With the way streaming is set up in the anime industry, you can’t watch everything everywhere.

The #coronavirus is giving people the opportunity to watch more anime, since everyone’s on lockdown.

Amazon has a decent catalogue of relevant anime shows.

They cover genres like:

• Shounen
• Slice Of Life
• School
• Action
• Fantasy
• Romance

And a few others.

Here’s the recommended anime to watch on Amazon prime.

 

1. Toradora

Toradora is one of my low-key favorite anime shows in the slice of life genre.

Funny as F, colorful personalities and satisfying plot twists that pay off the more you watch it.

 

2. Babylon

Babylon is a 12 episode anime series. Produced by Revoroot. It’s in the mystery/psychological genre and adapted from a light novel.

Plenty of violence and thriller.

 

3. Angels Of Death 

Angels Of Death shares similarities with Death Note, Higurashi, Danganronpa and other anime

It’s a horror series released in 2018.

 

4. Kabaneri Of The Iron Fortress

Kabaneri Of The Iron Fortress is one of Wit Studio’s anime that I prefer over Attack On Titan.

Either way – if you like AOT, this is a good alternative and worth watching.

 

5. Rage Of Bahamut Virgin Soul

Rage Of Bahamut Virgin Soul was made in 2017 by MAPPA studios. And is adopted from a card-game and has a lot of violence, magic and adventure elements.

 

6. After The Rain

After The Rain, adapted from a Manga was made in 2018 by Wit Studio’s. And is a Seinen/romance.

 

7. Elfen Lied

Elfen Lied is one of my favorite horror anime. And is one of the biggest as well.

Expect a lot of violence, gore, sadness and depressing scenes from start to finish. With a little humor when it counts.

 

8. The Great Passage

Aired in 2016, The Great Passage is a slice of life drama series. With 11 episodes in total.

It’s about the characters love for dictionaries, and their goal to create Japan’s greatest. But they make it more interesting than it sounds on the surface.

 

9. Grand Blue Dreaming

Grand Blue Dreaming made in 2018 is a slice of life comedy Seinen. And is a high rated show across the board.

 

10. Sankarea: Undying Love

Sankarea: Undying Love is an odd ball series, but still good with a unique plot.

For a horror series with the kind of romance you wouldn’t expect, it’s a worthwhile anime. And a rare breed that stands out.

 

11. Vinland Saga 

Vinland Saga is one of the most solid anime in 2019. Made by Wit Studios.

It’s a generally high rated series and likely won’t disappoint.

 

12. Scum’s Wish

Scum’s Wish is an intense romance/drama series, made by Studio Lerche.

If you’re expecting something soft and gentle, this ain’t it. Otherwise it’ll be right up your alley.

 

13. Attack on Titan S1, S2 & S3

Attack On Titan season 1 isn’t available. But season 2 and season 3 are up on Amazon.

This anime doesn’t need an introduction. It’s the most famous horror anime in the industry.

 

14. Dr Stone 

Dr Stone can be watched on Amazon. But it’s the dubbed version so keep that in mind.

This anime has a season 2 on the way and it’s one of the more unique shows of recent years.

 

15. Inuyashiki Last Hero

Inuyashiki was one of the most popular anime in 2017, made by MAPPA studios.

It’s comparable to Death Note, Parasite, Terror In Resonance and other anime.

 

16. Blade Of The Immortal

Made back in 2019 by LIDENFILMS. The same studio as Rokudenashi.

It’s an ONA (original net animation).

19. Hyouka

Hyouka takes boring concepts and makes it fun and interesting. And is made by Kyoto Animation, one of the best studios in the business.

Claymore’s one of the most underrated action/fantasy series. Especially with female characters.

It’s made by Madhouse and is has some of the best fights I’ve ever seen.

 

21. Your Name

The famous Your Name is on Amazon in both dubbed and subbed, the original version.

It’s one of the most famous anime and successful movies of all time.

 

22. RWBY: Volume 1, 2, 3 & More

RWBY Volume 1 and many other volumes are up on Amazon. Made by Rooster Teeth in the USA.

It’s one of the very few international anime to gain massive attention and success in the anime community.

 

23. Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku

Love Is Hard For Otaku is self explanatory. And was made in 2018 by A-1 Pictures. Same studio as Fairy Tail, Blue Exorcist, and plenty of others.

 

24. Welcome to the Ballroom

Made by Production I.G, the same studio as Psycho Pass, this anime is about dancing. And the many things that come with it.

It’s different by design.

 

25. Saekano: How To Raise A Boring Girlfriend

How To Raise A Boring Girlfriend was adapted from a light novel and made by A-1 Pictures.

It’s one of my personal favorite Ecchi anime. And feels better laid out as far as the usual cliches you see in these types of shows.

 

26. No Game No Life

No Game No Life is a legendary Isekai anime. And one of the biggest to ever do it.

You can watch No Game No Life AND No Game No Life: Zero on Amazon. Both are available.

 

27. BANANA FISH

Banana Fish is one of the most recommended anime from 2018, made by MAPPA Studios.

It’s an odd mix of violence, action, drama and shoujo. Wrapped into one series.

 

28. Avatar: The Last Airbender

Just like RWBY, this anime is one of the few accepted shows from the USA. It’s popularity and the quality are unmatched for a non-Japanese anime.

 

29. Dororo

Released in 2019 and adapted from old material, Dororo is one of the underdogs of 2019. And is well received in the anime community.

 

30. Amagi Brilliant Park

Amagi Brilliant Park, an anime that goes unnoticed and is made by Kyoto Animation.

It’s about a theme park that’s in danger of going out of business. And has some magic themes that gel with the story.

 

31. GATE

GATE is about a passage way that opens up in Japan, leading to a new world with old fashioned ways of living.

As a military series you can expect violence, and by the anime’s nature – some adventure as well.

 

32. Death Parade

Death Parade is an anime about life and death in a nutshell. The main characters are “stuck” between Heaven and Hell, and will be judged by the overseers.

Based on their behavior, they’ll e thrown into Heaven or Hell if they’re deserving of either one.

It’s a deep series and not the most popular.

 

33. Yugioh

Yugioh is a classic and will always be remembered for it’s contribution to the anime industry.

Both season 1 and other versions are available on Amazon.

 

34. Dropkick on My Devil!

Drop Kick On My Devil, mad in 2018 by studio Nomad, is like a sadistic comedy series. Dark comedy.

It’s gone on to have a 2nd season.

 

35. In Another World With My Smartphone

In Another World With My Smartphone is an Isekai series.

The main character is struck by the lightning of God accidentally, and God grants him a new life as an apology.

This anime does have its funny moments.

 

36. Re:CREATORS

re:Creators is another Isekai anime, but in this case it’s “reverse” Isekai.

Characters from another world end up in the ordinary world, and everything changes.
