(The following is the synopsis for the light novel.) The story takes place on a continent where chaos rules. While the chaos creates disasters, the Lords of the continent can protect the people and stop the chaos because of the power of the Crest (Saint’s Mark). But one day, these Lords start fighting each other for the Crests to gain power and throw away their promise of stopping the chaos. There is Silka, a hermit mage who is angry with the Lords for forgetting their promise, and Theo, a wandering knight who is training to someday free his hometown from the tyrannical rule it is currently under. As they make an everlasting vow to be master and servant, will both of them be successful in removing the chaos in the continent?

There are a lot of elements that make shounen-ai gaining popularity; some of them are so lighthearted and funny, with unthinkable gags that make you crack up, while some of them hit where it hurts and move you to tears.

10. Vassalord.

Vassalord. dvd
[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="B00BUGLVL0" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 1 " aired=" March 2013 "]

Let's start this chart with a OVA full of interesting characters, funny gags, and a mild boy-on-boy action! Johnny Rayflo is a rich vampire, with only perverted thoughts into his mind. Charles J. Chrishund, alias “Cherry”, is his vassal and a vampire who works for the Vatican. Since Charles refuses to drink human blood, Johnny is kindhearted enough to give it to him. These two men will fight the crime, as their personalities will end up clashing, springing a lot of gags! Maybe just one OVA wasn't enough for viewers to fully enjoy Cherry and Johnny's journey, but we have to say that this anime has some potential. While it's true that it turned out to be too short, it's even true that the art style is good and it's very enjoyable. The shounen-ai part is all up to these two characters that keep on bickering over trivial stuff, for example the fact that Johnny calls Charles “Cherry”. Well, even though they argue, it's clear as daylight that the two share more than meet the eyes. What else is there to say? If you like vampires, nice fights and a hottie drinking blood from the other, you should catch up on Vassalord as soon as you can!


9. Antique Bakery (Seiyou Kottou Yougashiten: Antique)

antique bakery dvd
[sourceLink asin="B00GPL0IQ4" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 12 " aired=" July 2008 – September 2008 "]

Meet Ono, a thirty-year-old man who once confessed to his beloved Tachibana. Meet Tachibana, who wants to start a pastry shop. Then, meet Eiji Kanda, a former wrestler who now wants to become a pastry chef. Last but not least, meet Chikage Kobayakawa who acts a bit like Tachibana's bodyguard, but is the most awkward whatever he does. Put these four ingredients together, and the cake... no, the comedy is ready! Fourteen years after confessing his love to Tachibana, Ono is now an amazing pastry chef, and a gay playboy. No one seems to be able to resist his charm, and it looks like even straight guys fall for him with just one glance. Yet, Ono's charm doesn't affect the only one it should: Tachibana. With these premises, it's pointless to mention how much of a good comedy this anime is. Ono and Tachibana's relationship is the funniest thing you'll see. Tachibana doesn't hold feelings for him, and Ono, who can't count on his charm to impress him, will try his best as a world class pastry chef. Episode by episode the strangest things will happen; ex-boyfriends from France will appear and make a ruckus; two adult men will dance under the rain; Tachibana's past will knock to his door, opening an old wound that seemed to be forgotten. Antique Bakery has a crescendo of absurd happenings, that you either won't believe your eyes or will start shipping characters as if there's no tomorrow. If you are a beginner of shounen-ai genre, you should start from this sweet-as-a-cake story that will make you burst into laughter, and warm your hearts up!

This story revolves around Shima, a lonely boy who once jumped in the ocean without thinking twice, to try to get his grandfather's picture back. When Shima is about to drown into water, though, he is saved by a strange man... Strange to the extent that he is a merman. Moving in with Shima, this merman – called Isaki – will act all immature and childish, and yet will manage to create a deep bond with Shima. The point is that he is of a different species, so how will they relationship be affected by their differences? This is a touching shounen-ai story about loneliness and the importance of bonds. Shima, as well as Isaki, have both experienced a deep loneliness and they seemed to be searching for someone to care about them. As in the beginning it may seem that their personalities clash, they will soon find a way to get along and to get to know each other better. This anime packs a lot of things, in a little time – as it's just one OVA – and yet it manages to mix perfectly funny moments, with emotional ones.

7. Tight Rope

[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="B00ISKS9UC" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 2 " aired=" May 2012 – June 2012 "]

Ryunosuke Oohara is the heir of the fourth boss of a yakuza clan. He seems unable to step back from fights and always causes trouble. Everyone expects him to act accordingly to him being a future yakuza boss, but he just doesn't care. All Ryunosuke seems to care about is his childhood friend Naoki. Truth is, Ryunosuke is in love with Naoki since they both were children. He has only one dream: to build a happy family with him, and to hell with the yakuza! Tight Rope was born as a manga, from the wise pen of an amazing mangaka, Natsume Isaku and adapted into these two-episode series. While the two episodes are very faithful to the manga version, we can safely say that this story is a little masterpiece full of fluffy moments and hot-headed characters who can't just seem to act how the world expect them to. While it's clear that Naoki loves Ryunosuke back, he thinks to his friend's future as a boss of the yakuza. Yet, Ryunosuke will show Naoki what a man in love can do, and in the end, Naoki will throw away the mask behind where he was hiding, and finally admit the truth! This shounen-ai anime is the one you want to watch when you feel tired, maybe with a cup of hot tea in your hands while outside it's raining.

Love Stage dvd
[sourceLink asin="B01C6S1Z2K" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 10 " aired=" July 2014 – September 2014 "]

Let's move on to another crazy beautiful show, born as a manga from Eiki Eiki, and adapted into an anime later on! This shounen-ai anime is probably one of the funniest you will deal with. Ichijou Ryouma is a famous actor who absolutely didn't think he could be into guys; what's more he was very certain to be a lady killer. One day, he meets once again Izumi Sena, a person he had met years before during a shooting. Since Izumi is all dressed up like a princess, for Ryouma is love at first sight. There's just one problem... Izumi Sena is a boy! Overcoming the shock of Izumi being a boy, the two start to hang out, but while Ryouma accepts his own feelings towards Izumi, despite him being a male, Izumi just can't stand Ryouma and his persistence. Yet, when pushes come to shove, Ryouma will show Izumi all his good sides: he is supportive, caring and a very kindhearted person. Izumi will get to know Ryouma bit by bit and accept his feelings; at last, their love will bloom. This shounen-ai anime is so funny and cute it hurts. It's full of gags, the characters are all well-depicted and Ryouma and Izumi's love story is amazing. If shounen-ai is your piece of cake, but you still haven't watched this one, it's time for you to catch up!


5. Loveless

Loveless dvd
[sourceLink asin="B0009J2Q5E" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 12 " aired=" April 2005 – June 2005 "]

Our 5th position is a delicate and deep shounen-ai anime called Loveless, that can touch your heart and shake it very badly. Our protagonist is Ritsuka Aoyagi, a 12-year-old boy who is in a very dark period of his life: his brother has been killed, and his mother is insane. One day, Ritsuka's life changes. It's when he meet Agatsumi Soubi, who claims to be his dead brother's friend. Soubi introduces Ritsuka to the world of “fighters” and “sacrifices”. Basically, two people with the same name fight together, and while one fights, the other protects. After discovering that Soubi and his brother shared the same name and fought together, Ritsuka decides to trust Soubi and the two of them will cooperate to discover what happened to Seimei. This shounen-ai anime explores the meaning of love, while facing other deeper themes. The loss and what happens after a loss to those who remain; the step people take from childhood to teenage, and teenage angst; last, but not least, the deep bound Ritsuka and Soubi will create. It's clear how Soubi loved Seimei, and while he can't possibly forget him, he begins to see in Ritsuka something that reminds him of Seimei; on the other side, Ritsuka will face his feelings towards Soubi, and will see them grow and change. Words are pointless now; just hurry and catch up with Loveless, but don't forget handkerchiefs!


