If you’ve been looking for an introduction to anime, these are your way in.
Sword Art Online
Great if you like: World of Warcraft, Dungeons & Dragons, RPGs
Not only does the story offer everything from adventure to romance, it's full of nods to RPGs that gamers will love. Plus the music and action sequences are absolutely sick.
A-1 Pictures
Darker Than Black
Great if you like: Marvel, crime shows, mystery
This show plays around with a familiar question — what happens when humans are suddenly granted superpowers without their choosing? We love to see it explored in comics and movies, so anime is no exception.
Bones
Blood+
Great if you like: Vampire mythology, dark fantasy, horror
If you thought vampire mythology couldn't get any darker, think again. Blood+ offers a creative twist on the creation and destruction of bloodsucking demons, along with badass fight scenes starring one of the most engaging and sympathetic heroines in anime.
Production I.G.
Black Lagoon
Great if you like: Bourne films, crime dramas, dark comedies
Sure, the action sequences are pretty gripping — car chases, gunfights, hand-to-hand combat — but the show never uses its big-production-style fight scenes as a substitute for a compelling plot. Also, there's no magic, so it's a refreshing change from a lot of the fantasy themes found in anime.
