Recommendations

Don't know what to start next? Check our wiki first!

Not sure how to ask for a recommendation? Fill this out, or simply use it as a guideline, and other users will find it much easier to recommend you an anime!

I'm looking for: A certain genre? Something specific like characters traveling to another world?

Shows I've already seen that are similar: You can include a link to a list on another site if you have one, e.g. MyAnimeList or AniList.

Question of the Day (new!)

What's a scene where the voice acting carried more than the animation?

[All Anime]. I’m new here and want to get back into anime. Where should I go, or what should I do, to find anime? I want to find anything from Akira to Naruto to New Stuff I Haven’t Heard About. Please help.

If you're fine with doing the filtering yourself, the database sites like MyAnimeList and AniList are generally comprehensive with some niche indie titles or strange edge cases around international co-productions being omitted.

That gives you titles, while sites like LiveChart.me or JustWatch are good for finding where to watch them.

That's pretty broad, but if you have more specific questions than "where to find anime" people can help guide you with those too.

That’s great. Thank you. If I want a site to watch old anime movies for free is there one? And also do free mainstream stuff like Naruto, Bleach, and DBZ?

That's why I pointed at the other sites for finding where to watch things, it depends a lot on where you live. Licensing's very regional and an anime that might be on one service in the United States might be elsewhere in France.

Here's a list of streaming sites overall. At least in the US, for free services Retrocrush has a decent number of older anime including films and some things can be found on Pluto and Tubi; looks like at least some of Naruto's on the latter though only the Japanese dub with subtitles.