4. This Boy Is A Professional Wizard (Kono Danshi, Mahou ga Oshigoto Desu.)

[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="B01BH78UMY" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 4 " aired=" February 2016 "]

Now, let's dry our tears after Loveless, and let's move on with the 4th position. This time it's about wizards we're talking about! Chiharu Kashima is a professional wizard. Toyohi Utsumi is a wanderer who happened to meet Chiharu by chance, one night. For Toyohi it's love at first sight, and Toyohi being a straightforward person, he doesn't miss a chance to confess to Chiharu. Since Chiharu is bashful and with not even a tiny bit of self-esteem, he mistakes Toyohi's honest interest for a mere curiosity toward wizards. How will their relationship develop? This shounen-ai show is full of tenderness. On one side there's Toyohi who literally put all his efforts to court Chiharu. As the two meet and get to know each other better, Toyohi gets more interested and realizes that Chiharu is the one for him. Chiharu, a man with a difficult past and a lot of duties as the captain of the Wizard Bureau's Crisis Countermeasure Division, is at a loss. He likes Toyohi, but his bashful nature pushes him into a corner. It's up to Toyohi to show him that he likes Chiharu as a man, and not because he is a wizard. With its 7-minutes-only four episodes, This Boy Is A Professional Wizard will steal your heart and leave you craving for more!


3. Classmates (Doukyuusei)

[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="B01DDDRUG2" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 1 (movie) " aired=" February 2016 "]

The 3rd position had to be Classmates. This story revolves around an honor student, Rihito Sajou, and Hikaru Kusakabe, a guitar player who is very popular with women. These two boys attends the same high school, and while Sajou is quiet and serious, Kusakabe is straightforward, hotheaded and easygoing. As their personalities may clash, something happens while preparing for the chorus festival, and love strikes. Classmates was born as a manga first, from Asumiko Nakamura's wise pen. It's not a stretch to say that this movie adaptation doesn't disappoint as it follows the manga version step by step. Sajou and Kusakabe will face all the trouble of teens. So they will fight, argue and then they'll make up as their bond will grow stronger. For as serious as Sajou is, he won't miss the chance to admit that he loves Kusakabe, going to the extent of wondering why Kusakabe even fell for a bookworm like him. In those insecurity moments, Kusakabe will become his strength. We think this movie is really worth watching. Whether you like shounen-ai, or you prefer something different, this story shows a slice of life through where everyone of us passed. Classmates holds a nostalgic feeling, and the right amount of funny moments as well. Be sure to catch up to it!

2. Super Lovers

super-lovers-dvd
[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="B01DD339DU" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 10 " aired=" April 2016 – June 2016 "]

Born from Abe Miyuki as a manga, Super Lovers gained a lot of popularity thanks to a big range of unbearably cute characters! This anime version doesn't disappoint, and it revolves around Haru Kaidou, and his three brothers. Haru grew up in Canada, but as soon as their parents divorce, he has to move in with his father, and so he's taken in Japan. There, he discovers to have a new family with two little twin brothers to take care of. The moment everything settles, Haru turns 17 and his mother calls him back in Canada, asking for “help”. That's the moment when Haru and Ren meet. Ren is an 8-year-old little boy without a family, saved by Haru's mother from an orphanage. Haru will have to tame the little beast, and take care of him for an entire summer. Time passes and it's finally time for Ren to move in Japan and live with Haru. The age gap that made them like actual brothers in the beginning, turns into something deeper. As these two live together, they will face a lot of hardships. The twin brothers don't accept Ren easily. Ren is introverted and barely speaks; Haru fights with himself since Ren is still a teenager. In the end, Haru and Ren's sweet love will bloom in a natural way. Super Lovers is a shounen-ai anime that faces a lot of important themes, like the fear of being abandoned, or the love towards family. If the premises of the age gap between Haru and Ren scare you, no fear: Haru is still a considered man who doesn't harass children. So what are you waiting for? It's time to drown into this fluffy world!

1. No. 6

no.6 dvd
[sourceLink asin="B005AQH5CK" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 11 " aired=" July 2011 – September 2011 "]

Our 1st position had to be No.6, like literally, it had to be No.6. The reason is that this show went almost unnoticed, and yet it is a rare gem in the shounen-ai universe. No.6, born as a novel first from Atsuko Asano, is an amazing story that lived up to the expectations of those who read and enjoyed the novel version. The story revolves around Nezumi – meaning “rat” – and Shion. Shion lives in the city of No.6 where everything is nice and beautiful, and life is peaceful. Nezumi lives the “true life” of those who are rejects outside the walls of the city. One stormy night Nezumi appears in front of Shion's home, covered in blood and almost dying. Shion put all his efforts to save him, and his actions resulted in him being degraded from his position in the society. Now deprived of a brilliant future, Shion adapts to the new situation, while Nezumi disappears. When Shion, years after, will be in danger, Nezumi – who never forgot how Shion helped him – will appear and save him. That's the moment when Shion, now freed from obligations toward the city, will discover the flip side of the reality. Orphans, sick persons and rejects try to survive just outside the city. That is Nezumi's world. On this background their relationship will gradually develop, as the two try to find a way to fight the system! No.6 is a story that deserves a lot of attention. It is amazing per se, and it depicts a society that lives a lie, while people die outside the cities. If the plot is wonderful and full of deep meanings, the relationship Nezumi and Shion have is just one of a kind. It's not melodramatic, nor rotten. It's simply pure and simple as it seems: they love each other, and that is all what matters to act accordingly. This story deserved more attention, and maybe one or two episodes more. Since it's perfectly fine even as it is, we recommend that you all enjoy this little masterpiece that will find a special place within your hearts!

Shounen-Ai anime used to be sparse back in the day, but thank goodness they aren’t anymore. Today, we’re blessed with a yummy selection of anime. For those anime fans that like their anime tinged with bromance and mild guy-on-guy action, shounen-ai is most probably your boon. Shout out to all the BL lovers: let’s check out our top 10 shounen-ai anime! And to those new believers, feel free to spend your late nights binging away on these yummy boys. Trust me, it ain’t easy making the top 10 pick. I’m sure some will be familiar and some not so much. Nevertheless, let’s get down to business and check out the top 10 shounen-ai anime!

10. Gravitation

Gravitation dvd
[Information episodes=" 13 " aired=" Oct 2000 - Jan 2001 "]

Here, we have an anime about Shindou Shuichi, an aspiring pop idol, who struggles to make the deadlines for his debut with chart-topping songs. Shuichi meets Yuki Eiri, who crushes his dreams by saying Shuichi is talentless. Initially, propelled by a thirst for revenge, Shuichi completes his song but ends up diving deeper into a relationship with Yuki. There’s no need to defend why Gravitation makes the top 10 list. As a Shounen-ai fan, this anime was probably the first boy-on-boy anime you’d encountered as you began your BL journey. With its adorable pairings and storyline set in the music-industry, Gravitation sets the bar high for the rest of the Shounen-ai anime to come.

9. Gakuen Heaven

Gakuen Heaven dvd
[Information episodes=" 13 " aired=" April 2006 - June 2006 "]

High school setting, student council involvement, uniformed boys, this anime is simply waiting for you to gobble it up. It has almost every element a typical harem anime would, which entails drama, miscommunication and romance. Plot-twist: the protagonist is a guy and so are all the characters vying for his attention. While there are multiple manga volumes that predict different outcomes for the main character, Itou Keita, the anime only chooses one pairing to focus on. Gakuen Heaven makes the 9th spot on our list because there are lots of bishounen in school uniforms. If that doesn't take the cake, then the storyline is also quite entertaining. The protagonist struggles to find his uniqueness to belong in the school and along the way, he creates intense relationships with the others. He will end up falling for the right guy (if you are rooting for the right team). Not to mention, the OP is incredibly catchy.

