Castlevania

Before someone comes up with the pikes and torches, let’s just say that we’ve included ‘Castlevania’ on this list because even though it’s American-produced, it’s heavily influenced by Japanese animation and Ayami Kojima’s visual style… So yeah, let’s call it “an anime.”

‘Castlevania’ is one of the animation jewels that you can see on Netflix, and it can be a good alternative if you are looking for a dark fantasy anime full of terrifying creatures and action scenes with heart-stopping choreography.

As action and beautiful animation is not everything, we also recommend this anime because it has a well-written, three-dimensional cast of characters and just the right mix of humor and drama.

death note

‘Death Note’ is another of the great recent classics, and that of course It’s got all the no-nonsense elements of a good mystery story and a few twists and turns that knock you out of your chair.. The good pace of the story and the level of “cliffhangers” is very similar to what you may be used to from ‘Attack on Titan’, so it’s another perfect anime to watch almost often.

The plot revolves around light Yagamia high school student who one day finds a notebook that gives him a very special ability: he can kill anyone whose name he writes on its pages.

Tokyo Ghoul

Tokyo Ghoul

This is another anime that starts from a base with an external threat that endangers humanity. In this case, the Ghouls, beings that feed on human flesh, have been committing murders all over Tokyo.

The young Ken Kaneki one day is brutally attacked by a Ghoul, and after some events ends up becoming a creature half Ghoul and half human. ‘Tokyo Ghoul’ is an anime that is not afraid to delve into the darkest side of human beingswith well-defined characters and a very impressive visual style.

Code Geass

Code Geass 2

input ‘Code Geass’ It may not seem like it has much in common with ‘Attack on Titan,’ but it’s also a powerful story about a group of people who go up against the rest of the world to protect their home.

In this case we are talking about a world where the British Empire has taken over a large part of the globe and a Japanese rebel organization is trying to liberate their land from the invaders. This anime has it all: mecha, epic battles, brainy political intrigue, and teen storylines.

And although the comparisons are odious, it must also be said that it is impossible not to compare Eren Jaeger with Lelouch vi Britania, the implacable protagonist of ‘Code Geass’ who does not hesitate to go to certain extremes to achieve his goals.
