And the addition of sound and animation can expand on and enhance moments in ways just not possible in the comic form. It isn’t rare for the anime version of a manga to elevate the source material, as adaptations often rewrite characters or moments of the story with better foresight about later developments. If I had to pick a single best show of the decade, let alone the year, it would be hard not to choose Vinland Saga. Vinland captures all of that experience and focuses it into a story full of memorable characters, amazingly animated action scenes, and great character drama in the midst of much bigger historical moments. It demonstrates everything they learned from making action shows like Attack on Titan and Seraph of the End, to character dramas such as After the Rain and The Ancient Magus’ Bride. Vinland Saga has become the show I flatly recommend when asked for suggestions - a series so good it would get the same attention prestige dramas do, if only it were live-action.įor the animation studio behind the series, WIT, it feels like their capstone work for the decade. The recommendations in it were divided by genre to point people toward avenues they already liked. If you feel like something is missing, please recommend it in the comments.Ī few years back, I wrote a list of recent shows that would be great for a newcomer to anime.
So shows that started in 2018 (ie: JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind ) but didn’t end until 2019 appear on this list, not our 2018 list. Shows on this list are based on the series / season of that series ending in 2019. While it won’t be entirely comprehensive - it only includes series we’ve watched and finished - everything on the list is something we can unequivocally recommend. To highlight all of the shows that stood out after a complete watch, we’ve assembled this list of the best new anime of 2019. Some of the best shows each year don’t always make it into those previews. But it can be hard to judge a series by its cover - or at least by the first few episodes.
With each new anime season, The Verge tries to point fans to interesting new shows via seasonal previews. Hundreds of new anime series come out every year, so it can be difficult to pick out which ones are actually worth watching.