8. Tight-Rope

Tight-Rope dvd
[Information episodes=" OVA 2 " aired=" May 2012- June 2012 "]

Manga turned anime, Tight-Rope is one of Natsume Isaku’s popular creations. Natsume sensei’s manga are always delightful to read with her aggressive seme’s and reluctant uke’s. Tight-Rope tells a story set in the world of the yakuza where the heir of a yakuza family, Oohara Ryunosuke, rejects his inheritance to protect his childhood friend, Satoya Naoki. If you like Shounen-Ai, you cannot miss this anime. The boys remain quite brutish as they are yakuza and speak with a refreshing Kansai accent! Nevertheless, audiences still get to enjoy boy-on-boy heated make-out sessions that are dribbled through out the anime. With only two episodes, Tight-Rope leaves us begging for more and we can only hope to see more of Natsume sensei’s works adapted into anime in the future!

7. Loveless

loveless dvd
[Information episodes=" 12 " aired=" April 2005 - June 2005 "]

Here is an anime that focuses beyond its Shounen-ai genre. Loveless features a twelve year-old, Aoyagi Ritsuka who loses his older brother mysteriously. Ritsuka then meets Agatsuma Soubi and uncovers his brother’s involvement in a fighting pair. Soubi being the “Fighter,” needs Ritsuka to inherit his older brother’s role as the “Sacrifice.” Their relationship develops beyond that of just a fighting pair. The art in Loveless is plain beautiful, making it delightful to watch. However, this anime makes top 7 because it goes beyond its shounen-ai genre. Instead of a typical romance tale, Loveless features supernatural elements and its characters are extremely layered (like a freaking onion). This is certainly one to check out even if you're not a shounen-ai fan as it actually has a plot-line.

6. Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shiteru (Betrayal Knows My Name)

uragiri wa boku no namae wo shitteiru dvd
[Information episodes=" 24 " aired=" April 2010 - September 2010 "]

Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shiteru is an anime about Giou Yuki who has a supernatural ability to read people’s emotions. He becomes troubled with his mysterious powers and meets Crosszeria Luka, a sexy demon (dura). The boy-love tones exist but you really have to dig deep and read between the lines. Marking the midpoint of our top 10 list is Uraboku, short for its long title. Uraboku has almost all the elements of a good anime. It has sexy demons, save-the-world drama, fighting, adventure and (gay) romance. Plus, lots and lots of bishounens, AKA beautiful boys. Although the plot-line leaves much to be desired. So if eye candy is not enough for you, then pack your bags and head out.

5. Hybrid Child

[Information episodes=" OVA 4 " aired=" October 2014 - January 2015 "]

So, Nakamura Shungiku probably outdid herself this time, with a short series about android dolls and their relationship with their masters. While the doll and master spiel is not new, Hybrid Child stands out as it tells the story of three interconnected pairs in the most dramatic and tear-jerking way. The first two stories revolve around the struggle between the masters and their android to find love – both incredibly sweet and typical of Nakamura sensei. However, the last story is one to remember. Set in a historical background, this arc is about the android creator, Kuroda, and his regretful love with Tsukishima, a fallen swordsman. Be warned: there’ll be sand in your eyes.

4. Patalliro!

Patalliro dvd
[Information episodes=" 49 " aired=" April 1982 - May 1983 "]

If you haven’t watched Patalliro!, you definitely must check it out. Patalliro! is an anime about the boy-king, Patalliro, of the country of Marinera. With the sudden death of his father, Patalliro becomes the heir and faces many threats to his life. As he attempts to evade death, a gorgeous English M16 agent, Major Jack Bancoran joins him. The two make a dynamic pair which is hard to find in today’s anime. Spearheading the dawn of shounen-ai in anime, Patalliro! has a comedic story with lots of bishounen. With all the current anime styles, Patalliro!’s art style is indeed unique and gives audiences a blast from the past. Not sold yet? The boys wear purple eyeshadow and they have hair so long that it touches the floor. Also, Patalliro is so sassy and witty, his gags are sure to make you laugh out loud.

3. Love Stage!!

[Information episodes=" 10 " aired=" July 2014 - September 2014 "]

Love Stage!! is one of the many lovechildren between Eiki Eiki and Taishi Zaou. Adapted from its popular running manga, Love Stage!! is an anime about handsome pop idols, super stars and a shy but talented budding actor. If you like Gravitation, you’ll probably enjoy Love Stage!! as well. The crisp and bright artwork elevates the shounen-ai genre. Now, we’re in a new playing field of character development and comedic relief. Sexually tame but fear note, there’ll be plenty of kissing. So, let your imaginations run wild. I’m sure we’re all hoping there’ll be a season 2 in the making!

2. Junjou Romantica

[Information episodes=" 12 " aired=" April 2008 - June 2008 "]

Finally, top 2 of our list is most likely the king of shounen-ai. With three different arcs interchanging throughout the anime, Junjou Romantica features pairings that are not only unique in their own ways, but also hilarious to cheer on. This gift bestowed upon us by Nakamura Shungiku features three strong pairs that reveal their glorious boy-on-boy loving through much obstacles and drama. The main pair being Usami Akihiko and Takahashi Misaki, shows the most drama as Misaki fervently tries to evade Usami’s advances and hides his growing feelings. This anime is in its third season, so HURRAH! I hope it never ends. If you’re new to shounen-ai, go forth and binge away.

1. Sekaiichi Hatsukoi (World’s Greatest First Love)

sekaiichi hatsukoi poster
[Information episodes=" 12 " aired=" April 2011 - June 2011 "]

Sekaiichi Hatsukoi tops the list with not much gap between Junjou Romantica. Both creations of Nakamura sensei, Sekaiichi continues to take place in the publishing world of Marukawa Shoten. True to its title, this anime is about the rekindled first love between Onodera Ritsu and Takano Masamune. Both characters, though an unfortunate misunderstanding, separated in their high-school years, but are unexpectedly reunited in their publishing office as boss and subordinate. Why is Sekaiichi placed first? Most likely due to the way the story draws back into both characters’ paths and reveals their suppressed feelings towards each other. Seeing a rekindled relationship come to life is incredibly satisfying, albeit it drags out a little. Nevertheless, Masamune is the ultimate seme and it’s nice to see such an aggressive yet stoic character fall deeply in love. As for Ritsu, the way his resolve crumbles is simply satisfying to watch.

That concludes our top 10 list. I hope you’ll get a chance to check out these Shounen-ai anime, if you have not already done so. Frustratingly, there is still such a lack of good shows in the shounen-ai genre, and it would be wonderful to see our choices expand in the near future. Nevertheless, let’s celebrate the animated boy-on-boy anime we have now! And, leave your comments down below on your favourite shounen-ai anime and why. :)

You can never go wrong with manga these days, since so many provide us with every form of entertainment whether you’re into action or drama. As many of us know, the shounen genre has really exploded over the past couple decades and much of its momentum has continued well into our present moment. One of the mangaka that has taken much of the sub culture by storm is Mashima Hiro, who’s best known for his remarkable work Fairy Tail. The series has climbed the manga rankings numerous times, and has also received several awards for its excellence. While Fairy Tail has become a household name over the years, Mashima Hiro has had other successes with his other one-off mangas but more notably Rave, which is the manga that really paved the way for him in the manga community.

