Anime to Watch (Animania)

This is Animania's "Anime to Watch" list.  He sent me a list of 10 anime but I haven't seen enough of 3 of them and already placed 2 of them on a list of my own so I'll only be talking about 5 of ones on the list.  They're all good anime and you should at least give them a shot.


Log horizon animeLog Horizon - It seems like Sword Art Online at first sight but once you watch it, you realize that it is quite different.  Of course, they all get teleported into their favorite MMO-type game.  However, absolutely no one has any idea of what's going on and there are a lot more than just sword skills being used.  Shiroe, (someone who made it onto my smart shounen protagonist post) is the main character.  He finds a few friends along the way and decides to create order in the game world with them until they figure out how to get back to the real world.  Oh, and to make it even better, season 2 just started up not too long ago.





Mahousensou-animeMagical Warfare - This is actually one of, if not the best magic anime I have seen.  Takeshi Nanase is at school during break (poor guy) and he finds a strange girl unconscious on the ground.  He picks her up and carries her into the infirmary as any gentleman would.  Still, she improperly assumes he has malicious intentions and shoots him.  The bullet does not kill him but transforms him into a magician, for which she apologizes.  Now, he must figure out just what is going on and what to do with his new powers


6d1aa24224Akame ga Kill - A very untypical story of a small town boy striking out and going into the big city.  For one, there are gigantic monsters he has to fight to get there.  Secondly, he ends up on a team of assassins rebelling against the corrupt capital.  This anime has a lot of unique weaponry and great fight scenes; watching this is definitely a must for any action lovers.







Black Bullet - Black Bullet is set in a near future where humanity has been driven into a corner by giant, virus carrying monsters called gastrea. As its counter attack, humanity sets up a special civil security force dedicated to eliminating gastrea. The story follows civil security officer Rentaro and his partner Enju as they take on assignments as well as deadly adversaries.


Soul Eater - The world is one where the Grim Reaper has created a school to teach kids how to collect souls from heinous criminals and witches (sounds crazy huh?).  The story follows a girl named Maka and her partner (which means literally human weapon in this world) Soul Eater as they complete various missions, make allies, and get caught up in dire situations.
