocious so when I will watch I will just read a summary of s1 and s2 as then start with s3 , I have also watched just the first episode of AOT and dropped it but I know that I should watch it because it gets better .

Baby_Yod42026-01-06 15:43

Yeah I’m not surprised you feel like that. What I did is I read season 1 and 2 manga and then I went back to the anime from season 3.

Idk if you’re the type that likes to read it cause I know some people don’t. If you can read manga though you should do that over the reading a summary. What season 1 and 2 covers is so good and shapes the rest of the story as its backbone. Also a lot of payoffs that happen in season 3 onward just wouldn’t hit the same if your only knowledge is a summary

mr__dufresne2026-01-06 15:27

Once you watch attack on titan you wont find anything else of that level

Pure-Giraffe-37162026-01-06 15:31

AOT.

I_am_your_oniichan2026-01-06 15:33

Kingdom or Attack on Titan if you want to watch the best thing that anime can offer

Fire Force or My Hero Academia if you want to turn off your brain

Naruto or One Piece if you have unlimited time on your hands

timpkmn892026-01-06 15:34

Just give them all a shot

Civil-Praline4742026-01-06 15:42

Everyone in the comments is telling you to watch AOT or one piece first and usually I would be right alongside them because I’ve seen one piece 4 about to be 5 times and it’s my favorite anime, highly recommend, and AOT is really fucking good, my hero just finished their show so that’s also a good show to watch because it’s a complete story now, same goes for Naruto that’s a classic that you must watch at some point.

HOWEVER!!! Fire force is about to release their final season and it is by far the shortest of the shows you mentioned , I don’t know your pacing for how you watch shows but if you’re a normal person by the time you’re done with the first two seasons season 3 will be close to done so it’ll be perfect, if you’re like me then you could finish fire force by tomorrow and be ready for the first episode of s3 next week lol if you want reply back and I can give you a short-ish break down of why I love each of these shows but imo I’d start with fire force and then AOT and then my hero and then Naruto and then finally the master piece which is one piece because that’s gonna take you the longest to get through but it is by far the most worth it so if you end up watching that first I’m fine with that lmao.

Also I’ve never made it past the first 2 minutes of the first episode of kingdom because the use like 100% CGI in the first season and it is fucking horrible, apparently all the following seasons are much better but I just can’t get past s1 because of the CGI it’s so horrible. But if you’re willing to push past that I’ve heard kingdom is a fantastic show.

EDIT: Also whatever you do please for the love of everything don’t watch whatever this one pace bull shit is. People will tell you it’s a better way of watching one piece because it’s shorter and it cuts out filler but one piece has one of the lowest filler rates of all anime at 9%-11% over 1155 episodes but this one pace bullshit cuts WAYYY more than that, it takes arcs that are 80-100 episodes and turns them into 40-50 episodes, and you lose a lot of valuable parts of the show that oda wanted you to see but because people are impatient or lazy that want it to be sped up but it ruins the story. I’ve see one piece almost 5 times now like I said and every time I watch it I realize I missed so much the last time I watched It. Like how something from like the literal first episode connects to something literally 1000 episodes later. Oda didn’t do anything by accident. Yes maybe at some points he added some filler to give himself or his staff a break but I think there’s only 1 or 2 arcs I skipped through but even then I didn’t just skip the whole arc I would skim through the episodes to make sure there wasn’t something hidden. Anyways sorry for the rant lol but please please please don’t watch one pace watch the normal show. That’s all for my ted talk lol

Kostas_Skywalker2026-01-06 16:09

Thanks man everything you wrote was very helpful but the thing is that I trust you that one piece worth it bout I think that it’s gonna take me half a year to finish it .

Civil-Praline4742026-01-06 16:26

That’s why I suggested to watch it last because it is the most time consuming, or watch it at the same time as you watch other anime just only watch like 1-2 episodes a day type thing. One piece is so worth it that I wouldn’t worry about how long it’s gonna take you to catch up because even if it took you 2 years to catch up the one piece still will not have been found and they will still be releasing episodes lol. One piece is a journey. Think of starting one piece as the same as every anime mc when he starts off on his adventure to save the world or be the strongest, they put in countless hours and effort into getting to that point (all the anime you’ve watched up until this point lol) and now they are on their way to the most memorable time in their whole lives, the adventure!(you watching one piece lol) most mcs don’t regret going on their adventure. Maybe some wish they could go back to their old world lol but everyone is grateful they went through what they went through to finish their story (you catching up to one piece lol) and in the end everyone is living happily ever after (except all the people that die in every show lol) but yeah enough jokes, seriously, don’t think of one piece as this long slow dreadful crawl over 1100 episodes, think of it as your own adventure, like you said it’s gonna take you probably 6 months to watch it, that’s like a training arc or half an adventure in a 12 episode show lol just change your perspective on it and it won’t seem so bad. Break it down into how many episodes are in each arc, the first arc is like literally 3 episodes anyone can watch 3 episodes and then after that the next arc is 61 eps which is definitely more than 3 but much less than some of the shows you’re thinking about watching, maybe that makes it more digestible if that makes sense.

Anyways whatever you watch I hope you enjoy, if you need any other recs or advice I’ve seen close to like 500 something shows now and I’m a complete degen who can finish whole shows in one sitting lol so just let me know haha

Durinthal2026-01-06 15:45

Naruto.

Why? I rolled a d6 and it came up with 6.

Large_Ad39072026-01-06 15:53

My more suggestions

Jojo bizzare adventure

Bleach ( without fillers if you want to skip )

Dragon ball og, dbz kai and super

Erased

Parasyte

Death note

Code geass

Black clover

Shiki

Baki

Record of Ragnarok

Kostas_Skywalker2026-01-06 15:58

Thanks for the suggestions man , of the list that you gave me I have only watched black clover and record of ragnarok , I thought of bleach too do you think it would be the best choice? Is the first season’s plot and animation any good or will I get bored ?

Large_Ad39072026-01-06 16:18

You can give it a try till 63 episodes.

For me I hooked up with the soul society arc and many others I have heard who started watching bleach currently got hooked up since the first arc.

If don't you get hooked in soul society arc, then you can say the anime is not for you.

In the end it comes to subjective taste and preferences.

Fun fact: i started bleach in 2019 when there were a lot of negative opinion about it and I was curious why so I give it a try after Naruto, from then onwards bleach became my personal favourite.

Main thing that hook me was soundtrack and ost. It had one of the best ost in anime.

If you get hook in bleach just skip every fillers following guide rule because it will get annoying in arrancar arc where fillers are suddenly in between of ongoing cannon arcs.

shadowmdJoestar2026-01-07 15:43

U will hate the first arc probably (like me) and the start of the next one as they feel directionless, but as it progresses and u get to the plot u will be invested for sure

Local_Pickle_47172026-01-06 17:56

Based on what you said you've liked in response to someone else I'd say Naruto. It has similar elements to both FMA and JJK.

ShenGoaren2026-01-06 19:25

If you're a fan of hand to hand combat I'd suggest Naruto.

It has some of the best of its time,

Rock Lee is a fan favorite!

If what you want is over the top impact framing and explosions in fights though I'd look at To Be Hero X. It's a recent release but it's damn good animation