6. Nishikaze to Taiyou

[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="" text="Natalie" url="http://natalie.mu/comic/news/30023" ]
[Information_manga volumes="1 (One-Shot)" published="April 2010" mangaka="" genres="Comedy, Shounen"]

Nishikaze to Taiyou is just one of Mashima Hiro’s one off manga that helped gain some traction in the vast world of the mangaka community. In Japanese, the title means The West Wind and The Sun (西風と太陽) with nishi meaning west, kaze meaning wind, and taiyou meaning sun. Much of the story revolves around the adventurous treasure hunter named Zephyr and his companion Sol, as they scour the world in search for a statue of a goddess that sits atop a mountain. When they finally come face to face with the statue they were overjoyed, but what they didn’t expect was the statue to come alive. One shot manga are quite common in Japan and typically is a great way to make a name for yourself as an upcoming mangaka. One shots are usually found in convenience stores which carry tankoubon in one big volume, and consist of various other manga that others have created. While much of the attention had been focused primarily on Fairy Tail at the time, Mashima’s work still received positive reception from fans and was mainly used as a way to put his attention toward something fresh and to stay motivated with ideas. It also gave us a glimpse of his artwork and how he manages to retain the same formula going into many of his works, such as the art direction and story plot.


5. Hoshigami no Satsuki [Starbiter Satsuki]

hoshigami-no-satsuki-manga
[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="" text="Magapoke Official Twitter" url="https://twitter.com/magapoke/status/736399116620566532" ]
[Information_manga volumes="1 (One-Shot)" published="September 2014" mangaka="" genres="Action, Adventure, Comedy, Ecchi, Fantasy, Shounen"]

Hoshigami no Satsuki is another one shot manga by Mashima Hiro that stars Satsuki Mujika, a talented female swordsmith who’s desperately in search for 100 demon swords that were stolen from her master. With the help of her friend Jirou, the two set out on a journey to seek out the stolen items and return them to their rightful owner, while overcoming various challenges that stand in their way. Satsuki’s unique swordplay and magic allow her to manipulate the length of her wakizashi, and increase its power the more she uses it. Throughout her arduous journey she meets up with other friends who assist her, along with Jirou, to ensure that whoever is behind all of the thievery will be stopped. Those who are quite familiar with Mashima’s work knows that his art style tends to follow along the same path as Fairy Tail. Satsuki shares a resemblance to Erza from the series, but with the wacky personality that Wendy brings to the table. While Mashima is known for his use of magic throughout his many works, especially Fairy Tail, surprisingly he stuck with a more traditional approach and focused mainly on the use of swords, with subtle hints of magic thrown in. The humor and action definitely sell the story a lot more, with the occasional perverse scenes to grab your attention but with a more relaxed approach. Nonetheless, the story of a childish yet determined woman along with Jirou to provide more fluff, is sure to keep you engaged and curious to know more.


4. Monster Soul

[sourceLink asin="1612625894" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information_manga volumes="2" published="Dec 15, 2005 to Aug 11, 2007" mangaka="" genres="Action, Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy, Shounen"]

The world of Elfenland is filled with mystery and adventure, and is inhabited by both humans and monsters. The Black Airs are a group of monsters who are widely considered to be the strongest out of all the monster forces, and they now must band together to face off against the humans in an all out war for survival. Aki is the leader of the pack and not your ordinary human, as he hides his true features under his big hood. When he becomes overwhelmed by rage, he transforms into an S class Werewolf and will destroy anything in his way. His tormented past has led him this far, and with the help of Mamii, Touran, and others, they intend to leave a mark wherever they go. Each of the members has their own unique ability, as we described Aki’s earlier. Mamii is the big sister of the group and her soul power is that of a mummy, using her bandages to attack her opponents while addressing her wounds when hurt. When all hell breaks loose everyone must rely on their monster soul ability to ensure that destruction doesn’t overtake their world, and that stability can be maintained. This action packed shounen is full of crazy moments, and you’re constantly reeled back into it just to see if the Black Airs can defend their turf. The humans had won the battle before sending many monster forces into hiding, but it was only the Black Airs who continued to strive and master their craft to take care of anymore threats that would take more lives. If you find yourself wanting to take a small break away from the Fairy Tail world, check out Monster Soul for an exciting twist!

3. Monster Hunter Orage

[sourceLink asin="1935429493" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information_manga volumes="4" published="April 2008 - May 2, 2009" mangaka="" genres="Action, Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy, Shounen"]

It seems that Capcom really took a liking to Mashima’s work and provided him with the permission to write a series around the very popular franchise. Monster Hunters as their name implies, make it their life purpose to seek out and hunt the very strongest of monsters, and to take whatever remnants they find along the way with them. The story focuses on Shiki, who was taken in as an apprentice under the tutelage of Gurelli as a child. However soon after Gurelli’s death, he returns to his master’s hometown of Akamaaya to join a guild and encounters a young girl named Irie, who by surprise to Shiki is actually Gurelli’s daughter. From that moment onwards the two set out together to track down the legendary Miogaruna, which was Gurelli’s dream and now they will live it out for him. If you love Monster Hunter then you’ll most likely enjoy this series because it takes every piece from the game itself, even down to the weapons used, and really immerses you in all of the action. There’s sheer enjoyment in every page because every new encounter is filled with a variety of challenges, much like the game itself. Think of this manga like a read only version of the actual game, but then throw in some Fairy Tail elements such as character design and action, and you have yourself a wonderful treat. The story really isn’t much of the selling point since you’re really invested mostly for the outstanding battles with huge monsters, but you still move forward because you want to know whether Shiki and Irie will actually be able to live out Gurelli’s ambition.

2. Rave: The Groove Adventure

Rave The Groove Adventure manga
[sourceLink asin="1591820642" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information_manga volumes="35" published="July 1999 - July 2005" mangaka="" genres="Action, Adventure, Comedy, Drama, Fantasy, Romance, Shounen, Supernatural"]

This is the series that started it all for Mashima, and catapulted him from the bottom of the barrel to the top of the shounen food chain. The story looks at the Continent of Song, as it’s currently facing a severe crisis that’s left everyone in panic. The secret society known as Demon Card, are abusing their powers to bring destruction upon the townspeople and leave no survivors behind. The only power capable of putting a stop to the Demon Card and their sinister Dark Bring, are the rave stones which when wielded, can bring about enormous power. However the stones were scattered across the globe five decades ago, so now the rave master bears the responsibility to collect all of the stones and restore peace once and for all. Haru Glory is the main protagonist in the manga, as we follow him on his journey as a young rave master to track down all of the stones before it’s too late. As you read deeper into the story you start to see just where Fairy Tail got its inspiration from. As with much of Mashima’s finest works, the story looks at a young hero who must now come face to face with reality, and stand up to various obstacles that they must tackle with strategy and intellect. There’s a certain spice to Rave however that truly gives it its own vibe, and that comes in Haru’s overall journey itself. The enemies he encounters are far beyond his level of comprehension, but because of the amazing friends he meets along the way his adventures become more and more gratifying not only for him, but also for the reader. Haru is honest in his ways and lets nothing belittle his ambitions to set things straight for the sake of humanity, and to bring people together to fight for peace. It’s most definitely worth reading simply because it’s sort of like a precursor to the Fairy Tail series, and gives you a glimpse of just how Mashima mashed together various ideas and inspirations from other famous mangaka, and created something incredible of his own. Think of Fairy Tail as a continuation from Rave: The Groove Adventure because it truly feels that way after reading through the entire series.

Number one really needs no introduction because quite frankly, we introduced it numerous times in almost every paragraph. It just goes to show you how spectacular this series is, and how far Mashima has come as a story and art mangaka. Lucy and Natsu find themselves in hot water when an evil guild plots to destroy every other guild out there, including the one they’re currently in. So the two along with other members of the guild, band together to ensure that Fairy Tail stays afloat and any evil threat that stands in their way will be taken care of. We can assume that many of you Honey’s fans are very well aware of Fairy Tail and its story, so we’ll save you the deep explanation and go right to the meat of it all. This series has won countless awards such as the 33rd Kodansha Manga Award, and the Japan Expo award both for the shounen category. It has spawned countless adaptations including its very popular television series, an ongoing sequel, and two very well received animated films. We could go on for days about just how great Fairy Tail is in terms of awards, but what really makes it shine is in its story. While the world itself is most surely far from reality as we know it now, there’s still this sense of believability that perhaps someday this Fairy Tail world could come true. Every character is so likable because we can all relate to their struggles in every way, which really makes the world seem so vivid and responsive. All we really need are some magic powers, some flying mascots, and a large group of friends and we could create our very own Fairy Tail thanks to Mashima’s brilliance.

