What decent length anime to watch next?

Got my wife more into anime and she is very sad after seeing the ending of MHA, and wants something similiar-ish that has the same sort of feel. She has watched DB/DBZ/Super, Naruto, Demon Slayer, FMAB, CSM, and JJK. She loved them all, but Demon Slayer DBZ and MHA are her favorite, and I am not sure what to suggest yet that could be closer to at least the vibe of MHA. She did not like Vigilantes or HxH.

Rurouni Kenshin (Original)

Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken 2020

Magi

Yu Yu Hakusho (dub, same creator as HxH but it's closer to a DB set in our world vibe)

Hajime no Ippo

Tiger & Bunny

One punch man for something similar to super power related

Another super power related is toaru series with people having different unique powers

Fate zero is also good serious anime involving heroic spirits weils powers and weapons close to their lore

For something that escalates to very big crises then fairy tail is akin to mha as well

supermike123452026-01-26 15:55

huge mha fan myself and i dont think there are many with a similar feel. it was really unique, because it had a lot of american influence with the history of comic books and all. maybe something old school in a similar vein. cowboy bebop and maybe og trigun. any of the shinichiro watanabe stuff, like cowboy bebop, samurai champloo, space dandy, and a bunch of other stuff all has a similar flair to it. good luck! (some of my oersonal favorites to try might be FLCL, outlaw star and the R.O.D. ova and R.O.D. the TV, the ova came first and ita chronological.)

Little witch academia is a good option is funny and it has a good plot

My wife loved Norigami. Two great seasons of excellent art

ThunderMustard882026-01-26 16:21

Does she like anything other than Shonen anime you think?

xMushroomking2026-01-26 16:29

I don't think she has watched anything other than Shonen so I am not sure. Before meeting me the only anime she's seen was Naruto/shippuden.

ThunderMustard882026-01-26 16:32

Don't be afraid to show her the little rom-com animes too. My wife got really into those with me. Toradora hitadori, should be its own post

Ok-Cod52542026-01-26 17:14

**Avatar: The Last Airbender** - is a cartoon and technically not an anime, but it's a good length of 61 episodes and great watch if she hasn't seen that.

I cant believe no ones recommended these, but Black Clover has the same feel as MHA, its set in the past though so its not all futuristic, and its more magic based but its super good, and its got over 150 episodes. I think its like 180 or so.

BLEACH. BLEACH IS AMAZING. Its also got about 400 episodes, amazing anime. If she liked the DB series it means she definitely doesnt mind the older style of animation, which was my one and only hold up with bleach but I still love it. Its got a lot of "filler" arcs, most of them are like half canon but they're all good.

xMushroomking2026-01-26 18:18

Edited the post. She has also watched Bleach and TYBW.

No-Annual-72762026-01-26 18:18

Black clover it is!
