So just thought I'd share the animes I watched in my first year of watching anime, and give some short personal opinions on what I thought of them for fun. Of course it's all my opinions.



Bocchi the Rock.

First anime, absolutely dope, I wanted to learn guitar after watching it. :D Music slaps, animation is great, and the humor was actually hilarious. I NEED S2



Spy x Family.

Really good, and its manga counterpart was the first manga I bought. Love the animation, the characters are great, only WHY does Frankie get so little screen time. D: Still awesome anime, love it, and LOVING S3!



takt.op Destiny.

Okay so this wasn't actually "bad" really, in fact it has a great score, great animation, and did seem to try to make a unique story, but ultimately it lacked believable character development, which makes sense when it sadly was made mainly to promote a video game, which flopped anyways. Still enjoyed watching it, but not amazing or anything.



Demon Slayer.

I mean not much to say, everyone knows it, lots of people love it. The score, animation, and characters are all great in my opinion, yeah the story isn't complex or anything, but how can I resist watching, "a boy with asthma fighting Michael Jackson"? :D



My Dress Up Darling.

Also super good, watching S2 now. Loving it so far, and loved S1. Love our boy Gojo being way too innocent.



Demon Lord, Retry.

Just pretty bad. Okay like S1 was alright, not great but it was alright. Nothing out of the ordinary, pretty generic, etc., but it was okay if you didn't care too much and just watched. But S2 was just terrible, I never even finished it. Just felt so generic by that point, the story wasn't interesting, they tried to "develop" the characters but failed pretty miserably IMO. Don't recommend.



The World God Only Knows.

Absolutely loved watching this. The animation, music, characters were all just fun to watch, there was good humor, and the story was even pretty cool even if a little on the nose. Only thing is I thought S2 felt kind of slow, while S3 felt rushed. Like I got a bit bored through S2, while S3 could have had a couple more episodes even.



Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai.

"It was perfect. Perfect. Everything!" No seriously I absolutely love this series, have NOT watched the new season yet though; just finished the movies. But yeah the anime was so good I have nothing to complain about. Now the first movie was also amazing, really enjoyed it. Second 2 movies were kind of boring though I have to say. Felt like there was a lot more potential for them.



Solo Leveling.

Great for "in-the-moment", while you're watching that. After that, it's nothing super special. The animation and score are great, but the story is even more bare-bones then Demon Slayer, and the character development... is virtually non-existent. Loved watching it, but completely forgot about it afterwards, and it's only on this list because I looked through my CR history.



Attack on Titan.

Note I just finished S2, so I haven't "watched" this series yet, but thought it's worth including still. So far, S1 and 2 were a blast to watch. They really don't go easy on anything, just full-on with everything. Does a great job with the animation, tons of fight scenes, but knows how to develop characters, and not just focus on animation only, like Solo Leveling or even Demon Slayer does.



Takopi's Original Sin.

I really enjoyed this personally, as I thought it tackled the themes it wanted to, in a really well-rounded, developed way, and didn't drag anything out either. Felt "to-the-point", while still having all the necessary development of characters etc. Plus the animation style was super unique and really cool to watch.


Angel Beats.

Just finished this anime. It was peak. It had amazing music, animation, very good voice acting, a well-written story/plot, and leaves the perfect amount of "room for interpretation" I think, while still leaving you with a solid, clarified ending. Highly recommend.



Your Lie In April.

I mean yeah this was one of the first animes I watched, though many, many of you have probably seen the show, I don't wanna elaborate too much and risk spoilers or anything, but it was extremely well-done, and you could really see passion was put into the show like Attack on Titan and Angel Beats.



...and I think that wraps it up! Again I don't know if this was a "good" first year of anime, or if I should've watched others, most notably One Piece of course, but I'll get around to it sooner or later. Feel free to leave any anime suggestions as well, always want to see more, especially some of the older "classics" that may not be on my radar.