Closing Statement

Despite not having a large collection of hits under his belt, Mashima has managed to silence the critics and bring truth to the phrase, quality over quantity. His works have lasted for more than a decade which is extremely good when you consider just how many manga are out there. We highly recommend that you dive a little deeper and get to know Mashima more by reading some of his other works such as the emotionally driven Pray for Japan, and his Rave spin offs, so that you can really understand just why Mashima creates the way he does. Let us know what you think of Mashima Hiro’s work down below, and as always be sure to share our articles to keep everyone buzzing! As always, if you want to know about all the latest buzz straight from the bee’s nest in Japan, be sure to keep it locked here at Honey’s Anime.

When Japan puts together an anti-paranormal force catered to diverting supernatural and paranormal proceedings, some would assume it meant spending the day around a circle table confiding their life to the divine eight ball, or dancing their fingers around a Ouija board. However, for the Supernatural Disaster Prevention Office; unfortunately, things aren’t always so laid back. With their lives filled with the ups and downs of the paranormal, it pays to take a dip back into the pool of the normal every now and then. These two dolls; Yomi Isayama and Kagura Tsuchimiya, are a perfect taste of what kind of magic lies between two girls and a Pocky stick. No supernatural flare, and no paranormal hubbub. Just good ol’ lady to lady lip tasting fun in the backseat of a minivan. If you’re already dying to know what type of sight can come from this, then head over to episode 4 of Ga Rei: Zero and see it all for yourself. Apparently that Pocky stick just wasn’t sweet enough to handle their deep rooted cravings.

Finally, in middle school, Akari Akazawa gets to reunite with her best friends Yui Funami and Kyouko Toshinou. With the trio back together, it only made sense that Akari join the “Amusement Club”, a group created by her friends dedicated to pure entertainment. But when it comes to amusement, the saying ‘the more the merrier’ can be held as prayer; thus, when Chinatsu Yoshikawa comes looking for the now defunct Tea Club, the three girls convince her to climb aboard the train to nonstop fun. Let us inform you, these girls certainly know how to enjoy themselves. Rolling in at episode 12 of YuruYuri, these ladies seem to take the word pleasurable to a whole new level. Or should I say Chitose Ikeda does, given that she’s the one bearing the surprise lip kisses up her sleeve. Whether she’s out of her mind or crazy in love is up for debate, but the way she’s passing out kisses from girl to girl is what we all can agree to be a beautiful sight for sore eyes. At least she’s got enough for everybody. Sharing is caring after all.

In the real world, young girls sleep with their favorite teddy bears for a little comfort to get through the night; in the world of Yuri Kuma Arashi, teddy bears are kept at a safe distance for fear of the human race being turned into a six course meal. Now is probably the right time to start pulling some threads don’t you think? Believe it or not, it wasn’t always a fight for survival against the flesh eating teddies. Humans and Teddy bears were once harmonious; but with those days now in the past, the only thing left to maintain peace is what is known as the “Wall of Severance”, built to keep man safely on one side, and evil teddy on the other. That is, until two naughty bears sneak their way past the wall and into Arashigaoka Academy. Now, lovers Sumika Izumino and Kureha Tsubaki find their Romeo and Juliet fantasy falling to pieces as they try and fend off these cotton stuffed forces of evil. That’s not to say that this show is in danger of losing out on its share of to die for love scenes. Even evil teddies can find themselves wrapped around a love complex, and Yuri Kuma Arashi lays it all out on the table for us to enjoy. There are enough lips smacking on lips to fill anyone’s appetite, and these dirty minded stuffed animals know how to keep their eye on the prize. Seemingly always up to no good, these peeping tom teddies stumble upon some hot gal on gal action while peeping through a school dorm window in episode 9 that’ll make you melt from satisfaction. In regards to everything, let’s reconsider our teddies’ intentions the next time we choose to lay down in bed with one.

Waking up as the opposite sex might not be what we all hope for in the early morning, but Natsuru is going to have to get used to it really quick; as per the words of a talking stuffed Tiger, he is going to have a whole lot more to face down the line. Natsuru is now a Kampfer, and with his mystical gender bending abilities, he’s going to have to take on other Kampfers before they get the best of him. Strangely, that may be the easy part. How do you get through life when you’re constantly shifting gears? Sounds like the precursor to one hell of a school experience. Although it may be a nightmare for Natsuru, it’s nothing short of pleasurable for us peeping in on the show. Akane and Mikoto from Kampfer für die Liebe provide us with that pleasure on a silver platter during this striking special. Despite the numerous things that wanting to be the best kisser in school could imply about a person, what’s important here is how these girls let their practice run take them away right before our eyes. Go hard or go home, right? Becoming great at something takes practice; so leave the slackness at the door, because kissing class is in session. Pucker up ladies.

Looks like these best friends have something a little deeper hidden below the surface. With three years left before the closing of Misato West High, Haruka Takayama and Yuu Sonoda find their budding flowers pushing to full bloom. It all started with one kiss, and now these two lovers can’t keep their lips to themselves. But things aren’t going to keep on so smoothly when an older sister gets wind of what these two have been up to lately. Let’s hope she doesn’t catch on too quickly, because what these school girls have got going on is wrong in all the right ways; and we’re all for it. Nothing spells sexy more than a girl propped up on top of another girl, teasing us with the sweet aroma of lust. Watching Yuu situated on top of Haruka’s lap engulfed in a deep kissing serenade will make your knees fall weak. The sun may be setting in this sensual scene here at episode 4 of Sakura Trick, but love certainly is on the rise; and if it brings more beloved girls kissing moments like this, then we’re all down for it.

Protecting the weak can sometimes feel like a fool’s initiative, but this time around the payoff is impressive in many ways. After Seigi uses his martial arts skills to fend off a few no-gooders from harming a homeless man, he is repaid in the form of an interesting mark tattooed onto his palm. This tattoo, turns out to be a secret weapon, not only bringing with it immense power, but a killer female looking to retrieve it from Seigi by any means necessary. Worst of all, she has one also. Looks like Seigi is going to have to get a handle on his new weapon pretty quickly if he plans on staying alive. Watching tattoo bearing, living weapons take each other on isn’t the only sight to set your eyes upon, because in every great action series, is an even greater kissing scene. Seeing Aryabhata get down to business with Iltutmish sure says a lot, but what it says the most is that assertive women can sure orchestrate a sexy kissing scene. It may be all one sided this time around, but the magic is there, ladies and gentlemen. From boot licking to mouth sucking to cheek squeezing, all in a matter of moments. This is one escalated scene people, and we suggest you go and see exactly what it’s all about. An anime with this kind of action only forty seconds into episode 3 has to certainly have a lot more going for it that you wouldn’t want to miss out on.

Following the first season of Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya comes Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya 2wei!, and things don’t seem to be quite over for these young girls as the Class Cards from the first season they worked so hard to recover have left some strange side effects.

Who knows, but what we do know is that these girls sure know how to get busy. The dark side can be naughty in many ways, and in this steaming hot scene during this episode of the Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya 2wei! OVA, we find out just how ‘naughty’, naughty can really get. With Kuro working her way on top of Illya; encircled by the erotic haze of a babbling hot spring, the world around you may feel like it’s floating on top of cloud nine.

in the words of Uncle Ben himself; “with great power, comes great responsibility”. So when some people are blessed with power, we could only hope that they uptake the responsibility. Unfortunately, in the world of Shinsekai yori, that wasn’t exactly the case. Following a period of pandemonium, those blessed with the power of psychokinesis have isolated themselves in hopes of preventing the rebirth of the chaos that once shook the world. Amongst it all, is a young girl named Saki Watanabe. She has just awakened her powers, and looks to understand the workings of the so-called utopia she lives within. Can the dark truth of society be too much for a 12-year old girl to handle? Will the answers to her questions be too far above her level of comprehension? We’ll just have to watch in order to find out. The matter-manipulating powers that work the plot behind Shinsekai yori may have some lasting effects upon the viewer as well, because this next girls kissing scene will disperse your mind into fragments of insanity. This scene is like watching a dream turned reality; a fantasy fulfilled. Two lovely girls; Saki and Maria, trading saliva in the middle of an open field against the backdrop of a setting sun. This moment is beautifully crafted all throughout, and deserves to have your hungry eyes feast upon it. Besides, Saki goes apple bobbing in between Maria’s breasts. What else could you ask for?

[Information episodes=" 25 " aired=" Oct. 2014 – Mar. 2015 "]

Glitz and glamor is sought after by anyone who is born into this society created by man. As the saying goes, ‘what you don’t know won’t hurt you’, and for Princess Angelise Ikaruga Misurugi, she may have known too much. Having her wonderful life stripped from beneath her, the high kite floating above the clouds that was once her beautiful future is now crashing down. A life story rewritten once she is found to be a “norma”. Unable to use, or be effected by mana, she is forced to work in the military as a Paramail pilot alongside other norma. Will she be able to patch the hole and set her kite aflight again, or will her life remain torn into pieces? We don’t know what we have until it’s gone right? So with that statement out for interpretation, it’s safe to hope that we will all be grateful enough to admire this next scene that will transcend us all above reality. Three girls, one bed, and a whole lot of trading places. Only good things can come from such a combination. We can assure you, that it includes girls walking away knowing very well what each other’s lipstick tastes like. A kiss can tell you a lot about a person, and our girls; Hildegard Schlievogt aka Hilda, Rosalie, and Chris from Cross Ange are looking to get to know each other quite well as Chris explores the beautiful sculpture that are Hilda’s breasts, while Rosalie’s tongue swabs in between her lips. Anybody interested in joining?

With a name that can also be read ‘virgin’, young 16-year old Mamori Tokonome is used to catching the butt end of every joke. But her bubble of a life will soon see the world from an odd new angle after she is kidnapped and left stranded on the shore of a mysterious beach. This beach turns out to be the island of Mermaid; and on it, a new strange world awaits. Luckily, she won’t go through it alone. With the help of Mirei Shikishima, Mamori will know just what the island of Mermaid has to offer. With a passionate kiss unlocking Mamori's transformative abilities, watch as this redheaded beauty becomes a daunting blade ready for war. The power of arousal is jaw dropping to say the least. This next scene will take us to a mindset so far removed, you may never find your way back home. Yes, it is as raw and straight to the point as it is made out to be. Right at episode 1 Mirei teaches Mamori true femininity by way of mouth. With her lips suction cupped to Mamori’s, she shows off her finesse and skills at multitasking as her hand and breasts get a taste of that curvaceous wonderland as well. Looks like girls know best how to water each other's garden.

To quote Benjamin Franklin, "… in this world, nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes." Fortunately, there aren't too many anime about taxes; Death, on the other hand?

Due to their prevalence and nature, we won't be taking them into account. Instead, we'll look at anime that feature lots of on-screen deaths and an indiscriminate killing off of its characters. Here our Top 10 anime with the most deaths:

[sourceLink asin="B01IPDQTU8" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 25 " aired=" April 2013 – September 2013 "]

100 years prior to the start of the anime, mankind was attacked by mindless creatures called Titans. The Titans whose sole purpose and instinct seemed to be to feed on humans. As such, the human race was pushed to the brink of extinction. An impressive death count, no doubt, but not the one we're concerned with. Spending their lives safely behind walls separating them from the outside world where the Titans roam free, the remainder of the human race became comfortable with their lives behind the walls. Needless to say, when the Titans attack the outermost wall protecting humanity, they were unprepared, leading to an absolute massacre at the hands of the Titans. As if the insane amount of death to start off the show wasn't enough, as the show progresses, the death count only increases, taking the life of many great characters in its wake. Attack on Titan is definitely a must-watch if you're looking for death and bloodshed. Just don't get attached to too many characters, okay?


3. Corpse Party: Tortured Souls (Corpse Party Tortured Souls -Bougyakusareta Tamashii no Jukyou-)

Corpse Party dvd
[sourceLink asin="B00J7FH3YU" asin_jp="" text="" url="" ]
[Information episodes=" 4 " aired=" July 2013 "]

It's not a good idea to build a high school on the site of grisly murders. It's an even worse idea to perform a ritual in said school. Unfortunately, a group of high school friends, they didn't get the memo. As a result, the students of Kisaragi Academy are transported to a hellish reality, where they must deal with the disgruntled spirits of Heavenly Host School. Corpse Party: Tortured Souls is one of the most brutal anime out there.

Deus Ex Machina is the God of Time and Space and imaginary friend of junior high schooler, Yukiteru Amano. One day, Deus gives Yukiteru a cell phone that can record the next 90 days. What follows is a battle royale fight to the death to find the successor to Deus' throne. Despite the fact that there are only 12 participants in this survival game, Future Diary features more deaths than one might deem necessary. When the winner earns the title of "god," things tend to get dirty for everyone, even for those uninvolved with the game. Add in the fact that the game takes place over different iterations of the world, and it's easy to see how Future Diary manages to add to its death count.

[Information episodes=" 22 " aired=" July 2010 - December 2010 "]

One summer day, in the town of Sotoba, 15-year-old Megumi Shimizu goes missing. Megumi is found several days later, but due to her condition upon being found, she dies days after her rescue. What follows is a plague of death as the Shiki, a vampire like race, attempts to turn the village into a safe haven for themselves. In a fight for the village, Shiki sees the death of countless characters, both human and Shiki, alike. War isn’t pretty and that’s precisely what happens in Shiki: an all-out war. There are only so many ways to kill a vampire —stake to the heart, decapitation, or exposure to sunlight— but for the terrified villagers, it’s best to not err on the side of caution. Don’t forget there are blood-hungry Shiki on the loose as well. There are also many interesting ways to kill humans as well, and the truly vile methods are saved for characters of utmost importance. When there’s a pit of bodies, you’re guaranteed to find a trail of death leading to it. A tale of survival, Shiki offers the viewer anything but that, as the body count rises in quite a gruesome manner.

Final Thoughts

Death is inescapable, it happens to the best and worst of us. In anime, death helps us to appreciate the characters; as the saying goes, "you don't know what you've got til it's gone." But sometimes it's more than we bargained for, as we watch characters we've grown attached to die simply for the sake of dying. Sometimes, it's a character with little or no meaning. One thing's for sure, with so many deaths being handed out like candy, these anime help us to appreciate our favorite characters even more. What do you think of the list? Are there any deadly anime that we missed? Let us know in the comments below!

5 reasons why Five and Nine (Zankyou no Terror)

Warning: this article is full of explosive spoilers and it includes some sensitive content. Read at your own risk or choose another article to read instead. Yes my dear otakus, we came back to talk about one of those animes that was an authentic surprise. Zankyou no Terror was produced by Mappa (Kids on the Slope, Days), directed by Shinichiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo) and musicalized by Yoko Kanno (Wolf’s Rain, Macross Frontier). With such a killer combination, this anime has been considered by some as the best of 2014. We are living on an era of sequels, prequels, and remakes. That is one of the reasons why Zankyou no Terror stood out (something new, yeah!). And yet, this anime would not have been successful if not for its fast plot pace, unusual premise including terrorism and its short but well developed cast of characters. Among the cast of characters, we have three youngsters who survived a cruel experiment by the Japanese government: Five, Nine and Twelve. While Nine and Twelve team up to become the terrorist duo known as Sphinx, it was not revealed that Five was alive until later episodes. Five becomes a great opponent for this two, but especially for Nine. Wanna know exactly how their story goes and becomes a romance? Keep reading!

[ad_top2 class="mt40"]

1. Because Nine is a cold but idealist hacker.

Zankyou no Terror Capture 01
[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="" text="Episode 5" url="" ]

Meet Arata Kokonoe, I mean, Nine. This black haired guy is tall for his age. When he is not wearing his school uniform, he uses casual black and gray clothes. Nine could pass for the cool, handsome guy in the classroom. We even see several girls surrounding him on his first day of school, asking for his phone number. Nine’s demeanor is also mysterious, which on our opinion, gives him more points on popularity too. Although that cold gaze of him could send you directly to the North Pole… Nine is highly intelligent. It is largely due to his ability with strategy and informatics that Sphinx is such an effective combo, always avoiding to be caught. On a more personal level, Twelve has described Nine as a nice person, which is shown when he saves a sleeping girl during one of their terrorist attacks. Plus, Nine is so keen to plan such risky scenarios because he wants to uncover the inhuman experiments that the Government did on himself, Twelve, and other deceased children.

2. Because Five is a vengeful and sadistic government agent.

Zankyou no Terror Capture 02
[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="" text="Episode 8" url="" ]

Enter Five, a young woman with white hair and purple eyes. She used to be portrayed with pale yellow hair when she was small, so there is some speculation regarding the change. Anyway, five usually wears a black sailor-like outfit and combines it with purple make-up, even nail polish. Five looks and acts in a slightly childish way, but don’t let her song of “London bridge” trick you. She has a very personal agenda in the Sphinx matter. Five was called by the government of the United States to help (cof, cof, intervene, cof) with the investigation on the terrorist attacks in Tokyo. And that’s just what this lady does. When it is time to enter into action, Five is cold and effective. She is also sadistic. Five enjoys giving her opponents mental stress. Before Five arrived to Tokyo, the local police was having great difficulties to underpin Sphinx. Thus, as an expert on manipulative mind games, this lady is the perfect rival for Nine. Which lead us to the next point…

3. Because of the mind games they play together.

Zankyou no Terror Capture 03
[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="" text="Episode 7" url="" ]

Once upon a time, Five and Nine were innocent children. They were part of an experiment called the Athena Plan, which experimented on humans with a drug in order to stimulate superior cerebral functions. Many died in the process, and 26 children under the age of five were raised with the drug and a special program to train their skills. The children had numbers as names and were divided from the world. And among them, Five and Nine created a particular bond, as their intelligence level was similar. They played chess frequently, but Five was never able to defeat Nine. We also should mention here that Nine escaped with Twelve from the experimental facility, but Five was not able to follow them. This fact has tormented Nine for the rest of his life, as he has Post Traumatic Stress disorder. That means he has recurrent nightmares based on his memory of leaving Five behind, and some of them are frankly terrorifying. So, when Five comes back to Japan, Nine believes she has come for revenge. Such a misunderstanding might be more comprehensible when we see all the mental tricks Five uses ruthlessly to find Sphinx. The best duel between she and Nine is undoubtedly the airport scene from episodes 6 and 7. The place becomes a giant chess board manipulated by Five, who has Nine, Twelve ,and their friend Lisa running all over the place in order to stop a hidden bomb. However Nine won´t let Five have it her way, so he manages to get into her command center to confront her at gunpoint. Thus, these two aim at each other with superior mind games. We definitely should not… be in the middle.

4. Because of THAT plot twist.

Zankyou no Terror Capture 04
[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="" text="Episode 10" url="" ]

Things get complicated as the story of Zankyou no Terror spins towards its climax. Nine decides to turn himself to the Police, assuring he will share his story (his truth) in a Conference. Meanwhile, Five has been shown to suffer from strong headaches and is hospitalized. Although all the children subjected to the experiment will die young, Five’s condition has worsened faster than Nine´s or Twelve´s. When the US government personnel decides to chase down Nine for their own purposes, Five crawls away from bed assuring that Nine is only hers. Next comes one of the best car (and motorbike) chase scenes of the series. Nine is heading for the Conference heavily custodied and with several decoy vehicles. Five chases him in a car and Twelve tries to interfere in a motorbike. Everyone ends up crashing their vehicles, but when Five is heading towards the handcuffed Nine, her subaltern points his gun to her and tells her she is dismissed. The cold and indifferent Five simply shoots the subaltern for approaching Nine. So… she ends up betraying the organization she was working for! Wasn’t Five supposed to take Nine to the US? But on that point, she reveals that the only thing she wanted was to defeat Nine, and that she was capable of living a little longer because of him. Then, Five kisses Nine.

5. Because it was an unfinished story.

Zankyou no Terror Capture 05
[sourceLink asin="" asin_jp="" text="Episode 10" url="" ]

If at this point you are not moved or at least confused, you have not been paying attention. But before we (and Nine) are able to recover just a little bit, Five tells Nine that she is going forward, requesting him to live for her. Five shoots the gas tank from the nearest crashed car and instantly dies in the explosion. This gives Nine and Twelve enough time to escape the scene. Thanks to Five’s intervention, Sphinx was able to regroup and eventually accomplish their goal to reveal the corruption behind the government. Now we can shed a tear or two. We could guess that Five didn’t have much time left since her time at the hospital, but this was one of the shortest lived romances ever. Five and Nine were both young but trying hard to behave like adults, dealing with decisions that could affect entire countries. At least Twelve and Lisa acted more frequently like teenagers, but these two rarely had the opportunity. So, their story is very sad because it feels like it was not fully lived nor unfinished.


Final thoughts

Zankyou no Terror’s main topics were kind of serious. The story centered on rebellion and the reaffirmation of the self through violent acts after all. Nevertheless, the plot managed to fit even romance into its short length without losing its coherency. Let me explain: it would be difficult to imagine complex and traumatized characters such as Five and Nine in a more normal setting. They were conditioned since very young to be detached. Thus, the cold, calculated and ultimately ruthless way in which their relationship develops fits the anime’s topics and atmosphere. In an era where anime couples sometimes feel too generic, Five and Nine relationship dynamics was an interesting twist. Because, who could deny they cared for each other? As deeply damaged individuals, at least they tried their best to understand their thoughts. And for people with high intelligence like Five and Nine, thoughts are the most important thing they can share or manipulate to recreate reality. Did you like Five and Nine as a couple? Why or why not? Let’s not forget that we are open to all your comments. See you soon!

Superhero shows just never get old, so it’s really no surprise that we keep getting this kind of anime year after year. There are so many awesome things about them; the action, the superpowers, the heroism, the scary villains... But there is one thing that stands above all others. Something so appealing and mesmerizing that makes us go back to our childhood and say “I want to be a superhero”. You guessed it; we’re talking about superhero suits. Boku no Hero Academia is one of the top shows of the last Spring season, and it owes its great success partly to its fascinating storyline and fresh animation. However, one of this show’s strongest points, and perhaps its most attractive feature, was its set of cool looking characters. The heroes’ suits are a key element on Boku no Hero Academia, as they both reflect and define each character’s personality (apart from making them look unique and awesome!). Today, we’re going to explore some of this show’s best hero suits. This is our Top 10 best suits from Boku no Hero Academia!

[ad_top2 class="mt40 mb40"]

10. Hanta Sero

hanta-sero-boku-no-hero-academia

We begin our list with one of the most underrated student heroes, Hanta Sero. He’s not among the most powerful kids in his class, but he does have a lot of potential and, most importantly (at least for our list), he knows how to dress like a superhero. Many of his classmates intend to become professional heroes wearing casual clothes or karate outfits, or by resembling freaking Pikachu (seriously, Denki, come on!). Unlike those people, Hanta Sero actually looks like a hero, despite the fact that he shoots some kind of tape from his elbows. His flashy costume is very similar to those of the Power Rangers. Hanta wears a futuristic full-body tight black suit with white boots and a cool helmet (good for hiding his identity; some heroes keep forgetting this…). His suit has short sleeves so that his elbows are exposed and he can use his quirk properly. Hanta Sero may be one of the lamest heroes at the academy, but his badass suit certainly makes up for it.


9. Izuku Midoriya

Izuku Midoriya  Boku no Hero Academia

We know you probably expected to find our main character a bit higher on our list, but hey, let’s be real; his hero costume is just not what we were expecting. The next greatest hero is supposed to be cool, strong and awe-inspiring. Instead, we find Izuku Midoriya dressed as a peppermint-colored slender rabbit with an unsettling smile on his mask. So, this is clearly not the best looking hero suit on the show. However, during the battle at the Unforeseen Simulation Joint, Izuku is not seen with his original hero suit but with his blue gym outfit, which looks far cooler. He also has his elbow and knee pads, white gloves and a piece of his mask around his neck. This suit looks much better than the previous one and it’s definitely a step in the right direction towards becoming the greatest hero ever.


8. Ochako Uraraka

Ochako Uraraka Boku no Hero Academia

The lovely girl, Ochako Uraraka, has quite an interesting hero costume. Her suit is both girly and futuristic, although it’s a kind of old-school futuristic. This suit reminds us of those on Megaman, with its thick round forearms and boots. It looks a lot like a space suit and, considering Ochako’s quirk, that seems quite appropriate. Most of her costume is just a skin-tight dark green with pale pink suit which often makes some of her most attractive features stand out. Her accessories, namely her belt, collar, boots and forearms, are designed to press specific points on her body to neutralize the side effects of using her quirk. Basically, they keep her from puking rainbows like the time she saved Izuku. All in all, Ochako’s suit is cute, sexy, cool and also quite functional.


7. Momo Yaoyorozu

Momo Yaoyorozu Boku no Hero Academia

Momo Yaoyorozu is presented as one of the student heroes with the most potential. We’re still not sure exactly how powerful she is, but we do know for sure how hot she is. Momo is a superbabe, and her hero costume reveals pretty much everything we want to know about her. Seriously, her outfit is quite revealing. As a hero, Momo wears a skin-tight red outfit that exposes her long legs and her arms and that features a breath-taking cleavage down to her belly button. To make this babe of a hero even hotter, her suit also features a pair of sexy red boots. Apparently, having only few clothes on helps her use her quirk. Whatever the reason, she looks sexy and awesome!


6. Tsuyu Asui

Tsuyu Asui Boku no Hero Academia

Of course, not all girls need to be hot in order to look awesome, and Tsuyu Asui is the living proof of that. Given her frog-like form, Tsuyu is by far one of the weirdest looking heroes around, but that doesn’t make her any less cool or heroic. Her suit is also one of the most interesting ones, since it makes her look even more like a frog. Tsuyu’s hero costume is a green skin-tight suit with black stripes and black boots with swimming flippers on the feet. She also has big gloves for her large frog-like hands and green goggles that imitate a frog’s eyes. This outfit is clearly not among the most intimidating ones, but it’s certainly quite colorful and it looks really cute on Tsuyu. Besides, this froggy girl should not be underestimated. She can kick ass with her 65 feet long tongue!

5. Eijirou Kirishima

Eijirou Kirishima Boku no Hero Academia

Eijirou Kirishima is one of the coolest characters on the show. He’s really powerful and as competitive as Bakugou, although much nicer and friendlier. As we would expect, his superhero outfit is just as badass as he is. Plus, it allows him to show off his muscular body, so even if he doesn’t become the greatest hero he can still be quite popular with the ladies. His suit is mainly made of a ragged dark red skirt around his dark blue pants with a big “R” letter on his belt. He also has red shoulder pads shaped like gears, a pair of sturdy boots and a mask that has no other purpose than to make him look cool, since it doesn’t cover his eyes or mouth. These new heroes seem to not care at all about secret identities. At least Eijirou’s suit succeeds at making him look really tough and badass.


4. Tomura Shigaraki

Tomura Shigaraki Boku no Hero Academia

Tomura Shigaraki is the main bad guy on the show. He is a very powerful and wicked villain, and as such he needs to inspire dread in the hearts of his enemies, which he obviously achieves by wearing one of the most disturbing suits we’ve ever seen. Tomura’s costume is so scary that it looks like it was taken from Tokyo Ghoul. His villain outfit is nothing fancy; it’s quite simplistic yet effective. It consists of black pants with a plain black V-neck shirt, giving him a creepy thin guy look resembling a walking corpse. Of course, the most salient and disturbing thing about Tomura’s suit are the disembodied hands grabbing his arms, chest, neck and even his face. It’s not really clear why Tomura wears hands all over his body (perhaps it has something to do with his quirk), but if all he wants is to creep the hell out of us, then he definitely succeeded.


3. Tenya Iida

Tenya Iida Boku no Hero Academia

Tenya Iida is the class president and one of the students with the greatest potential. As such, his look as a hero is really intimidating and awe-inspiring. He wears one of the coolest suits on the show, which doesn’t exactly reflect how serious and boring he is, but it certainly portrays his toughness and sense of justice. Tenya’s hero suit resembles a paladin or a white knight who fights for justice, with a little Optimus Prime vibe to it. This suit is made of several pieces of white metallic armor and a badass helmet that completely covers Tenya’s face. Since his quirk is the “engine”, his suit is appropriately decorated with mufflers extending back from his torso. With this suit, Tenya Iida looks more awesome than any Transformer ever.

2. All Might

All Might Boku no Hero Academia

Now we have the greatest hero that ever lived, the Symbol of Peace, All Might. The best hero and the best suit obviously go hand in hand, and All Might’s suit is by far one of the coolest on the entire show. Probably no other hero or villain suit calls our attention as much as this one, although we should also consider that it’s not just the suit that looks good, but it’s All Might’s massively muscular body that also makes the suit stand out. Some might argue that this particular suit is everything but original, and they would be right. The red, white and blue body suit with golden gloves and boots can indeed seem a bit clichéd. Still, it is that traditional comic book hero look that makes this suit so appealing and awesome. It looks like a perfect fusion between Superman and Captain America, and what can possibly be any cooler than that?

1. Katsuki Bakugou

katsuki-bakugou-boku-no-hero-academia

Katsuki Bakugou is one of the main characters on the show and Izuku’s counterpart. He’s extremely proud, arrogant and aggressive. In fact, if we think about it, it’s only natural that Bakugou has such volatile temperament, since his quirk consists of creating explosions. Furthermore, his hero suit also reflects his aggressive personality (apart from giving him the coolest look in his class). Bakugou’s outfit consists of a tight fit black tank top with a big orange X on it, a metallic neck pad, black and orange strapped boots, metallic knee pads and a belt with grenades. Also, what’s really cool about this suit are the enormous grenade shaped gauntlets on Bakugou’s arms where he shoots his explosions from. This character is just so cool and badass that he completely blew our minds.

Conclusion

Well, guys, we’ve finally come to the end of our Top 10 best suits from Boku no Hero Academia. All of these awesome looking superhero suits are a big reason why this show is great. We’re really looking forward to the second season. Hopefully we’ll get more cool superheroes and suits. We might even update this list if they keep making nice suits.
